can a control valve works without positioner?why need
tunning of c/v?

Answer Posted / goutam chatterjee

first of all we cant say any valve as a control valve with
out positioner... because we know that control valve is a
final control element.. we only say any valve as a control
valve when its acted as percentage operation as per process
requirement. with out positioner this is acted as a simple
on off valve... because percentage opening not possible with
out positioner... & we need to calibration the positioner
because cv alwys maintain the process in aspect of its final
contron ability.... i.e if process need to open the cv 25%
if the positioner not calibrated then it may be open 30 or
10 % for example... thats why we need to calibrate the
positioner.....

A DP transmitter is used to measure the level of an open tank. The drain line of the tank is connected to a control valve, and is configured as, if the level of the tank is 90% the valve should get open 10%. And if the tank level is 10%, the valve should get open 90%. Draw wiring diagram and explain how to configure DP transmitter and control valve using HART communicator. If the span error at output is 1%, what will be the %opening of the control valve at 60% level of the tank?
