Problems solved by technology

The problem here is that it doesn't take into account the characteristics of the regulation loop
Especially in the case of small-volume pneumatically adjustable drives, there is a risk of end terminations on the reciprocating path, which could cause damage to the equipment

Embodiment Construction

[0020] according to figure 1 , a device 2 in the form of a process valve is basically inserted in the line 1 of a process-technical device not explicitly shown here. The device 2 has in its interior a closing body interacting with a valve seat 3 for controlling the quantity of process medium 5 flowing through. The closing body 4 is driven linearly by a pneumatic actuating drive 6 via a switching unit 7 as a reciprocating pull rod. The pneumatic adjustment drive 6 is fixedly connected to the device 2 via a yoke 8 . Also arranged on the yoke 8 is a position controller 9 in the form of an electronic module.

[0021] The reciprocating movement of the switching unit 7 is reported to the position regulator 9 via the position sensor 10 . For proper functioning, the detected reciprocating movement is compared by the regulating unit 12 with externally imported setpoint values ​​stored in a memory unit, and the regulating drive 6 is actuated in accordance with the determined regulati...

Abstract

A method and an electronic device are disclosed, for finding an opening point for an electropneumatic valve (13), which method or electronic device can be used in a closed control loop for position regulation of a switching element of a pneumatic actuating drive (6) for a fitting (2) which can be operated thereby. An exemplary method can include: a) energizing the electropneumatic valve (13) by a drive signal which corresponds to an estimated opening point; b) measuring control-loop characteristics for this drive signal by using sensors to detect movement of the switching element (7); c) if determined control-loop characteristics for a present opening point do not correspond to nominal presets, then varying the drive signal based on an evaluation result to produce a better-matched opening point, and the finding process then starts again with step a).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for finding an opening point in an electro-pneumatic valve which is arranged in a closed control loop for position adjustment of a switching unit of a pneumatic adjustment drive, thereby operating a device . Furthermore, the invention also relates to an electronic device for implementing the method, as well as a computer program product and a data carrier associated therewith. Background technique [0002] The invention is mainly applied in the field of pneumatic adjustment drives comprising a position regulator which adjusts a device connected to the pneumatic adjustment drive to a desired degree of opening according to a predetermined nominal value. The device can be, for example, a process valve located in the piping system of a process technology plant. Apart from this, pneumatically adjustable drives of the type of interest here are also suitable for actuating other industrial and similar devices. [0003] Prod...
