VP01
ABB Ability™ Symphony® Plus Hardware Selector
The VP01 Valve Positioner module provides control of the flow of
steam, gas, or water through a turbine by precisely regulating the
position of the inlet valves. It is intended for modulation of
hydraulic actuators via servo valves or I/H converters..
The VP01 performs closed loop control for servo valves utilizing
single or redundant position feedback devices, or open loop
control for current drive valves. It offers a response time from input
to output under 1 millisecond and can generate servo output
signals up to 500 milliamps per servo coil output. The feedback
devices can be AC or DC LVDT’s and the control output can be
Proportional-Integral or Proportional-Only.
