Process Control Valves Benefit from Absolute Position Feedback
Linear position feedback for industrial valves is important for improving process control.

Robust Temposonics® technology means that there are no maintenance or recalibration costs for the sensor, even in harsh environments.
A variety of housing options (including IP69k stainless steel housings) enables installation in many types of applications. Both analog and digital interfaces are available and the technology inherently produces an absolute position reading without the need to rehome after a power cycle.
Position readings that deviate from the expected value can be used to detect possible valve malfunctions or preventive maintenance requirements.
