The Azbil Smart Valve Positioner product family — AVP100, AVP300, AVP700 — provides modular and flexible solutions for pneumatic control valve actuation. These positioners are designed to drive both linear and rotary actuators, offering stable positioning, configurable output characteristics, and modern communication interfaces (HART or FOUNDATION Fieldbus depending on model).
Whether you need a compact, entry-level positioner (AVP100), a mid-level smart controller (AVP300), or a high-spec intelligent positioner with advanced diagnostics and protocol support (AVP700), Azbil offers a solution to match varied control system requirements. The series is engineered for reliability, long service life, and compatibility across global process industries.
Q1: What differences exist between AVP100, AVP300 and AVP700?
A1: AVP100 is an entry-level positioner for basic valve control, AVP300 adds smart features and HART protocol, AVP700 offers full diagnostics, extended protocol support, and advanced actuator monitoring.
Q2: Are these positioners compatible with both linear and rotary actuators?
A2: Yes. All models support standard mounting configurations for linear (stem travel) and rotary (quarter-turn or multi-turn) actuators.
Q3: Do any Azbil positioners in this series support FOUNDATION Fieldbus?
A3: Yes, selected variants of AVP700 are designed to work with FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 protocol for integration into fieldbus-based control systems.
Q4: Can the AVP700 provide predictive maintenance information?
A4: Yes. It monitors valve travel, actuator air consumption, and valve dynamics; it also supports valve signature and step-response analysis to detect wear or performance issues early.
Q5: Are there explosion-proof versions available?
A5: Yes. For hazardous or explosive environments, certain variants of AVP700 offer explosion-proof or intrinsically-safe housings with relevant certifications.
