All positioning commands are subject to
a deadband tolerance.
The deadband sets the expected
positioning accuracy of the actuator
and is dependent on various factors
including, actuator output speed,
number of turns and valve torque. If
the deadband is set too low the valve
may ‘‘hunt’’ around the set point.

MIT sets the minimum time between
successive position commands being
actioned. It is used in situations to
reduce the number of starts per hour
and to smooth out fluctuations if
continuous positioning is implemented.
Setting the longest possible time while
maintaining acceptable control will
maximise the life of the motorised
valve.

Modbus, Profibus & DeviceNet modules
can be set to respond on loss of host
communication by positioning the
valve. Modbus checks for a loss of
general highway communications
whereas Profibus checks for a loss of
communications addressed specifically
to itself.
