If no bench set or spring loading is considered and the actuator is adjusted to move over the full range of its travel with a 315 PSI air signal, the process pressure can work against the actuator spring and actually force the valve plug to lift off of the seating surface, allowing process fluid to pass through the valve Once the stem length has been properly set by adjusting the stem connector, the spring adjuster must be set for the proper bench set pressure This is the pneumatic signal pressure required to lift the plug off the seat For an airtoopen control valve with a 3 to 15 PSI signal range, the “bench set” pressure would be 3 PSIActuator Benchset Basic Principles of Control Valves As already explained in Control Valve Actuator Bench Set and Valve Stroking, the bench set of a control valve is the pressure range required to stroke the valve from a fully closed to a fully open position The bench set pressure range is used to adjust the initial compression of an actuator spring with the valve assembly “on the benchHow to Adjust the Bench Set of a Control Valve
Valve Actuator Bench Set When a control valve is assembled from an actuator and a valve body, the two mechanisms must be coupled together in such a way that the valve moves between its fully closed and fully open positions with an expected range of air pressures A common standard for pneumatic control valve Control Valve Actuator Bench Set Requirements In the world of process control engineering, there’s so much to understand about automatic control valves But one factor that probably doesn’t make the Top 10 List is control valve actuator bench set, as it applies to spring and diaphragmtype actuators This factor is an oftenmisunderstood Control Valve Actuator Bench Set Requirements The graph below shows the benchset response of an actuator Actuator Benchset Response Graph The diagram above is for a direct acting, ATC – FO (airtoclose, fail open) control valve with a signal of 3psig signifying a fully open valve and 15psig a fully closed valveControl Valve Actuator Benchset and Valve Stroking
Valve Actuator Bench Set S Bharadwaj Reddy February 27, 2018 August 12, 2020 Valve actuators provide force to move control valve trim For precise positioning of a control valve, there must be a calibrated relationship between applied force and valve position Most pneumatic Bench range is the pressure needed to open or close the valve when the valve is not expose to the process fluid (not yet installed or no fluid work on it) Just simply ask the vendor to provide this data on 20% opening and 100% opening for example, 5 psig to open 20% and 15 psig to open 100%Control Valve Actuator Bench Range szvalves The 87/88 has been designed with a minimum amount of component variation, including a limited number of standard spring designs that can provide a multiple set of Bench Ranges for each actuator size Direct acting actuator is where upon increase of air supply the actuator Control Valve Actuation SlideShare
actuator: An actuator is a pneumatic hydraulic, or electrically powered device which supplies force and motion to open or close a valve airset: A regulator which is used to control the supply pressure to the valve actuator and its auxiliaries angle valve: A valve design in which one port is collinear with the valve stem or actuator, and the otherA simple “thought experiment” illustrates the problem Imagine an airtoopen, slidingstem control valve with the lower benchset pressure applied to the pneumatic actuator This should be the amount of pressure where the valve is just about to open from a fullyclosed position Now imagine slowly increasing the air pressure applied to the Common Control Valve Problems Basic Principles of Valve Size Valve Cv Actuator Size ATO 315 ATO 630 or with positioner @ 40 psi ATC 315 or with 1/2" – 4" with postioner ATO actuator is bench set @ 630 psi/ ATC actuator is bench set @ 315 psi3oring stem seal (angle style FBCVOR SanitaRy GlOBeStyle COntROl ValVeS ORinG Stem Seal Corrosion resistant coating with SST fastenersSanitary Control Valves OR Version
