Model 43AP Pneumatic Controller, Style B
Installation and Operation
Model 43AP Controller continuously detects the difference between a process measurement and its set point, and produces an output air signal that is a function of this difference and the type of control. The output signal is transmitted to a control valve or other control device. Theprocess measurement, set point, and output signal are indicated on the controller.

Principle of Operation
1. A differential linkage measures difference between measurement pointer and setting index positions. This error signal moves proportioning lever. 2. Proportioning lever pivots at its center on end of a flat spring. 3. This motion changes flapper nozzle relationship, causing relay to establish an output pressure. 4. Output pressure is fedback to proportioning bellows, which acts through proportioning lever to rebalance flapper nozzle. 5. Reset bellows and tank assembly are used when measurement must be maintained exactly at control point (without “offset”). 6. Derivative tank assembly is used to improve system response to a slow process.

Principle of Operation

On-Off Control
On-off control is obtained by pivoting the proportional lever about a fixed point without proportioning or reset bellows. This controller can be equipped with an automaticshutdown unit.

Differential Gap Control
Differential gap control is obtained with positive feedback..
