Festo’s New Digital Positioners CMSH

Festo’s New Digital Positioners CMSH

 

The CMSH is an intelligent, digital positioner. It controls the positin of a process valve that is actuated by a pneumatic actuator. Thanks to the large ambient temperature range of –40°C to +80°C and its high degree of protection (IP66/67), it can also be used under harsh operating conditions. The CMSH is a 20mA loop-powered 2-wire device. An additional power supply is therefore not required.
