Type 646 Electro-Pneumatic TransducersType 646 electro-pneumatic transducers, shown infigure 1, use a patented converter module thatconverts a 4 to 20 milliampere input signal to aproportional 0.2 to 1.0 bar (3 to 15 psig) pneumaticoutput signal. The converter module uses smallparts of minimum mass, which are balancedsymmetrically around a pivot point at the center ofthe mass. This balanced arrangement results in ahigh performance instrument that reduces sensitivityto vibration.
An integral pneumatic relay provides the highcapacity necessary to drive pneumatic control
valve/actuator assemblies without additionalboosters or positioners. The transducer alsoprovides stable, accurate operation when its outputis transmitted to small volume chambers, such as apneumatic positioner or other pneumatic instrument.Reduced sensitivity to vibration combined with highcapacity and first order lag characteristics make theType 646 transducer ideal for direct mounting oncontrol valve/actuator combinations.
Connectors and piping can be installed with eachType 646 transducer for diagnostic testing.

Valve Stroking TimeFigure 3 shows relative times for loading andexhausting an actuator. Stroking time depends uponthe size of the actuator, travel, relay characteristicsand the magnitude and rate of change of the inputsignal. If stroking time is critical, contact yourEmerson Process Management sales office.
