Apex 6000 Positioner

The APEX 6000 pneumatic positioner provides accurate valve positioning with advanced features. The housing is constructed from highly corrosion resistant resin, making it suitable for a wide range of corrosive applications. It may be used with3-15 psi pneumatic control signals (as shown), or fitted with a current-to-pressure transducer for 4-20 mA signal input. The APEX is available with many options including: limit switches, position feedback transmitter, speed controls, and our Pharos visual position indicator.

Three spool valve options make the APEX well suited for use with all pneumatic rotary actuator types including: rack-and-pinion, scotch yoke, vane, and others. The APEX is equally well-suited for use with pneumatic linear actuators and cylinders. The APEX may be installed on any actuator conforming to the NAMUR standard for accessory mounting bolt pattern and pinion height without a coupler (see Bulletin PS0010). This reduces deadband and is less expensive. Automax also offers a full line of mounting hardware for non-NAMUR actuators. The APEX housing is constructed from corrosion resistant resin for protection against the toughest chemical applications in process industries

Features

  • Non-Interactive Span Adjustment reduces calibration time.
  • Corrosion Resistant Materials. Housings and covers are constructed from high strength engineered resin
  • Optional Pharos Visual Position Indicator
  • Vibration Resistant. Low spool mass, outboard spool bearings, and locking calibration adjustments provide reliable operation under high vibration.
  • Field Upgradable. The APEX 6000 is field-upgradable to electro-pneumatic input without removing the cover.
  • Field Upgradable. The APEX 6000 is field-upgradable to electro-pneumatic input without removing the cover.
  • Captive Cover Screws permit calibration without potential for losing screws.
