There are three types of positioners: Pneumatic positioners. These devices receives a pneumatic (air) signal from the controller and output a pneumatic signal to the actuator. Analog, or electro-pneumatic, positioners. Here, the input signal is electrical, rather than pneumatic. Digital, or smart, positioners. These positioners also receive an electrical signal, but it’s digital as opposed to analog. Digital positioners came on the scene about 20 years ago, but they only really started gaining popularity recently as automation has started to take off in plants and along pipelines. The main reason digital positioners are popular is that they can do much more than just control the position of the valve. The newest positioners on the market can also collect data about the valve to automatically alert users about how the valve and its assembly are performing, and even aid in diagnostics and maintenance. Since they have fewer mechanical moving parts, digital positioners last longer than their traditional pneumatic and analog counterparts. Plus, they don’t bleed any air while the valve is at rest, which reduces energy consumption
