Abstract:
In a spring body for a force transducer built into a force-transmitting part, a force-input section is provided for receiving a force, a force-output section for transmitting the force, and an elastic deformation body arranged therebetween which couples the force-output section to the force-input section such that the force received by the force-input section is transmitted to the force-output section. The elastic deformation body performs a predetermined elastic deformation movement caused by the force to be transmitted at at least one point. A coding sampling section is provided at the at least one point of the deformation body and which follows deformation movements of the at least one point.
Abstract:
A valve cage for guiding an actuator, such as a stroke piston, may be used in a control valve for adjusting a process fluid flow (e.g., a water flow) in a process plant (e.g., a food processing plant, a brewery, etc.) The control valve may include a sensor for detecting a chemical and/or biological property of the process fluid, and at least one analyzer for the process fluid that is arranged on the valve cage such that the analyzer can interact with process fluid.
Abstract:
A communication device for control interaction between operating electronics and an actuator to set a process fluid flow of a process-engineering plant can include a first communication interface configured to receive electrical signals from the operating electronics, a second communication interface configured to provide electrical actuator commands to the actuator, and a permissibility processor having a data memory that stores permissible actuator commands, the permissibility processor being configured to cause the second communication interface to provide one of the permissible actuator commands to the actuator based on an electrical signal of the electrical signals received via the first communication interface.
