• Terminal block layout customized per wiring diagram
• Feedback cam machined to customer-specified stroke profile
• Labeling and nameplate per customer requirements

Working Principle:
The P0916JY operates on the force-balance principle identical to all P0916 series models. The specific configuration (input range, output range, actuator type, mounting) is determined by the customer-provided specification. The electromagnetic force motor receives the configured input signal (4-20 mA, 1-5 VDC, or other), and the pneumatic relay outputs the configured pressure range (3-15 psi, 6-30 psi, or other) to drive the specified actuator type. The feedback linkage is machined to match the exact valve stroke and actuator geometry specified by the customer.

Advantages:

• Fully customized to exact application requirements
• OEM-ready integration with proprietary valve assemblies
• Flexible signal ranges accommodate non-standard control systems
• Special mounting fits unique installation geometries
• Single-source procurement — no field modification required

Applicable Industries:

• OEM Valve Manufacturers (integrated positioner packages)
• Custom Skid Builders
• Specialty Process Applications
• Government and Military Specifications
• Any application requiring non-standard P0916 configuration

Installation Requirements:

• Follow customer-provided installation drawing exactly
• Verify input signal range matches positioner calibration before energizing
• Confirm output pressure range matches actuator rating
• Use specified mounting hardware only
• Perform calibration per customer-provided procedure
