Signal Limiting Control - Applying Limiter M2LMS MS Word
There is a 4 to 20 mAdc signal that must be limited to 7 mA regardless of how low the signal drops, in order to keep a valve partially open even when the control signal may try to close it. Also the low limit needs to have adjustability independent of the high limit, in case conditions change.

For preventing the signal dropping below 7 mA, you can use a Limiter model M2LMS. Adjust the low limit to 7 mA - 25% of full-scale. The M2LMS output tracks the input signal above 7 mA, however it holds 7 mA once the input goes below it.

Controls for setting the high and low limits are fully independent. Both limits are continuously adjustable within the range from 0 to 100% of full-scale with front -accessed multi-turn screwdriver adjustments, and monitor ports are also accessed on front for easy adjustments monitoring 0 to 10 Vdc on a voltmeter proportionally to the 0 to 100% setpoint.

M-System has flexible solutions to meet your specific application and requirements. Consult our Signal Conditioners Data Library.
