Smart sensor provides continuous feedback and diagnostics

A smart valve sensor which provides continuous feedback and essential diagnostics to help plant operators ensure optimum process performance has recently been introduced by sensor specialist ifm electronic. The MVQ sensor provides outstanding, all-round position visibility at a fine resolution of 0.1º, with bright multi-coloured LED indication to help plant operators to monitor, for example, whether the valve is open or closed or if it is blocked by deposits. If used as a standard sensor the MVQ will provide three switched signals for the valve position. However, thanks to an integrated IO-Link interface the sensor becomes a real-time diagnostic device providing continuous feedback.
