Hello,
A question that does not involve a PLC but I hope someone can help me anyway.
We are to develop a system with a simple hydraulic positioning of a cylinder. The accuracy is not critical.
I have a linear sensor that gives 4-20mA and a proportional valve with on board electronics that uses a +/-10V signal. The setpoint is a 4-20mA or 0-10V signal from an external system. I need no fancy positioning controller. Only a simple PID controller. But I have not found any standard controller that provides a +/10V output signal. Does anyone have any suggestion. The customer will sell this in systems going all over the world and want some of the "big" automation suppliers.
Thanks in advance.
Karsten
