Thanks for the feedback!
No, this is not my brainchild. Just trying to figure out what this other controls company was thinking when they rigged this up. And No, it don't work! Claims were made that it did when it was first tested...
The 0-10V output is driving a valve that requires 4-20ma to control the valve for process control, you get the picture.
There was a falling out of parties on this project. Controls were never completed, and plenty of bugs and ghosts in this facility.
We were asked to take this over, but none of us has ever seen an analog rig set up like this, and therefore the question. I would never do it, but didn't know if this was a reliable work around before we tell them ya need new stuff! They did claim it worked for a bit, so there is a conflict here, but all are dead now, so they get the wrenches and manually position the valves.
Tom - Lots of bio-bugs here and it has an odor all about, but not as bad as a treatment plant. These valves keep the bugs happy so they can turn the squirrel cage and reduce your need for candles.
