performance are some of the highlights of the Rotex smart Positioner, listed below are some
of its unique features:
•LCD Display
a. Large LCD display for readability
b. No abbreviation or short form used
c. User friendly interface
d. On screen display of diagnostics, alarms and error messages
•Modular design with encapsulated electronics
a. Fewer modules make it easy to install, operate and maintain.
b. Fewer numbers of internal components and moving parts, increased reliability and life span.
c. Pre-fitted gauges, enclosed in IP66 enclosures ensure lifetime guarantee and reliability.
d. Encapsulated electronics provide protection against moisture and humidity, avoiding failure
of electronics.
•Superior functionality
a. Contactless feedback, with patented algorithm.
b. Blind mount, eliminates the need to orient mounting angle.

RTX-IOM-PRODUCT-YY
Page 15 of 131
www.rotexautomation.com
•Feedback sensors
a. It has built in feedback sensor.
b. Preciservo operates with adaptive dual PID loop and ensures high accuracy, lower dead band
and extremely steady performance of positioner, Primary loop is controlling the spool position
of the Preciservo and secondary loop is controlling the actual position.
c. Dual PID loops eliminate overshoot, undershoot, hysteresis and “hunting”. ROTEX
POSIDAPT can maintain a steady state and set point with the highest degree of confidence.
d. Preciservo has metal to metal contact ensuring low friction and high sensitivity.
e. Precise manufacturing assures negligible hysteresis and dead band.
f. ROTEX Preciservo valve can vary the orifice due to primary PID loop. Hence different sizes
of actuators can be calibrated without the need of flow control valves or volume booster.
g. ROTEX Preciservo has built in self health check, ensures best performance and reliability
during calibration and testing.
•Communication
a. ROTEX POSIDAPT is compatible with Foundation fieldbus, Profibus and HART version 5 &
7.
b. It is also compatible with DTM framework version 1.2.1
c. DTM and EDD based on multi-system support configuration.
•Remote mounting
a. Remote mounting is possible with a non-contact feedback.
b. It is ideal for extreme environments and harsh conditions –high temperature, vibration,
frequency or difficult to reach locations.
c. Remote mounting cables with lengths of 3m, 5m, 7m and 10m available as standard. Special
version up to 30m is available on request.
•Diagnostics
a. Self diagnostics available with errors and recommendations.
b. Alarm based on different threshold.
c. On screen notification up to last 3 alarms or errors.
d. It can record data history for 25 years based on averaging method.
e. Monitoring parameters can be configured with three different threshold levels.
f. Each threshold level can be classified based on severity and generates a digital feedback
signal, once triggered.
g. Colour code represents nature of severity (can be communicated on HART to control system)
this enables users to take necessary preventive action.

OR IN ENERGIZED CONDITION.
CAUTION:
THE CURRENT AND VOLTAGE LIMITATION HAS TO BE OBSERVED AS PER THE TAG PLATE.
THE WIRING AND CONNECTION SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT WITH PROPER GLAND AND CARE SHOULD BE
TAKEN TO AVOID WATER SEEPAGE.
CONFIRM THE AREA IS NON-HAZARDOUS BEFORE OPENING THE COVER OF THE ENCLOSURE FOR
MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS.
THE PLUGS GIVEN ALONG WITH BOX ARE TO BE REMOVED AND METALLIC PLUG TO BE USED.
ENSURE CABLE GLAND IS PROPERLY FITTED USING SOUND ENGINEERING PRACTICE ENSURING THAT
RAIN WATER /OTHER FLUIDS DO NOT ENTER IN THE SMART POSITIONER BOX.
THE PERSON WHO OPERATES THE LIMIT SWITCH SHOULD HAVE ENOUGH KNOWLEDGE OF ELECTRICAL
ENGINEERING.
CAUTION IP67 /IP68:
ENSURE CABLE GLAND AND GASKET IS PROPERLY FITTED USING SOUND ENGINEERING PRACTICE
ENSURING THAT RAIN WATER /OTHER FLUIDS DO NOT ENTER IN THE SMART POSITIONER BOX.
TIGHTEN THE COVER BOLTS FULLY TO AVOID WATER SEEPAGE INSIDE THE SMART POSITIONER
BOX.
USE UCIL SYNCHEM MAKE GRIP SEAL CABLE JOINING COMPOUND OR EQUIVALENT TO SEAL CABLE
GLAND.FOR PRECAUTION &APPLICATION OF SEALING COMPOUND USE ORIGINAL MANUFACTURERS
OPERATIONAL MANUAL.
