Product Short Description

The ABB TZIDC V18345-1010521001 is a high-performance, digital electro-pneumatic valve positioner designed for precise control of pneumatic actuators in industrial process systems. It serves as a critical interface between the control system (DCS/PLC) and control valves, converting a 4-20 mA analog signal into accurate pneumatic output to regulate valve position. This model is a double-acting, non-explosion-proof unit with fail-freeze functionality and integrated analog position feedback, featuring HART communication for advanced configuration, diagnostics, and remote monitoring. Built for industrial durability, it delivers high precision, reliability, and stability in harsh environments.
