Positioner Specifications
The C31 Positioner is a single acting, spring
return. The piston rod extends on instrument air increase. A spring
on the piston rod end causes the piston rod to retract as instrument
air is decreased or lost. If air supply is lost, piston rod will
retract. The extending force is diminished by the spring force;
therefore, it is impossible to get 100% force in either direction.

The J21 or J22 Positioners are double acting.
The J21 starts out with the piston rod fully retracted and extends
on instrument air increase. The J22 starts out with the piston
rod fully extended and retracts on instrument air increase. 100%
force in both directions is possible with the J21 or J22.
Standard stroke lengths are 2" through 14" in 1"
increments.
