I am in dire need of Bailey Positioner Model AV112311N. ABB is not being cooperative right now due to some internal changes with their computer system. Does anyone know if there is a positioner that could replace this model or another Bailey that could be bypassed to control pneumatically? HELP!

 

I tried to google the model you gave without results.

If the ABB is going out of production or they are un-cooperative you should be able to substitute a positioner of another manufacturer. Just find the pneumatic range of your valve and call your favorite instrument suppliers.

Some of the modern positioners use a lot less expensive instrument air than the old flapper nozzle style so you might be able to justify swapping them all out.
