Product Overview
The Aplisens APIS-100 Electropneumatic Positioner is configured based on actuator type (single/double acting, linear/rotary), mounting style (on actuator or remote), input option (HART/diagnostic), pneumatic fittings, manometers, and ATEX Ex ia requirements. For accurate selection and pricing, please call 865-900-8844 or email KSmith@CPSCalibrations.com.
The Aplisens APIS-100 is an electropneumatic valve positioner designed for both linear and rotary actuators. It accepts a 4–20 mA control signal with HART and can provide a 4–20 mA position feedback output (option). It offers diagnostic functions, low air consumption, programmable actuator speed, and can be mounted directly on the actuator or remotely (with external position transmitter options).
- Input (control): 4–20 mA + HART
- Position feedback output: 4–20 mA (optional)
- Actuator support: single-acting or double-acting; linear & rotary
- Modes: normal or reversible (positioner / transducer)
- Ingress protection: IP65 enclosure
- ATEX: intrinsically safe option available (Ex ia)
Fastest quote: tell us actuator type (linear/rotary, single/double acting), mounting (on actuator or remote), and whether you need EX (ATEX).

APIS-100 pricing depends on configuration. To quote correctly, we typically confirm:
| What We Need | Examples |
|---|---|
| Actuator type | Single-acting or double-acting; linear or rotary |
| Mounting | On actuator, or remote with external position transmitter (potentiometer or magnetic, IP options) |
| Distance | 0–15 m (remote mounting distance) |
| Execution | Standard (St) or Intrinsically safe ATEX (EX) |
| Input version | 4–20 mA HART (HE) or HART + diagnostics (HS) |
| Analog position transmitter | None (00) or 4–20 mA output (20) |
| Pneumatic connectors | Rp1/8" or fittings for 6/8 mm tubing (brass / stainless / PE) |
| Manometers | Standard or stainless (affects Ex temperature range) |
| Cable entry | Plastic or nickeled brass packing gland |
| Mounting kit | By actuator standard (e.g., NAMUR / ISO 5211 / VDI/VDE 38450, etc.) |
