Positioning controllers are used for _______________?
Correct answer: C. High loads
- A. Low loads
- B. Temperature changes
- C. High loads
- D. Flow rate changes
Explanation
A positioning controller gives an essentially on-off output, making it suitable for switching large or high-capacity loads where fine continuous control is unnecessary. It is not selected specifically for every temperature or flow application.
