ADAPTIVE VALVE CONTROL SYSTEM

Disclosed is a system to dynamically operate a valve including a direct current (DC) stepper motor. The system includes a valve detector to identify the valve and to determine whether the valve is operable in multiple operating modes. The system further includes a mode selector electrically coupled...

Zusammenfassung:	Disclosed is a system to dynamically operate a valve including a direct current (DC) stepper motor. The system includes a valve detector to identify the valve and to determine whether the valve is operable in multiple operating modes. The system further includes a mode selector electrically coupled to the valve detector. The mode selector selects an operating mode from the multiple operating modes. The system further includes a current selector electrically coupled to the mode selector. The current selector selects a target current level based on the selected operating mode. The system further includes a motor controller electrically coupled to the current selector and the DC stepper motor. The motor controller drives the DC stepper motor with a drive current at the selected target current level.
