The Tissin TS900 and TS905 Smart Valve Positioners are electro-pneumatic valve positioners designed to control the stroke of pneumatic control valves according to a 4–20 mA DC input signal.
The positioner receives the control signal from a control system, DCS or signal source and adjusts the air pressure supplied to the valve actuator. This allows the actuator and valve to follow the required input position.
The TS900 and TS905 share the same main control specifications. The main structural difference is the housing material. TS900 uses an aluminum die-cast body, while TS905 uses stainless steel 316. The TS905 version is therefore suited to projects where a stainless-steel housing is required.
The series includes an LCD display and four local buttons for setup and operation. Auto calibration, partial stroke testing, alarm functions and an Auto/Manual switch are included in the product design. The positioner also uses a large-flow pilot valve to support faster valve response.

The TS900 and TS905 are used with pneumatic control valves in industrial process control systems.
Typical application areas include:
Oil and gas processing
Petrochemical plants
Chemical processing
Power generation
Water and wastewater treatment
Industrial process automation
General pneumatic control valve systems
The choice between TS900 and TS905 should be based on the installation environment, housing requirement, valve configuration and project specification.
Check the input wiring and loop current first. The positioner requires a 4–20 mA DC input signal, so the signal source and wiring should be checked before mechanical troubleshooting.
Check the actuator linkage, feedback lever and calibration settings. Incorrect mechanical installation or calibration can affect the relationship between the input signal and valve position.
Check the instrument air supply pressure and air quality. The specified supply pressure is 0.14–0.7 MPa and the required air quality is Class 3 according to ISO 8573-1.
Check the air supply, actuator condition and pneumatic connections. The positioner uses a large-flow pilot valve, but the overall response also depends on the actuator, valve and air system.
HART is an optional configuration. If HART communication is required, confirm that the supplied positioner is the HART version before installation.
For replacement projects, the TS900 and TS905 can be considered for pneumatic control valve positioner applications where the required signal, air supply, stroke and mounting arrangement are compatible.
The two models should not be treated as identical mechanical replacements in every application. TS900 uses an aluminum die-cast body, while TS905 uses stainless steel 316.
When replacing an existing positioner, confirm:
Existing positioner model
Valve type
Actuator type
Linear or rotary operation
Valve stroke or rotation
Input signal
Instrument air pressure
Mounting arrangement
Feedback linkage
Explosion-proof requirements
HART requirement
Position transmitter requirement
We can help check the TS900 or TS905 configuration according to the valve and actuator information provided.
For positioner replacement projects, provide the existing model or nameplate information. This helps reduce the risk of ordering an incompatible configuration.
We also supply control valves, actuators, valve positioners and process instruments for industrial automation projects.
For project orders, we can coordinate product selection, quotation, quantity confirmation and international delivery.
For TS900/TS905 orders, we recommend confirming signal, valve stroke, actuator type, mounting and optional functions before shipment.
Stock availability depends on the TS900 or TS905 configuration, quantity and optional functions.
Standard configurations may have different availability from HART, position transmitter or alarm-switch versions. Delivery time should therefore be confirmed according to the exact configuration before ordering.
For a quotation, please provide the model, quantity and required options so the current supply schedule can be checked.
