Difference between pneumatic IGV and BOV
Thread Content
I would like to ask my senior colleagues: what is the difference between pneumatic IGVs and BOVs? I remember that BOVs are required to open quickly and close slowly; so how does an IGV function? Also, how is this slow/fast motion achieved by them? Is a damper needed? Trouble
Where are the valves used? Some have boosters, some have flow control valves, and others are implemented based on your locator

One for low selection, one for high selection; the initial opening degree of IGV is determined, while the opening degree of BOV is controlled via an amplifier. Please provide further details for the rest
On air-driven air compressors, the positioner is pneumatic, using compressed process air as auxiliary power
What do “primary elections” and “general elections” mean? Does this refer to their differences?
For ‘initial’ and ‘high’, my understanding is the difference between ‘open degree’ and ‘closed degree’.
I made a typing mistake; what was meant to be said is “choose low, choose high”. What does that mean? Could you explain it?
