LOCATOR, DEVICE AND METHOD FOR ELECTRONICALLY LOCATING AND READING THE SETTING OF AN ADJUSTABLE VALVE.

摘要

The invention is aimed at improving valve pinpointing and reading devices by proposing to activate a magnetic detection source allowing measurements regularly- distributed in a circle around an axis at predetermined measurement positions. An exemplary locator comprises a casing (26) provided with a mechanism for detecting and analysing the magnetic field of the magnetic dipole of the valve. It comprises : - a magnetic detection source (36) able to detect and measure the magnetic field of the magnetic centre of the valve at predetermined measurement positions distributed in a circle around an axis (X-X' ), linked to - a microprocessor (32) for analysing the measurements and for generating detection signals.
