Rotork announces the third generation of its flagship IQ range of intelligent non-intrusive heavy duty electric valve actuators which introduce new levels of functionality and asset management abilities.
The third generation intelligent electric actuator strengthens the pedigree of a product that has led the way in actuation technology since its first appearance in the early 1990s.
The large toughened glass wide angle indication window is the focus of attention for non-intrusive two way wireless communication and multi-functional indication, encompassing user-friendly menus for setting-up, configuration and commissioning, local position indication, valve and actuator status, asset management and diagnostic operating information.
An LCD segment display provides positional and warning icon information, whilst actuator setup and operating menus along with detailed diagnostic and operational data screens are clearly displayed in dot matrix format. Four selectable Home-screens provide a quick view of operational status and process information in real-time without having to navigate to the diagnostic screens. The four selectable screens include: Position with text status, Torque (analogue scale) & Position, Torque (numerical scale) & Position and Demand & Position.
