Product features
- Remote hand station for iq3 pro and iqt3 pro actuators → matches the valve movement and control duty
- Remote interface using the same display and controls as iq3 pro, powered from the actuator → supports controlled and repeatable valve operation
- Integrated status and diagnostic functions → help maintenance teams identify operating issues
- Configurable control options → supports integration with different plant control architectures
- Documented environmental protection → supports selection for demanding installation conditions
- Manual or local operating provisions where configured → support commissioning and service work
- Rotork service documentation and spare-parts support → helps maintain the installed asset base
- Application-specific sizing → reduces the risk of under- or over-sizing the actuator
- Current and installed-base Rotork platforms can be assessed → supports planned modernisation
- AxFlow selection and service support → provides one contact for specification, quotation and lifecycle needs
Rotork IQ3 Pro Remote Hand Station is used for actuators installed in hazardous, inaccessible or inconvenient locations where dependable valve movement, clear status information and controlled process operation are important. The range is relevant to industrial users who need actuation matched to valve torque, duty cycle, environment and control architecture. Correct sizing is important because actuator selection affects valve seating, response, reliability and process availability.
The operating principle is based on remote interface using the same display and controls as IQ3 Pro, powered from the actuator. This gives operators a defined method of moving and monitoring the valve while reducing the need for separate external control components where integral controls are used. The exact configuration should be selected against valve type, required movement, power or air supply, control signal and hazardous-area requirements.
RHS Pro can operate, interrogate and configure compatible IQ3 Pro/IQT3 Pro actuators from up to 100 m away; it is not compatible with earlier IQ3 or IQT3 units. These verified parameters are useful selection points, but they do not replace sizing against the actual valve torque/thrust curve, duty, ambient conditions and site standards. AxFlow can help check the required actuator generation and configuration before quotation.
For lifecycle planning, actuator access, diagnostics, correct spare parts and a documented service strategy help reduce the risk of unplanned valve downtime. AxFlow can support product selection, service and spare-parts identification and can help assess replacement requirements when installed equipment reaches the end of its service life.
