Product features
- Allows installation up to 100 m (328 ft) away from the actuator via standard data cable.
- Mountable on a pole or wall for flexible positioning in hazardous or inaccessible locations.
- Provides a replica of the actuator’s user interface (setup, configuration, interrogation) for remote access.
- Powered by the attached actuator (24 V DC output) — no separate supply required.
- Explosion-proof option available, suitable for hazardous-area installations.
- Double-sealed enclosure rated to IP66/IP68 (7 m for 72 hours) for durability in harsh environments.
- Direct access to actuator data-logs for local viewing and downloading.
The RHS accessory extends the control and monitoring reach of the IQ3 Pro actuator range by locating the user interface remotely, supporting scenarios where the actuator is in a hazardous or difficult-to-access position. It connects via standard data cable up to 100 m away from the actuator and provides the same configuration and monitoring functions as the actuator itself.
Performance-wise, the RHS is designed for reliability and simplicity: it is powered by the actuator’s 24 V DC output, requires no separate power input, and supports remote interrogation of data logs, simplifying asset management and reducing need for direct access to the actuator enclosure.
From a design perspective, the RHS is built for demanding environments — wall or pole mountable, the enclosure is double-sealed and rated to IP66/IP68, and optional explosion-proof certification covers hazardous zones, allowing use in oil-&-gas, petrochemical and power applications.
