The IQ3 Pro actuator automates valves in demanding environments, supporting both multi-turn and part-turn duties for isolation and modulation. Its “connected” architecture enables configuration, monitoring and data extraction via smartphone, Bluetooth handset or PC, enabling asset management and preventive maintenance.
Performance-wise, it features a robust design with double-sealed enclosure, explosion-proof certificates, continuous position tracking even when power is lost, and advanced diagnostics via onboard data-logger. These features deliver operational reliability and reduced downtime.
From a design standpoint, the IQ3 Pro uses an oil-bath lubricated drive train with independent torque and position sensing, supports Ethernet and fieldbus communications, offers handwheel override, and is mountable in any orientation with detachable thrust bases for simplified installation.
