Intelligent actuators increased speeds

Rotork is excited to announce that new features have been added to the industry-leading IQ3 Pro range of intelligent actuators. The new features include increased speeds for the IQT3F Pro electric modulating actuators, independent open/close speeds for part-turn actuators and closed-loop control for the multi-turn and part-turn actuators. The optional increased speed for the IQT3F Pro electric modulating actuators is available for sizes 50, 100 and 125. Adjustable speed, including a slow mode for accurate positioning and a high-speed option where faster speeds are required, making them suitable for choke valve applications. With the independent open/close speeds, customers can configure IQ3 Pro part-turn actuators' speed settings for clockwise and anti-clockwise rotation. Another feature added is closed-loop control. Closed-loop control takes the on-off/bang-bang control or PID control methodologies that are typically used in a PLC or discrete PID controller and incorporates them into the range. Multi-turn non-modulating IQ3 Pro actuators use a setpoint positioning method known as "bang-bang", while part-turn IQT3 Pro and IQ3M Pro actuators use the PID closed-loop control method.

IQ3 Pro and App

The IQ3 range is renowned for being one of the most robust and intelligent actuators in the industry, and Rotork is excited to introduce the new IQ3 Pro with full mobile App integration. This evolution enables the continual development of new features that drive digitisation and future-proofing of electric actuation. The Rotork App provides intelligent control and communication capabilities for the IQ3 Pro and is a handy way to operate and configure the actuators using a smartphone.

Skilmatic SI

Rotork introduces a compact and robust quarter-turn design to its Skilmatic SI range of self-contained electro-hydraulic actuators. The new actuator uses a rack and pinion drive for a torque output of up to 1,000 Nm (737 lbf.ft). The SI range of actuators combine the simplicity of electrical operation with the precision of hydraulic control and the reliability of mechanical spring-return fail-safe action. Typical applications for Skilmatic SI actuators include functional safety-related Emergency Shutdown (ESD) inputs and Remotely Operated Shutoff Valve (ROSoV) duties. Robustly constructed for challenging environments, SI actuators deliver a highly reliable means of safety valve positioning and intelligent management.

CKQ

Rotork extends the versatile CK range of actuators by launching a part-turn optionThe innovative Rotork CK range of modular electric valve actuators has been extended to include a new part-turn variant, known as the CKQ. The entire range has a modular design that provides flexibility and high degrees of configurability, enabling a fast order turnaround and quick delivery. CK actuators provide flow control in non-hazardous locations and are especially suited for diverse applications in harsh and demanding environments.
