Monitoring & control for inaccessible actuators
22 October 2014
Providing an exact duplicate of an actuator’s own monitoring and control interface, at a distance of up to 100m, the new Remote Hand Station enables safe and secure local monitoring and control of Rotork IQ3 actuators installed in inaccessible locations.
Power for the Remote Hand Station is supplied by the actuator, with which the unit shares all the benefits of the same IP68 double O-ring sealed environmental enclosure. There is no need for expensive cabling; standard comms wiring suitable for the operating environment is all that is required between the actuator and the Remote Hand Station.
The user can remotely operate, interrogate and configure the actuator using the Rotork hand-held setting tool with its secure wireless Bluetooth link.
