Frequently asked questions
What is the maximum supply voltage for IQM actuators?
The actuators can be supplied with up to 480 V at 50/60 Hz.
What are the minimum pulse timing requirements for pulse control?
The minimum pulse length is 18 ms and the minimum interval between pulses is 500 ms.
Which optional module provides analogue signal control for the valve?
The Folomatic controller enables analogue current or voltage control of the valve position.
How can the actuator functions be configured remotely?
The Rotork IQ Setting Tool can read and set all actuator functions via an infrared receiver.
