Rotork has introduced its IQ3 SET actuator, part of its Lifetime Management service and maintenance programme, which offers backwards compatibility with legacy actuators on sites that have non-integral starters, known as SyncroSET.

Lifetime Management helps companies manage the risk associated with ageing assets. It includes tiered maintenance options, upgrade services, planned shutdown support and life cycle services.
The IQ3 SET feature facilitates obsolescence management and future-proofs plants without affecting their infrastructure. It is a bridge between legacy products (stretching back to Rotork A-Range actuators) and investment in the latest actuation technology. It is compatible with existing site cabling and control systems, eliminating the need for new cabling and associated costs.
Ageing plant infrastructure and equipment plays an important role in the consideration of risk management. Companies can manage obsolescence concerns by replacing legacy actuators with the latest intelligent actuator platform by installing IQ3 SET. This option works with and supports the features of older versions, with seamless integration into existing plant architecture.
