Features and Benefits

Fully configurable fail-safe

Setting of position (extended, retracted) or intermediate position, flow or power. Possibility to set delay for entering/leaving failsafe mode for a reliable and optimal fail-safe function. Ability to perform quick health check of fail-safe function.

Best-in-class control

Accurate and fast control response even at very low flows in common part load conditions. Ensures full modulating control for the complete operating stroke leading to world class control and efficiencies.

Optional cloud connection

Easy remote access to data and configuration parameters allows to verify and adjust system performance.

Optional ΔT and temperature return limitation

Optimize the efficiency of your production units by ensuring optimal temperature regimes.

Change-over functionality

Possibility to switch between two operating conditions to manage seasonality or heating and cooling with the same valve in change-over applications.

High measurement accuracy

High flow and temperature measurement accuracies in all configurations (medium type, and temperature) for all flow regimes.

Compactness and limited number of components

Reduces installation time and space requirements facilitating retrofit installation.

Convenient, reliable setup

Fully customizable and commissionable using Bluetooth enabled smart device reducing commissioning and diagnostic time.
