Rotork assists BAE Systems in naval base actuator upgrades

Rotork has been working with BAE Systems to upgrade a collection of A-range actuators to IQ3 actuators which operate penstocks controlling movement of ships between the ocean and transitional locks and dry docks at Her Majesty’s Naval Base Portsmouth (HMNB Portsmouth).
A series of A-range actuators had reached the tip of their operational life after long service in a challenging surroundings. BAE Systems wanted to retain all the benefits of electric actuators, so IQ3 actuators had been chosen. These needed to be specially tailored by Rotork to beat problems around confined spaces and tough entry.
IQ3 actuators and IS gearboxes have been mechanically tailored in order that each actuator and gearbox might be manually operated with out coming into the confined house. เกจวัดแรงดันลมราคา designed special hand auto levers and through drive mechanisms for the actuator and gearbox to get rid of the necessity for confined area entry.
Actuators throughout the IQ vary are watertight, offering ingress protection to IP66/68 at 20 m for 10 days. They have an advanced dual stacked display with configurable knowledge logger performance, and an absolute position sensor supplies reliability and accuracy.
