Quartz - Explosionproof On/Off Valve Monitor
The Quartz is available in explosionproof (QX), nonincendive and intrinsically safe (QN) and general purpose (QG) versions. The robust epoxy coated anodized aluminum construction makes this platform extremely durable and well suited for use in corrosive, heavy wash down environments. A broad range of switching, position transmitter and communication options may be selected to accommodate most applications.
- Wide variety of switching & communication options including solid state proximity and mechanical switches as well as communication and 4-20mA continuous outputs.
- Enclosures optimized for tough process environments
- Rapid enclosure access
- Quick set cams
- Extremely compact with space saving visual indication
- Dual shaft o-ring seals
- Switch, sensor, communication options to fit most applications
- Screw-on cover allows quick enclosure access, reduces maintenance and set-up time.
- Touch and tune switch settings allow you to make adjustments in seconds
- Visual indicator offers excellent view ability without sacrificing accessibility or adding to space requirements.
- The oil impregnated bronze bushing maintains smooth operation and eliminates the potential for shaft seizure due to actuator shaft eccentricity.
- Top inner and bottom outer shaft o-rings seal the drive bushing from both external corrosives and internal contaminants
