The IDC24-AF is a diagnostic controller manufactured in SS316L housing material that offers an efficient and straightforward method for conducting partial- and full-stroke tests, as well as monitoring and diagnosing critical valve systems.
The controller is ATEX, IECEx, UKCA, ECAS-Ex and EAC Ex certified and compatible with all types of valve systems, including 1oo1, 2oo2, 2oo2, and HIPPS systems.
It features a local user interface for configuring and controlling the valve system, along with indicator LEDs to display its status. When in use and opening the explosion-proof enclosure is not feasible, the IDC24 can be controlled through MTcontrol.
Communication options for this unit include 4-20mA – HART transmitter loop, Modbus, and Foundation Fieldbus.
The controller is compatible with both hydraulic and pneumatic systems and a pressure transmitter compatible with both actuator types can be fitted to the controller.
