The IK series is AUTORK's intelligent multi-turn electric actuator, built on internationally proven mainstream technology; with additional stroke-output components it can be configured as a quarter-turn or linear actuator. IK is AUTORK's flagship series — its functions and performance rival leading international brands; besides standard models, low-temperature, flameproof (Exd) and marine variants are available.

Main Specifications (official)

Common IK/IKT Features

• Strong self-protection: on improper operation the actuator self-protects and auto-corrects
• 4 (expandable to 8) dry-contact indication outputs (5A@250VAC or 5A@30VDC): each contact NO/NC configurable, with 27 trigger conditions including fully-open, fully-closed and protection alarms; all settable via software
• Monitoring contacts (8A@250VAC or 8A@30VDC, NO+NC) indicate the validity of the actuator's electrical system, triggered by any of: phase loss, loss of control power, local-control selected, local-stop selected, motor thermal-protection trip
