This approach leads to overall lower costs associated with installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance, and ownership.
Rotork’s IQ3 Pro range of intelligent electric actuators features multiport selector valve (MSV) control capabilities.
This option provides accurate port positioning on MSVs. A typical application combines the output from several oil and gas wellheads. The MSV allows the plant to select one wellhead to be diverted for measurement and/or testing while the remaining wellheads are directed to a main outlet.
These ‘multiport’ actuators use data from Rotork’s patented high-resolution absolute encoder to deliver highly accurate bi-directional rotary MSV control and eliminate potential conversion errors.

Multiport control integration in the IQ3 Pro range delivers enhanced precision, reliability, and connectivity to demanding applications such as chemical processing, oil and gas production, water treatment, and pharmaceutical manufacturing, where precise and efficient management of fluid pathways is critical.
