THE ROTORK IQT RANGE – THE FIRST 1/4 TURN VALVE ACTUATOR
THAT YOU CAN COMMISSION AND INTERROGATE WITHOUT
REMOVING ELECTRICAL COVERS.
Using the supplied infra-red Setting Tool to access the actuator set up
procedures, “point and shoot” setting of torque levels, position limits and
all other control and indication functions can be made safely, quickly and
conveniently, even in hazardous locations. The IQT allows commissioning
and adjustment to be carried out with the main power supply to the
actuator switched on or off.
Standard diagnostics access information about the control system, valve
and actuator status in the form of display icons and help screens.
Instantaneous valve torque and position can be monitored on the actuator
with a single key press of the Setting Tool.
The on board Datalogger captures operational and valve torque data
enabling informed maintenance choices to be made. IQ Insight software
for PC allows the Datalogger to be interrogated, as well as the complete
actuator set up to be configured and recorded.
The actuator containing the Setting Tool will be identified with a yellow
label on the terminal cover.

This manual is produced to enable a
competent user to install, operate,
adjust and inspect Rotork IQT
range valve actuators. Only persons
competent by virtue of their training
or experience should install, maintain
and repair Rotork actuators. Work
undertaken must be carried out in
accordance with the instructions in
this and any other relevant manuals.
The user and those persons working
on this equipment should be familiar
with their responsibilities under any
statutory provisions relating to the
Health and Safety of their workplace.
Due consideration of additional
hazards should be taken when using
the IQT range of actuators with other
equipment. Should further information
and guidance relating to the safe use
of the Rotork IQT range of actuators be
required, it will be provided on request.
The electrical installation, maintenance
and use of these actuators should be
carried out in accordance with the
National Legislation and Statutory
Provisions relating to the safe use of
this equipment, applicable to the site of
installation.
For the UK: Electricity at Work
`Regulations 1989 and the guidance
given in the applicable edition of the
“IEE Wiring Regulations’’ should be
applied. Also the user should be fully
aware of his duties under the Health
and Safety Act 1974.
For the USA: NFPA70, National Electrical
®
is applicable.
Code
The mechanical installation should be
carried out as outlined in this manual
and also in accordance with relevant
standards such as British Standard
Codes of Practice. If the actuator has
nameplates indicating that it is suitable
for installation in hazardous areas then
the actuator may be installed in Zone
1, Zone 21, Zone 2 and Zone 22 (or Div
1 or Div 2, class I or Class II) classified
hazardous area locations only. It should
not be installed in hazardous area
locations with an ignition temperature
less than 135°C, unless suitability for
lower ignition temperatures has been
indicated on the actuator nameplate.
It should only be installed in hazardous
area locations compatible with the gas
groups stated on the nameplate.
The electrical installation, maintenance
and the use of the actuator should be
carried out in accordance with the code
of practice relevant for that particular
Hazardous Area certification.
No inspection or repair should be
undertaken unless it conforms to the
specific hazardous area certification
requirements. Under no circumstances
should any modification or alteration be
carried out on the actuator as this could
invalidate the actuators hazardous
area approval certification. Access to
live electrical conductors is forbidden
in the hazardous area unless this is
done under a special permit to work,
otherwise all power should be isolated
and the actuator moved to a nonhazardous area for repair or attention.
WARNING: Thermostat Bypass
If the actuator is configured to bypass
the motor thermostat then the hazardous
area certification will be invalidated.
Additional electrical hazards may occur
when using this configuration.
user should ensure that any necessary
additional safety measures are considered.
The
WARNING: Enclosure Materials
IQT actuators are manufactured from
aluminium alloy with stainless steel.
The user must ensure that the operating
environment and any materials
surrounding the actuator cannot lead
to a reduction in the safe use of, or the
protection afforded by, the actuator.
Where appropriate the user must
ensure the actuator is suitably protected
against its operating environment.
WARNING: Operating by Han
With respect to handwheel operation of
Rotork electric actuators, see warning
on p3.
This actuator must only be
located in areas where the risk of
d
impact to the viewing window
is low.
Actuator may start and
operate when remote control is
selected, depending on remote
control signal status and actuator
configuration.
2
Storage
If your actuator cannot be installed
immediately store it in a dry place until
you are ready to connect incoming
cables.
If the actuator has to be installed but
cannot be cabled it is recommended
that the plastic transit cable entry plugs
are replaced with metal plugs which are
sealed with PTFE tape.
The Rotork double-sealed construction
will preserve internal electrical
components perfectly if left
undisturbed.
It is not necessary to remove any
electrical compartment covers in order
to commission the IQT actuator.
Rotork cannot accept responsibility for
deterioration caused on-site once the
covers are removed.
Every Rotork actuator has been fully
tested before leaving the factory to
give years of trouble free operation,
providing it is correctly commissioned,
installed and sealed.

Operating your
IQT Actuator
3.1 Operating by Hand
WARNING
With respect to handwheel
operation of Rotork electric
actuators, under no circumstances
should any additional lever
device such as a wheel-key
or wrench be applied to the
handwheel in order to develop
more force when closing or
opening the valve as this may
cause damage to the valve and/or
actuator or may cause the valve
to become stuck in the seated/
backseated position.
Fig. 3
To engage handwheel drive, turn
the Hand/Auto lever clockwise whilst
turning the handwheel, see Fig 3. The
lever can now be released upon which
it will return to its original position. The
handwheel will remain engaged until
the actuator is operated electrically
when it will automatically disengage
and return to motor drive. If required
the Hand/Auto lever can be locked in
either position using a padlock with a
6.5mm hasp.
3.2 Operating Electrically
Check that power supply voltage agrees
with that stamped on the actuator
nameplate. Switch on power supply. It
is not necessary to check phase rotation.
Do not operate the actuator
electrically without first checking,
using the infra-red Setting Tool,
that at least the Primary Settings
have been made
8 page 17).
(refer to Section
Selecting Local/Stop/Remote
Operation
The red selector enables either Local or
Remote control, lockable in each position
using a padlock with a 6.5mm hasp.
When the selector is locked in the Local
or Remote positions the Stop facility is still
available. The selector can also be locked
in the Stop position to prevent electrical
operation by Local or Remote control.

The range of IQT drive bushes is shown
in figure 4.3. Please refer to PUB002001 for maximum stem acceptance
details.
Fig. 4.3
4.3 Machining the Drive Bush
Once removed, the drive bush can
be machined to suit the valve stem.
Ensure machined position allows correct
orientation of actuator-to valve flange
and correct direction to close the valve.
4.4 Fitting the Drive Bush
Note: The drive bush can be fitted in
four possible positions, 90º apart. Fit
the drive bush into the centre column
ensuring that the stem orientation,
actuator position and direction
of operation are correct for valve

Mounting the Actuator
8
5.1 IQT Actuators
The IQT range of actuators are suitable
for part turn applications requiring up
to 60 starts per hour.
5.2 IQTM Actuators
The IQTM range of actuators are
suitable for modulating control
duty of up to 1200 starts per hour
in accordance with IEC 34-1 to S4
50%. Commissioning of IQTM range
actuators is identical to the standard
IQT (refer to Sections 7, 8 and 9).
5.3 IQTF Actuators
The IQTF range of actuators are suitable
for part-turn and multi-turn, non-thrust
applications requiring low speed and
low operating turns. Commissioning
of IQTF range actuators is similar to
the standard IQT (refer to Sections 7,
8 and 9).
5.4 Lifting the Actuator
(Refer to Weights and Measures page
80 for actuator weight.)
Ensure the valve is secure before fitting
the actuator, as the combination may
be top heavy and therefore unstable.
If it is necessary to lift the actuator
using mechanical lifting equipment
certified slings should be attached
as indicated in Figure 5. At all times
trained and experienced personnel
should ensure safe lifting, particularly
when mounting actuators.
WARNING:
Do not lift the actuator by the
handwheel.
A suitable mounting flange conforming
to ISO 5210 or USA Standard MSS
SP101 must be fitted to the valve.
Actuator to valve fixing must conform
to; Material Specification ISO Class 8.8,
yield strength 628 N/sq mm.
WARNING:
Do not lift the actuator and valve
combination via the actuator.
Always lift the valve/actuator
assembly via the valve.
Fig. 5
WARNING:
The actuator should be fully
supported until full valve stem
engagement is achieved and the
actuator is secured to the valve
flange.
Fig. 5.1
5.5 Securing Actuator to Valve
Before engagement ensure that the
actuator and valve are in the same
position (i.e. closed) and the drive bushmachining matches the stem position.
Actuator position can be determined
using the display (refer to section 3.3
page 4) and if necessary can be moved
using the handwheel (refer to section
3.1 page 3). It may be necessary to
adjust the stop bolts to enable sufficient
travel. Refer to section 5.6 page 9.
9
Secure actuator to valve with four
fixing bolts. Check that the cast groove
in actuator base is not obstructed see
Fig 5.1. Its purpose is to protect the
actuator in the event of a product leak
from the valve stem/gland packing.
Check base fixing bolts are tight.
5.6 Stop Bolts
It is recommended that stop bolt
adjustment be carried out by the
valvemaker/supplier before the valve
is fitted into pipework. Once installed,
the valve maker/supplier should
be consulted before stop bolt readjustment is carried out. Stop bolts
can be wired to prevent tampering.
After setting or adjustment of stop
bolts the actuator limits must be reset,
refer to Limits LC, LO page 24.
The IQT stop bolts are located below
the terminal compartment. Stop bolt
adjustment allows +/– 5º variation of
travel at each end position. Screwing
bolts in reduces movement, out
increases movement. For clockwise
closing valves the right hand bolt is the
closed stop as shown with spanner in
fig 5.2. The left is the open stop. Stop
bolts are factory set to give a nominal
90º travel.
Fig. 5.2
Stop Bolt sizes.
IQT 125 to 500: M12 bolt requiring
19mm AF spanner.
IQT1000 & 2000: M20 bolt requiring
30mm AF spanner.
Adjustment for non seating
valves types
For closed and open stop position
adjustment:
Undo stop bolt lock-nut. Move actuator
and valve to the required stopping
position (it may be necessary to
unscrew stop bolt to allow more travel).
Screw stop bolt in until a stop is felt.
Tighten stop bolt lock nut.
Adjustment for seating valves
types
For closed and open stop position
adjustment:
Undo stop bolt lock-nut. Move
actuator and valve to the required
seating position of the valve (it may be
necessary to unscrew stop bolt to allow
more travel). Screw stop bolt in until
a stop is felt and then back off by 3
turns. Tighten stop bolt lock-nut.
Reset actuator limits
Refer to Limits LC, LO page 24.

Cable Connections
10
WARNING:
Ensure all power supplies
are isolated before removing
actuator covers.
Check that the supply voltage agrees
with that stamped on actuator
nameplate.
A switch or circuit breaker must be
included in the wiring installation of
the actuator. The switch or circuit
breaker shall be mounted as close
to the actuator as possible and shall
be marked to indicate that it is the
disconnecting device for that particular
actuator. The actuator must be
protected with overcurrent protection
devices rated in accordance with
Rotork publication No. E135E Electric
motor performance data for IQT range
actuators.
WARNING:
Actuators for use on phase to
phase voltages greater than 600V
A.C.must not be used on supply
systems such as floating, or earthphase systems, where phase to
earth voltages in excess of 600V
A.C. could exist.
6.1 Earth/Ground Connections
A lug with a 6mm diameter hole is
cast adjacent to the conduit entries for
attachment of an external protective
earthing strap by a nut and bolt. An
internal earth terminal is also provided,
however it must not be used alone as
the protective Earth Connection.
6.2 Removing Terminal Cover
Using a 6mm Allen key loosen the four
captive screws evenly. Do not attempt
to lever off the cover with a screwdriver
as this will damage the “O” ring seal
and may damage the flamepath on a
certified unit.
Actuators containing a Setting Tool
fitted to the inside of the terminal
compartment cover are identified with
a self-adhesive yellow label on the
outside of the terminal compartment
cover.
The wiring code card fixed in the cover
is particular to each actuator and must
not be interchanged with any other
actuator. If in doubt check the serial
number on the code card with that of
the actuator.
Fig. 6
A plastic bag in the terminal
compartment contains: Terminal screws
and washers, spare cover “O” ring
seal,wiring diagram and instruction
book.
6.3 Cable Entry
Only appropriate certified ExplosionProof entry reducers, glands or conduit
may be used in hazardous locations.
Remove red plastic transit plugs. Make
cable entries appropriate to the cable
type and size. Ensure that threaded
adaptors, cable glands or conduit
are tight and fully waterproof. Seal
unused cable entries with a steel or
brass threaded plug. In hazardous areas
an appropriately certified threaded
blanking plug must be used.
The cable entries on the actuator
terminal housing are tapped M25
x 1.5p.
6.4 Connecting to Terminals
On EExde enclosure units connections
to the power and control terminals
must be made using AMP type 160292
ring tabs for power and earth terminals
and AMP type 34148 ring tabs for the
control terminals.
Refer to the wiring diagram inside the
terminal cover to identify functions of
terminals. Check that supply voltage
is the same as that marked on the
actuator nameplate.
Remove power terminal screen.
Begin by connecting these cables and
replace screen.
When all connections are made ensure
wiring diagram is replaced in the
terminal compartment.
6.5 Replacing Terminal Cover
Ensure cover “O” ring seal and spigot
joint are in good condition and lightly
greased before re-fitting cover.

Commissioning
11
7.1 The Setting Procedure
The Rotork IQT range of actuators is the
first that enables commissioning to be
carried out without removing covers.
Setting torque, limit and other functions
is achieved by using the Infra-Red
Setting Tool. The Setting Tool is certified
Intrinsically Safe to allow commissioning
in hazardous areas.
All the commissioning functions are
stored in non-volatile memory in the
actuator. The Setting Tool enables the
user to view all the functions in turn
via the actuator display window. As
each function is viewed its setting can
be checked and, if required, changed
within the bounds of that function.
Commissioning may be carried out with
main power switched on or off. Refer
to page 17 for Power Off Setting.
The setting procedure is divided into
two stages:
1. Basic Settings
Settings for end of travel limit
actions, torque values, limit
positions etc.
2. Configuration Settings
Settings covering the control,
indication and optional
equipment functions.
NOTE: For IQT Battery Failsafe
instructions, see Section 10 page 62.
WARNING:
All IQT actuator functions are
configured before dispatch to
Rotork standard default settings
unless alternatives have been
specified with the order. Should
difficulty be encountered during
commissioning the default
settings can be reinstated,
returning the actuator
configuration to its original
manufactured state. Site
commissioning can then begin
again
(refer to Section 9.18 page 59).

Download / Upload Function
This new feature has been introduced
with the new Rotork Setting Tool
Pro. It allows the user to download
datalogger files and download/upload
configuration files. The new tool is
weatherproof and intrinsically safe
and so it can be used safely in all
environments. For more information
refer to Section 11.1, page 70.
Setting Tool Pro Battery
Replacement
Battery status can be checked by looking
at the Infra-red transmitter window
while depressing any Setting Tool Pro
button except the download button. A
flashing red indicator should be seen.
Battery replacement must be
carried out in a safe area. To replace
the battery remove the six cap head
screws in the back of the Setting
Tool Pro. Remove the back cover to
expose the battery.
In order to maintain hazardous
area certification the actuator
Setting Tool Pro shall only be
fitted with the following AA size,
alkaline-manganese, approved
battery types:
Duracell, Coppertop, type MN1500
Duracell, Procell, type MN1500
GP, Super Alkaline, type GP15A
Other types of AA size batteries,
including Duracell, Ultra, type
MN1500, must not be fitted. For
battery replacement see Section 7.
Refit cover ensuring red indicator LED
faces the transmitter window in the
back cover.
The enclosure of the actuator Setting
Tool Pro is manufactured from the
materials:
If the actuator Setting Tool Pro is likely
to come into contact with aggressive
substances (e.g. solvents that may
affect polymetric materials), then it is
the responsibility of the user to take
suitable precautions (e.g. regular checks
as part of the routine inspections or
establishing that the materials are
resistant to the specific chemical)
that prevent it from being adversely
affected, thus ensuring that the type of
protection is not too compromised.
No form of repair must be attempted
on the actuator Setting Tool Pro.
When a button is depressed the
Setting Tool Pro transmits the relevant
instruction to the actuator by infra-red
pulses and must therefore be directly in
front of the actuator indicator window
and at a distance no greater than
0.75m.
Display Set-Up Mode
The Setting Tool and Setting Tool Pro
arrow keys are used to access and
navigate through the actuator set-up
procedure using the actuator display.
Each actuator function with it's current
setting is represented on screen by
a combination of code and text. The
Setting Tool change keys (+ and –)
allow the user to view the available
setting options.
The examples of displayed functions
