WARNING
The battery holder in the actuator
gearcase also protects the user from
the hazardous live connections inside
the actuator and therefore it must not
be damaged. The actuator must be
isolated or disconnected if the battery
holder has to be removed from the
actuator gearcase.
A unique circuit has been incorporated
into the battery function of the IQ,
effectively reducing the overall drain and
significantly increasing the battery life.
Tests show for a typical actuator, a
battery life of 7 years can be expected.
Allowing for a conservative margin,
Rotork recommend that the battery
should be replaced every 5 years.
Battery level status is indicated by an icon
on the actuator display.
