May 2, 2013 - Flowserve announced Limitorque UEX electronic control package for L120 series actuators. The UEX replaces existing UEC-3 electronic controllers with a field-retrofitable, MX technology-based package. The UEX can also be installed into L120 electric actuators that are equipped with integral control packages. The UEX is designed to deliver actuation and network connectivity through five network protocols for reliable process control, and incorporates all of the UEC-3 functionality including the 20+ features of the UEC-3. Additional features include an LCD display for actuator setup, status indication in 11 languages, and position feedback via a battery-free, absolute encoder.
On-site retrofitting is designed to minimize plant downtime, aided by an easy-to-use setup through the UEX's 32-character LCD screen. The LCD screen provides actuator status and diagnostics, displaying continuous position indication and fault conditions.
