DetailsFrequently Asked Questions
Technical and commercial questions common to this industry.
01 Will the Valve Stay in Position After Power Failure?
It depends on the selected fail action configuration.
- Fail-safe: The valve returns to the preset spring position after power failure.
- Fail-freeze: The valve remains at the position where the power failure occurs.
The default configuration is fail-safe unless otherwise specified.
IP6000 and IP6000d can also support fail-freeze function under power failure, air failure, and signal failure conditions.
Please confirm your fail action requirement before ordering.
