With the EP3, EBRO has developed an innovative electropneumatic positioner for open-close and control applications that regulates control valves such as butterfly valves and knife gate valves in numerous industrial plants more smartly and efficiently. Industrial processes can thus be implemented more reliably and economically than before.
Precise control, simple handling and a robust design make it an efficient all-rounder for everyday use, both for new systems and for retrofitting in existing systems.
The new EP3 has a tried-and-tested aluminum housing, is IO-Link-capable and self-calibrating, reduces compressed air consumption, monitors butterfly valves and knife-gate valves and can be easily retrofitted thanks to its compatibility with various fittings.
Automatic calibration and precise positioning
The self-calibration of the EP3 automatically ensures optimum adjustment of the positioner. There is no need for manual adjustments. The positioning reliably corresponds exactly to the target values. This enables smooth process control.
Optimum monitoring and operating costs
The EP3 continuously monitors the status of the connected systems and automatically issues an alarm in the event of malfunctions and deviations. This enables a reliable response and minimizes costly downtimes.
The EP3 is economically efficient thanks to its reduced compressed air consumption during operation. It can be mounted on a wide range of fittings and offers easy integration into existing and new systems thanks to this standardization and compatibility. Installation and maintenance are simplified. When fully regulated, it impresses by eliminating self-consumption.
Customized complete solutions
EBRO offers customized complete solutions - now also equipped with the EP3: consisting of valve, actuator and automation technology, coordinated and supported by experts from the Hagen-based family business. All EBRO products are the result of careful development for long-term functional solutions. In the company's own research department, trained employees subject the valves and components to extensive stress and endurance tests. Based on this reliable information, EBRO can reliably guarantee the intended use of the valve and its components.
