All IPEX electric actuators have a 75% duty cycle and come standard with an external visual position indicator, declutchable manual override, auxiliary limit switches, anti-condensation heater, and thermostat. IPEX electric actuators are also equipped with a corrosion-resistant technopolymer CSA-approved enclosure.

“More industrial piping applications are turning to automation as a way of increasing process efficiency,” says Mohammad Shanawani, Senior Channel Marketing Manager | Plumbing + Mechanical, Industrial.

Valve automation allows control of a multitude of valve functions with speed and precision from a centralized remote location. With increased software sophistication, entire piping systems can be operated and monitored by a central management system.

“The popularity of valve automation continues to increase,” says Shanawani. “IPEX recognizes this, and we are focused on staying ahead of the curve by providing our customers with innovative and reliable thermoplastic valve automation solutions.”

This expansion strengthens IPEX’s commitment to providing complete thermoplastic piping system solutions to the industrial sector and enhances its ability to deliver high-quality products to end users, engineers, installers, distributors, and OEMs throughout Canada.
