ICO4-PST Solenoid Valve Options
IS Barrier

The ICO4-PST has an optional IS Barrier that

provides an Exib connection for HART that can be
opened for use without the need for a hot permit.
This facilitates easy use of handheld devices such
as the 457 communicator, Trex or suitable tablet
computers.

Manual reset

A manual reset option provides a facility to

manually reset the solenoid valve after an ESD
event. After reenergising the ESD signal the
operator must press the button to move the valve Redundant Valve Manifolds
to the open position.
This button can be incorporated into the valve or IMI manufacture Redundant Valve Manifolds that
used in a local junction box. can incorporate the ICO4-PST. These can be
configured for 1oo1, 1oo2, 2oo2 & 2oo3 solenoid
Local Control Panel valve redundant architectures. In addition, this can
simplify the supply chain, warranty, and certification
A Local Control Panel (LCP) can be used and greatly reduce the requirements for installation,
to initiate a PST and report the result. This commissioning, and servicing. The following
can be configured to match the customers components can be included in the manifolds:
requirements, to include:
Functions: - ICO4-PST
- Perform ESD - Solenoid valves
- Local ESD - Filter regulator
- Manual reset - Flow control
- Test lamps - Check valves
- Perform solenoid valve test - Pressure relief valve
Indication:
- Test pass/fail
- Process valve open/closed
- Ready to reset solenoid valve

Advanced Condition Monitoring

As the ICO4-PST captures data for pressure, position,

and time, advanced valve condition monitoring can
be performed by exporting this data in to custom
designed tools. This permits the monitoring of valve
torque parameters, such as Break To Close, over a
period of time or against other identical valves. This
can greatly help with planned and/or preventative
maintenance thus reducing downtime caused by
unexpected ESD valve failures.
