Quartz QX/QN/QG Series On/Off Valve Controller

Brand: Metso

The Quartz is available in explosionproof (QX), non-incendive, intrinsically safe (QN), and general-purpose (QG) versions. 

The robust epoxy-coated anodized aluminum construction, and optional stainless steel version, makes this platform extremely durable and wellsuited for use in corrosive, heavy washdown environments.
Features
  • Enclosures optimized for environment
  • Rapid enclosure access
  • Faster wiring
  • Wide variety of switching & communication
  • Quick set cams are easy to adjust
  • Dual shaft o-ring seals eliminate corrosion
