The StarPac 3 intelligent control system offers repeatability, accuracy and quick system response time with a small footprint and simple installation. It can stand alone or be integrated into a system, and is available for a variety of applications including oil and gas, chemical, paper, mining, industrial gases and power generation. Unique to the market, StarPac intelligent control systems give users an integrated view of the process at a single point and can improve plant operation at a lower installed cost than conventional control systems. The StarPac 3 builds on previous designs. Upgraded features include explosion-proof housing, USB and infrared interface, updated electronics, stainless steel options and enhanced positioner functions.

Features & Benefits
- StarPac 3 can improve plant operation at a lower cost than conventional systems
- Mounted directly on the valve, along with its associated pressure and temperature sensors, separate line taps are not required
- Long straight runs of piping are not required as in the case of conventional methods
- Built-in Process Sensors (P1, P2 and Temperature) substantially reduce process lag over control systems, resulting in enormous cost savings to the process
- Control Valve with a High Accuracy Digital Positioner including a valve position sensor and actuator pressure sensors
- The built-in process sensors substantially reduce process lag
- Setpoint from a Digital signal through serial data ports from DCS or personal computer
- Continuous self diagnostics, notification of alarms and errors instantly
