Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between TopWorx DX and GO series position transmitters?
The TopWorx DX series are mechanical switches with reed contacts for simple open/closed signaling. The GO series are electronic transmitters with continuous 4-20mA position feedback for accurate positioning and HART communication. Choose GO for continuous position control and DX for simple end position detection.
Are TopWorx position indicators ATEX-certified?
Yes, most TopWorx series are available in ATEX-certified versions for Zone 1 (Ex d or Ex ia) and Zone 2. Check the product specifications for the exact ATEX category and gas group.
How do I mount a TopWorx position indicator on a quarter-turn valve?
TopWorx indicators are mounted via a universal mounting kit fitting standard ISO 5211 flange patterns. Ensure alignment of the indicator drive coupling with the valve shaft for accurate position reading. Consult the installation manual for the correct fastening torque.
Can I connect a TopWorx position transmitter to a fieldbus?
Yes, TopWorx supplies position transmitters with HART, Foundation Fieldbus, and PROFIBUS interfaces for connection to modern process bus systems. HART models connect directly to existing 4-20mA infrastructure with combined digital communication.
What is the delivery time for TopWorx parts?
Common TopWorx position indicators are typically available within 5-10 working days. ATEX-certified models may have a longer lead time depending on configuration. Contact us for current availability.
