As the industrial refrigeration industry embarks toward digital transformation, Danfoss introduces the new ICAD B, taking motorized valve control and connectivity to a new level. Engineered for a wide range of applications, its well-known actuator ICAD takes a big step toward digital integration, enhanced user experience, and higher reliability. 

The ICAD B reduces complexity and increases connectivity, enabling professionals to see industrial refrigeration in a new light. Dedicated to easy set-up, trouble-free operations, and real-time monitoring, the new actuator eases workflows while the wireless interface offers remote control and adjustment, eliminating the need to climb the valve. And because it is fully backward-compatible, the ICAD B seamlessly replaces the current ICAD A.

Benefits of the ICAD B

To meet all operational needs, the ICAD B is available in a series of four variants: RS485 with display, Ethernet with display, RS485 w/o display, and Ethernet w/o display. 

Overall features and benefits of the ICAD B include: 

  • Quick set-up function to save time. 
  • Smartphone app control via Bluetooth. 
  • Easy operation with the larger display and intuitive, descriptive menu. 
  • Self-diagnostics and remote monitoring, ensuring no downtime.  
  • Multiple interfaces for easier set-up and adjustment of parameters. 
  • Enhanced operating logic designed for outstanding reliability on the most challenging conditions. 
  • Real-time monitoring and control via data communication. 
  • New mounting design for easier mounting. 
  • Forward compatibility with software-based updates providing the latest features and functionalities. 
  • Extensive testing and validation in laboratory and field test conditions to ensure trouble-free operation. 

Introduction of the ICAD B

For decades, Danfoss has offered superior solutions for industrial refrigeration,” said Joseph Miller, sales director of industrial refrigeration at Danfoss.

And now, with the introduction of the ICAD B, we enable next-level connectivity adding value for our customers with the user-friendly interface, outstanding reliability and full integration to control systems.”
