Intelligent Operating System (iQ)

Get real-time data on the performance of your extraction system

Donaldson BOFA’s Intelligent Operating System (iQ) provides easy-to-access real-time data on your extraction system’s performance.

It offers multiple performance enhancements, including improved extraction efficiency, individual filter status monitoring, and integrated design features designed to lower the cost of ownership.

How It Works

The sophisticated and advanced iQ technology is built into the extraction system. The LCD screen displays real-time data in an easy-to-read format so you can monitor performance and operational values. This information can also be accessed remotely from data downloaded via USB.

Reduce Unplanned Downtime

Filter changes can be planned at a convenient time to reduce interruption to production.

The risk of costly time-consuming service call outs is avoided.

Maximize Filter Life

Independent filter monitoring provides real-time status of your filters.

Pre-blockage warnings allow you to prepare for filter changes in advance.

Stay In Control

Access real-time data for easy-to-read performance analysis.

Have visibility of any fault so you can take corrective action.
