Actuators


The valve actuator is an electromechanical device that controls the opening and closing of valves. It can convert electrical or pneumatic signals into mechanical motion, and control the valve's opening and closing to achieve flow control of liquids or gases in pipelines. Common types of valve actuators include electric actuators, pneumatic actuators, and hydraulic actuators. Depending on the application and usage requirements, different types and functional valve actuators can be selected.

 

Valve actuators are found in various industries such as oil and gas, water treatment, chemical processing, and power generation. They are used to control the flow of fluids by regulating the open and closed positions of valves. Electric actuators are powered by electricity and offer precise control of valve position. Pneumatic actuators use compressed air to operate a piston that moves the valve stem. Hydraulic actuators, on the other hand, use hydraulic fluid to move the valve stem.

 

Valve actuators are available in different technologies including part-turn, multi-turn, and linear. Part-turn actuators are used for valves that only require a 90-degree turn, while multi-turn actuators are used for valves that require more than one full turn. Linear actuators are used for valves that move in a straight line.

 

Valve actuators have become more advanced with the advent of digital technology. They can now be controlled remotely using computers or smartphones, and can also be programmed to perform specific functions and monitor valve positions and status in real-time.

 

In selecting a valve actuator, it is important to consider the specific application, the type of valve, and the environment in which it will operate. Factors such as valve size, weight, and the force required to operate it are important considerations. Maintenance requirements, working conditions, and safety features should also be taken into account. If you have any trouble about the choice of actuator, please do not hesitate to contact us, and we will serve you wholeheartedly.
