- Características principales
- Piston actuator – High output thrust, fast response; suitable for high differential pressure applications. Single-acting version with spring return provides fail-safe action (valve moves to preset safe position upon air supply loss).
- High accuracy E/P positioner – Converts 4-20mA signal to pneumatic output for precise valve positioning; excellent linearity and repeatability.
- Globe valve trim design – Equal percentage or linear flow characteristics available to meet various control requirements.
- Hard-faced metal seat – Standard Class IV leakage; optional Class V/VI for tighter shut-off.
- Blow-out proof stem – Ensures safety under high pressure.
- Low emission packing (optional) – Meets ISO 15848 fugitive emission standards for environmentally sensitive applications.
- High temperature and corrosion resistance – Suitable materials and packing extend service to high temperature, cryogenic, and corrosive media.
- Modular accessories – Can be equipped with position feedback, limit switches, solenoid valves, filter regulators, etc., for full automation.
- Fail-Safe Configuration (Single-Acting Actuator)
Action Type | Valve Position on Air Supply Loss | Valve Position on Signal Loss |
Air-to-Open (ATO / FC) | Spring return → Fail Closed | Positioner output goes to zero → Valve closes |
Air-to-Close (ATC / FO) | Spring return → Fail Open | Positioner output goes to zero → Valve opens |
Double-acting | No spring → Fail Lock (holds last position) | Depends on positioner configuration |
Note: Valve position on signal loss depends on the positioner configuration (single-acting positioners typically output zero signal, causing the valve to return to the spring-set position).
- Optional Accessories
