  1. Caratteristiche principali
  • 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.
  1. 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).
