AVK, a valve manufacturer with various operations in North and South America, recently introduced the AVK knife gate valve series 702/73 with a new linear electrical actuator. It is available in DN 50-300 with the same actuator type for the complete range.
The linear electrical actuator is a robust product used in many different industrial applications, which makes it very appropriate for use in the wastewater segment for valve actuation. It is self-locking when not in operation, features an accurate positioning and is an eco-friendly solution due to its 24V motor.
