Actuation

Rotork has launched its new CQ pneumatic and hydraulic valve actuators that are engineered to deliver a self-contained solution for applications demanding functional integrity and safety where space is limited.

Bonomi's new Series VF300, VF600 and VF900 raised-face flanged valves feature 30°, 60° or 90° V-shaped ports for optimal flow control. They feature an ASTM A351-CF8M stainless steel body and ball, and a 316 stainless steel blowout proof stem and meet ANSI 16.

Designed for quarter-turn, rotary or linear operation, robust Rotork CMA actuators perform numerous process control valve, metering pump and damper applications demanding precise position control and continuous modulation.

HAM-LET, a manufacturer of instrumentation valves and fittings for industrial and high purity fluid and gas delivery systems has launched its Ultra Fast (UF series) Diaphragm Valve for Atomic Layer Deposition.

AUMA has developed new actuation solutions for a range of specialized oil and gas applications, including a new approach for lift plug valves. These shut-off valves are widely adopted in high-temperature, high-pressure applications and for the conduction of media containing solids.

Flowserve Corporation, a provider of flow control products and services for the global infrastructure markets, has announced the launch of the Limitorque Pneumatic Compact (LPC) Scotch yoke actuator. Complementary to the Limitorque Pneumatic Scotch yoke (LPS) model, the LPC applies similar design philosophy as the LPS for long operational life and reliability, but in a more compact, lower-cost package.

Gems, the ISO9001:2008 and ISO13485 certified supplier of standard and custom liquid level, flow and pressure switches, miniature solenoid valves, and preassembled fluidic systems, has announced its complete range of RotorFlow® sensors.

According to a new market research report, the control valve market is expected to reach US$10.82 billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 6.85 percent between 2014 and 2020. The new report titled, Control Valve Market by Motion (Rotary, Linear), by Component (Valve Body, Actuator, and Others), by Application (Oil & Gas, Chemicals, Energy & Power, Water Management, Pharmaceuticals, Food & Beverages, and Others), & by Geography - Global Forecast to 2020, explains that the need for control valves is also expected to grow proportionately to be able to support this growth.

The ECO-Centric® Plug Valve from GA Industries, located in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania, has been newly redesigned.

The universally compatible Gemü 536 globe valve has a robust and reliable design. It was developed with a long service life and low maintenance requirements in mind. The Gemü 536 pneumatically operated 2/2-way globe valve has a low maintenance membrane actuator, which can be controlled by inert gaseous media.
