Tech Talk: Actuators Running on Brushless DC Motors

With no need for compressed air, early electric actuators could operate with less sound and less maintenance than the predominant pneumatic actuator.

Dow: Better Insight into Torque Data

“The sizing of actuators for on/off valves is an issue which needs more attention in the industry. One of the problems is that there is no international standard for testing and validation of torque data by valve manufacturers. These ‘paper’ data need to be supported by documentation that proves how these data are generated.”

Valtorc’s Exclusive Fire Safe Valves and Actuators

Threaded fire safe fusible link ball valves: Fire-safe, fusible link ball valves are a great way to protect a valve line that is exposed to extreme heat.

Valve Actuators: Technologies and Trends

Traditionally, valve actuation has been less well publicized and potentially construed as less important in the world of flow control than valves. But that is changing, and at an accelerating rate. This article will explore market drivers, significant developments and emerging trends that are behind this refining focus on valve automation.
