Proper linkages of all the components that comprise automated valves are critical to the performance of process control operations. Historically, when valve automation first began, mounting kits made up of brackets and couplers to mount an actuator on top of a valve had to be machined by custom bracket manufacturers.

Since the majority of ball and butterfly valves are automated these days the process for quoting and ordering the complete package has been made more cost effective by “one stop” valve suppliers.

Cowan Dynamics has announced advancements to their “C-PAC Module” Pneumatic Manifold and the launch of the C-PAC store. The C-PAC (Cowan’s Pneumatic Actuator Control) is an out-of-the-box solution and can save up to 90% in assembly time and easily automate valve actuators without using cumbersome and costly piping to connect various automation components.

Automation helps with activities and processes without the need for personnel to physically engage in carrying them out. Automating valves is valuable for controlling flow in piping systems requiring precision control or fail-safe emergency shutoff.
