Ball Valve With Pneumatic Actuator
Automated ball valve solutions designed manufactured tested supplied and supported from our usa headquarters.
Ball valve with pneumatic actuator. As you increase the intensity of the electrical signal the motor opens the valve moving a ball with a v cut opening that proportionately allows more flow as the valve opens. The type of pneumatic actuator required depends on the actuator valve. Also known as proportional v ball valves these have a motor that adjusts and regulates flow in applications with higher flow rates and pressures than solenoid valves. Actuated valves are available in brass stainless steel and pvc.
Bolt these valves to flanges. All operate on compressed air to automatically divert flow between ports more quickly than motor driven valves. Quarter turn valves ball and butterfly. To create a fail safe design consider a spring return actuated valve that uses air to help operate a valve in one direction and springs to help operate in the reverse direction.
400 series pneumatic actuators for 76 86 96 series ball valves gemini valve javascript seems to be disabled in your browser. When coupled with a solenoid pneumatic actuators also can produce torque to move cylinders or enough torque to trigger small electric devices. Actuated ball valve and actuated butterfly valve options from grainger help automate the starting and stopping of flows. Valworx actuated ball valves with electric actuators or pneumatic actuators are used for valve automation applications.
You must control the air to the actuator using either an electric pilot valve or a manual on off valve. Valves requiring linear motion gate globe or diaphragm valves typically require a pneumatic diaphragm actuator. Pneumatic actuated valves used compressed air flowing into and exhausting from an actuator to open and close the valve.
