The Vahn-Tech Series VT-S Spring-Return Fail-Safe Electric Actuators in addition to the normal function (floating control, on-off control, modulating control) are designed to provide fail-safe positioning of valves and dampers upon loss of power supply. A mechanical spring set is used to position the controlled device to either the fully OPEN or fully CLOSED position without any external power source. For ON-OFF type, a mechanical buffer is employed at the end of the spring stroke in order to reduce the dynamic effects of the spring return system. A clutch-free manual override is available as an option for standard units to provide full-time manual positioning of the valve.

The POD series is engineered for ultimate temperature control and accessibility. It encloses the control system and required plenums in a cabinet large enough for site personnel to enter. The rear of the cabinet has a drop down ramp access to the high-pressure nitrogen cylinders for when replacements are required. Nitrogen adjustment can be made without opening the heated area.With our ability to fabricate and test in the USA and Canada, we can design to build the POD series control system to your required specifications. All engineering phases necessary will be exercised with this elite control system technology.

The HK control system provides NCS series functionality with the added protection of an enclosure as well as temperature compensation through internal heating and regulation. This series encloses the entire control system with only externals components being the plenums and nitrogen cylinders. Our stands provide the ability to affix plenums or nitrogen cylinders. Other customer requested options can be integrated into this control system.With the plenum bottles still likely being exposed to the elements, we would recommend investing in our Temperature Control Accessories to minimize pressure compensation within the system.

N2X's unique Dual Valve Regulating Control system (DVRC) can control the nitrogen set point with a market leading accuracy of +/- 0.25 psi control. Using patented control algorithms while implementing a complete understanding of the application, N2X can assure you that required relief set points are accurately and reliably maintained.Not only does this technology assure that no unexpected events result in environmental release and/or OHS incidents, it reduces costly and frequent field visits due to system alarms. Our systems also increase the life of typical nitrogen consumption by not exhausting as much nitrogen as non-proportionally controlled systems.

The Limitorque LDG Direct Gas powered scotch yoke actuator series is specifically designed to be operated by high pressure natural gas, or any other high pressure pneumatic fluid up to a maximum of 105 barg (1500 psig). LDG actuators are ideal for pipeline applications where no external sources of motive power are present and provide a robust heavy duty design and long service life with industry leading maintenance intervals. This makes them the actuator of choice for installation in remote or unmanned facilities.
-
The Limitorque LHS and LHH Hydraulic Scotch Yoke actuator series are designed to meet or exceed the most current and stringent safety and reliability standards for application in the oil and gas industry. LHS and LHH are ideal where hydraulic motive power is preferred for the operation of quarter-turn valves and for applications requiring a robust heavy duty design, long service life, high-torque and high-speed operation.

The Vahn-Tech Series 4X4 packs more than double the torque of conventional rack and pinion actuators thanks to its four pistons generating torque around a centrally located pinion. With more pistons in the actuator, this allows the actuator being more compact with size reduced by more than 30% compared to double piston actuator of the same torque. With four small cylinders each located on one of four sides of the unit and at a given air pressure, the 4x4 produces the same torque output as double piston models using smaller diameter pistons and a narrower pinion. The narrower pinion allows the pistons to travel shorter distances so that they can move faster from one position to the next.
-
The Vahn-Tech Series DFS is an economic rack and pinion style pnuematic actuator, with both captured coil spring-return and double-acting configurations. With standardized accessory (VDI/VDE 3845) and valve (ISO 5211) mounting pads, packaging with Vahn-Tech and third-party valves and accessories is simplified and easy.
-
The Limitorque LRP provides durable functionality and prolonged service life through unique features such as piston support rods within the actuator, ensuring that side loads generated by the pistons are transmitted through bearings in the end cap and not the body. This eliminates the need for the body to be used as a loadbearing surface and promotes longer service life. The support rod design of the Limitorque LRP actuator distinguishes it from the standard rack and pinion design and offers reliable operation, performance stability and longer service life.

The DFS series scotch and Yoke Pneumatic Actuators are heavy-duty actuators for operating large diameter ball valves, butterfly valves, plug valves and other 90˚ rotating mechanism. Available with two yoke deigns namely symmetrical design and canted yoke design. Cylinder blocks are plated with hard chromium to increase the service life of the actuators. The piston rod and guide block connection superior surface finish and the self-lubricating bearings maximize the input energy transfer directly to the valve stem and ensure reliable operation over the service life of the actuator. Can be supplied with the complete line of controls and monitoring accessories, including hand wheel, hydraulic manual override, limit switches, solenoid valves, positioners and other control accessories.

Ever since its introduction back in the 1980s, NAF Turnex has proven its unique features and maintenance-free operation. The robust linkage system with bushing provides an optimum torque curve for quarter turn valves and eliminates play. This makes it ideal for rotary control applications. NAF Turnex is an integrated part in the NAF control valve package with a unique direct mounting concept. The actuator is also used for on/off service and has adjustable end-stops in both directions. Ever since we developed this state-of-the-art actuator the spare parts have been the same. This, combined with a unique system of sleeves, for different stem diameters, minimizes the number of spare parts.
