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 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.

Vahn-Tech DB Series funnel knife gate valve is used in service as a pneumatic residue discharge valve in pulp making, paper making and sewage treatment. This type of valve is well suited for high consistency media containing solids, fiber or residue, serving as a residue discharge valve on stock cleaners, gravity separators or pressurized screens. The "funnel" at the bottom of the collects waste discharged from the valve body during the closing stroke. This greatly reduces the wear between the body and gate, and prolongs the life cycle of the valve.

Vahn-Tech DC Series knife gate valves are linear shut off valves that are light weight with compact construction. Valves are available as manual with handwheel, or can be automated with pneumatic cylinder or electric actuator for remote operation. The arc shape of the gate of our knife gate valve is designed to be particularly suitable for cutting off fluid containing fiber or suspended particles. The knife gate valves are ideal for many applications in the process industries of Pulp & Paper, Wastewater Treatment, Mining, Sugar Making and Chemical Processing.

Vahn-Tech DK Series knife gate valves are soft sealing shut off valves that are light weight with compact construction, and convenient to install and use. Valves are in full port design and with small flow resistance. When the gate is open, direct current flows between valve and pipeline. Valves can be operated manually with handwheel, or with automatic actuator for remote operation. The cone-shape design of the gates provides strong cutting force. The die-casting rubber seats are with bi-directional sealing. The main advantage of the valves is that when fully open, the medium will not flow into the valve chest, which prevents the pulp from settling in the valve chest and thus reducing the maintenance cost.

Vahn-Tech Series DOBF is a cost-effective butterfly valve solution for isolation valve applications. Providing lighter weight, smaller face-to-face, and simple quarter-turn rotary movement, a double-offset butterfly valve design is a great solution for zero-leakage isolation relative to ball valves for large sizes. With the eccentric disc designed to reduce the rubbing of the seat it drastically reduces torque requirements for actuation while extending seat life expectancy.
-
The Vahn-Tech Series TOV and TOBF triple offset butterfly valves are designed to meet the critical zero-leakage isolation requirements for industry applications. Split into two primary design categories, floating and fixed seats, there's versatility in the selection to match your process requirements and project economics.

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.
