  • The Vahn-Tech Series VT-SX Explosion Proof 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 Valtek VR rotary cylinder actuator is a high pressure, compact actuator with high torque and pneumatic stiffness for excellent throttling capabilities. The standard splined shaft connection eliminates backlash for precise control. Designed for supply air pressures to 150 psi (10.3 Bar) to eliminate the need for a pressure regulator. The high stiffness provides firm control from 0 to 90 degrees.
    Piston Cylinder
  • Valtek VL series spring cylinder linear actuators are powerful, compact, high-performance pneumatic actuators that provide solid throttling or on-off operation for automatic control valves. The positioner supplies air to both sides of the piston, providing stiff, precise movement and high-frequency response and quick stroke speeds.

  • 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.

  • 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.
