SKP Pneumatic actuator for ball valves
- mounted on ball valves models SKG01 and SKG02
- with single or double acting actuator
- options: solenoid control valves, limit switches
- controll pressure: 2-10 bar (recommended: 6-8 bar)
More informations
The pneumatic part-turn actuator mounted on the SKG01 or SKG02 series ball valves enables the remote-controlled opening and closing of the ball valve.
The rotary actuator can optionally be equipped with 3/2-way or 5/2-way magnetic valves for electrical control.
Using the optional limit switches, feedback signals on the switching status of the ball valve can be sent to the control system.
Typical applications
The ball valves with pneumatic actuator are used wherever pipelines are to be opened or closed automatically.
The short switching times (typical < 1 second) enable a fast reaction to the requirements of the respective process.
In contrast to magnetic valves, however, pressure peaks in the pipeline caused by water hammer are avoided.
