PLAS with special stroking time

Linear pneumatic actuator with 560.000 N of thrust

 

Challenge

 

Operate a 16” class 1500 orbit valve in 100 s.

 

 

Solution

 

PLAS 2900k pneumatic linear spring return actuator 
with 560.000 N maximum operating output thrust and integrated manual hydraulic hand pump to operate the valve in case of lack of air supply. 

  • 80 sec. operating time in opening by air and 100 sec. in closing with spring
  • Pneumatic positioner for partial stroke test with Fieldbus communication protocol to periodically monitor the valve integrity
