Features & Benefits

S76_Features_Placeholder num

  • 1. High Visibility Position Indicator:

    The display indicates valve position through the full range of travel The O-ring sealed dome is made of high impact, heat, chemical and ultraviolet resistant clear polycarbonate and designed to withstand caustic wash down ensuring excellent corrosion protection.

    Weatherproof: Sizes 1 through 4 and size 6 have a top mount dome, prominently labeled and color coded yellow for open, red for close.
    See Fig. 1.
    Sizes 5 and 7 use 3: 1 auxiliary gear, will have a clear dome with green markings indicate open while red indicates closed. See Fig. 2.
    Explosionproof: Sizes 1 through 5 uses flat indicator window dial.
    See Fig 3.

  • 2. Enclosure:

    The housing is fully anodized internally and externally, with a polyester powder topcoat applied to ensure corrosion, wear, and UV resistance in the harshest environments.

  • 3. Captive Cover Bolts:

    The cover is attached to the base by captive stainless-steel bolts placed outside the sealing area.

  • 4. O-ring Seal:

    The o-ring between the cover and base provides environmental sealing preventing internal corrosion.

  • 5. Manual Override:

    Hand-operated declutch lever physically disconnects the motor drive from the handwheel for manual operation The lockable lever prevents any unauthorized operation.

  • 6. Mechanical Travel Stops:

    Designed to prevent overtravel in the open or close direction during manual operation Travel stops bolts include a locknut to prevent loosening, and seals to prevent water ingress.

  • 7. Motor:

    Fan cooled, high torque, squirrel Caged AC Induction Motor. Class F insulation. Or DC brushed type.

  • 8. Limit Switches:

    Rotary switch type for easy configuration 4 limit switches standard.
    > 2 Available for position feedback.
    > Additional limit switches available.

  • 9. Torque Switches:

    Open and close torque switches protect the valve for actuator sizes 2 and above. Switches are set at unit rating to eliminate nuisance tripping.

  • 10. Heater:

    Thermostatically controlled to combat condensation build-up in the unit.

  • 11. Local Control Station:

    Integral to actuator housing Local-Remote-Stop padlockable selector, Open-close selector, Power (white), Open/Opening (Red), Remote (Blue), Close/Closing (Green) and Fault (Yellow) LED lights Available as an option for 1 Phase and standard in 3 Phase.

  • 12. Output Drive:

    Double reduction worm gear design allows output motor torque to be transmitted to the valve The design incorporates a self-locking feature preventing external forces adversely effecting desired valve position and equipped with anti-rotation mechanism.
    > Worm: Alloy Steel
    > Worm Gear: Bronze

  • 13. Mounting:

    Optional flange sizes for easy installation to any valve type and size per ISO 5211 and MS SP-101.

  • 14. Conduit Entries:

    Incoming power and control cable connections Standard protective plastic covers.
