Electric Multi-Turn Actuators for valve automation

What is a multi-turn actuator?

Multi-turn actuators are a type of actuator that are commonly used in valve automation applications. These actuators are designed to provide the necessary torque to turn the valve stem multiple times in order to open or close the valve. They are typically used in applications where precise control of the valve position is required, such as in industrial processes, water treatment plants, and oil and gas pipelines.

One of the key benefits of multi-turn actuators is their ability to provide high torque output. This allows them to turn large valves or valves that are subject to high pressure or friction. Additionally, multi-turn actuators can be equipped with a variety of control options, including digital controllers and position sensors, which allow for precise control of the valve position.

Additional information on multi-turn actuators

Multi-turn actuators are a key component in valve automation systems. These actuators are designed to provide the necessary torque and rotational force needed to operate multi-turn valves in a variety of industrial applications. Unlike linear actuators, which only provide linear motion, multi-turn actuators are able to rotate a valve multiple times, allowing for precise control over the flow of fluids or gases.

Multi-turn actuators come in a variety of sizes and designs to fit different valve types and applications. They can be powered by electric motors, hydraulic systems, or pneumatic systems, depending on the specific requirements of the application. Some multi-turn actuators are also designed to be explosion-proof, making them suitable for use in hazardous environments.

Overall, multi-turn actuators are an important component of valve automation systems, providing the necessary torque and control to ensure reliable and efficient operation of industrial processes. Their versatility and reliability make them a popular choice for a wide range of industries and applications.
