UNOX Two-Piece Double Acting Pneumatic Actuator Stainless Steel Gear Operated Ball Valve
What is a Pneumatic Actuator Stainless Steel Gear Operated Ball Valve?
A pneumatic actuator stainless steel gear operated ball valve is used to control the flow of liquids or gases passing through a pipe using a mechanical gear system. Ball valves are generally used for opening and closing the flow of a medium inside a pipeline. Gear operated ball valves are widely used in large-scale industrial facilities for controlling liquid and gas flow.
Due to their features, gear operated ball valves are commonly preferred in industrial plants. They are ideal for controlling high-pressure liquid and gas flows and are widely used in large-scale installations. In addition, they can operate under high temperature or extreme cold conditions, making them suitable for demanding industrial environments.
Depending on the connection sizes, pneumatic actuators with torque values ranging from 9 Nm to 400 Nm are used, and optional accessories such as switch boxes and directional valves can also be integrated.
Pneumatic Actuator Torque Values
- UDA 040 = 9 Nm
- UDA 052 = 25 Nm
- UDA 063 = 50 Nm
- UDA 083 = 94 Nm
- UDA 092 = 135 Nm
- UDA 105 = 270 Nm
- UDA 125 = 400 Nm
