Electric valve drives

An electric valve actuator is a device designed for electromechanization and control of the technological process of pipeline valves.

The principle of operation of the electric valve actuator

The principle of operation of the electric valve actuator is to send an electromechanical signal from the motor to the controlled elements of the gate that closes the pipeline section. Then the main drive forces are modified by the gearbox, which causes the movement of the shut-off part of the valve.

The electric drive allows you to set any defined position of the valve due to the action of the electronic control unit. In addition, the condition of the locking device and electric drive elements is regulated..

Classification of electric drives

According to the principle of transferring the control force to the valve, there are:

• translational motion drives that overlap sections of the pipeline in a rod-like manner;
• rotary actuators that set the valve in motion by converting the rotational energy of the motor shaft using a gearbox.

Advantages of an electric valve actuator

The widespread use of an electric actuator for valve control is explained by a number of its advantages and advantages compared to other types of actuators:

• providing centralized management of all types and classes of valves;
• simple requirements for maintenance and provision of various types of fittings;
• High accuracy of device setup and positioning.

Fields of application of the electric valve actuator

Valve actuators have been widely used in the economic industry for automating the control of pipeline systems, as well as in boiler installations, ventilation and heating systems, heating stations, and industrial pipelines.
