Shut off valves and automation
Shut off valves often comes in a compact design with a attractive price, but the negative is that they often offer a low control ability if you want to control a certain amount of flow to go thru.
Fully open or with obstacles.
Some shut off vales are designed with a closing unit that will always be inside the pipe, such as the disc on a butterfly valve, so if you have a very abrasive flow or something that can get stuck on this you should go with a fully open design.
Shut-off and control valve
Some of the shut-off valves are designed so that they to a certain level also can work as a control valve. They will of course never be able to regulate with the same precision as a full scale control valve, but for many users it will be good enough. When the valve is intended to also be used for regulating, we choose a design that has a more suitable flow characteristic.
We can deliver the valve ready set up with the follwing valve automation products:
Actuators
We have both double-acting and single-acting actuators, and based on the application we can choose between pneumatic actuators, electric actuators and hydraulic actuators.
Limit switches
Limit switches are used to send discrete electric signals to indicate valve position, typically confirming either open or closed positions, and are available as low cost mechanical limit switch boxes to compact inductive limit switches dependig of the customers need.
Other automation
Your valve can also be delivered ready set up with other automation and instrumentation of your need.
Smart valve solutions
We can deliver your valve ready set up as a smart valve to take advantages of Industry Internet of Things (IiOT) . Smart valves can also be used together with our smart product system Malibu to get a remote process monitoring and process analysis.
