Pneumatic Actuators in Pipeline Systems

Technical solutions for large-scale valve automation

Mechanical Specifications

Torque Requirements

DN600 valves need 500-1,000 N·m torque (5,000+ N·m for double-acting models at 6-8 bar pressure).

ISO 5211 Mounting

Direct actuator mounting without adapters through standardized flange patterns and shaft alignment.

Operational Advantages

Fast Response

90° rotation in 1-5 seconds for emergency shutdowns in gas pipelines.

Fail-Safe Options

Spring-return models automatically close valves during power outages.

Durability

Stainless steel with PTFE seals withstands marine/chemical environments for 10+ years.

System Design

Air Supply Requirements

DN1000 valves need 500-1,000 liters/cycle at 7 bar, requiring high-capacity compressors.

Component Specification Purpose
Positioners 4-20 mA feedback Precise flow regulation
Mounting Supports 100-300 kg capacity Prevent valve stress

Case Studies

Water Distribution

1,200mm valves with 3,500 N·m rack-and-pinion actuators managed by PLC systems.

Oil Pipelines

DN900 valves with spring-return scotch yoke actuators meeting API 6D standards.
