Single-Acting Pneumatic Actuators
Single-acting pneumatic actuators excel in scenarios demanding fail-safe functionality, simplicity, and cost efficiency, offering reliable performance across multiple industries with their spring-return mechanism.
Emergency Shutdown Systems (ESD)
- Critical in oil, gas, and chemical industries for safety
- Spring-return mechanism automatically resets valves during air/power loss
-
Default positions either:
- Close to halt flow (preventing leaks)
- Open to relieve pressure (avoiding explosions)
- Essential protection against catastrophic system failures
HVAC & Ventilation Systems
- Controls dampers in air handling systems
- Automatically returns to default positions during failures
-
Critical fire safety function:
- Closes to block smoke spread
- Opens to maintain ventilation in safe areas
- Compact design fits tight spaces in ductwork
Water Treatment & Irrigation
- Ideal for small valve operations in flow control
- Low-maintenance design reduces service requirements
-
Automatic reset during air supply failures prevents:
- Dangerous overflows
- Equipment-damaging dry runs
- Reliable performance in continuous operation environments
Light Industrial Applications
- Common in packaging and assembly lines
- Perfect for simple open/close actions
- Single air line reduces installation complexity and cost
-
Energy efficient operation:
- Compressed air used only during actuation
- Spring return requires no energy input
Harsh & Remote Environments
- Thrives in mining and outdoor facilities
- Simplified design with fewer components enhances reliability
-
Superior resistance to:
- Dust contamination
- Mechanical vibration
- Corrosive environments
- Outperforms more complex alternatives in tough conditions
While unsuitable for heavy-load, high-torque applications, single-acting pneumatic actuators offer unmatched reliability in fail-safe scenarios and exceptional cost-effectiveness, making them ideal for safety-critical, low-to-moderate duty applications across multiple industries.
