VALV-POWR® SERIES VPVL MODEL C DOUBLE-ACTING AND SPRING-RETURN RACK-
AND-PINION COMPACT
PNEUMATIC ACTUATORS
VALV-POWR - VPVL double-opposed piston actuators combine the benefits of high cycle life, a rugged construction, and an extremely compact and symmetrical design with a unique range of features and options. They are specifically designed for fast efficient operation of ball, butterfly, and other rotary type valves. FEATURES Single-Source Responsibility 5 Valves,actuators,and accessories are designed to operate as a unit with the highest degree of compatibility. 5 Valves, actuators, and accessories can be supplied completely assembled to provide unit responsibility from a single source. Versatility
5 Modular designs with same body and end caps for double-acting and spring-return reduce inventory. Springs can be added in the field to convert double-acting to spring-return or for changes in supply pressure.
5 Failure direction can be easily reversed from spring-to-open or spring-to-close orientation simply by inverting the pistons.
■ Actuator to valve attachments comply with ISO 5211/1 and EN 12116.
5 Solenoid valve and accessory attachments comply with NAMUR VDI/VDE 3845.
I A wide range of optional accessories and control devices that include limit switches, solenoid valves, and mechanical safety lockouts are available to satisfy virtually all automated valve requirements.
5 Several models of 180 degree VPVL's are optionally available.
High Cycle Life
a Bearings on all sliding and rotating moving parts to
ensure long life. S Dual piston rack-and-pinion mechanism for simple
construction, high cycle life, and constant torque.
■ Hard-anodized PTFE-coated extruded aluminum body with honed internal surface for strength and lower coefficient of friction.
5 Mechanically multi-guided aluminum pistons for precise movement, low friction, and high cycle life.
