Limit stops Inserts > Limit stops are necessary where the precise adjustment of thevalves open position is required.These are standard on all actuators up to 1600 Nm. andoptional on the two larger sizes.Actuators with double stroke adjustment are also available for those applications on high performance butterfly valves(closed position). Actuator sizes up to 1600 Nm. are fitted with drive inserts. Thisenables actuators to be directlymounted onto suitable valves and eliminates the need for a bracketand coupling type mounting kit.The increasing use of direct mounts significantly cuts the cost of...

The basic actuator may be used to open and close the valve,but if more functionality is required then the actuators speci- fication can be extended by the addition of one or more of the available accessories. These can be used to make the actuator operate faster or slower or to provide position signalling feed- back to the controller or to provide positional control. These are just a small sample of the countless additional possibilities provided by El-O-Matic pneumatic accessories. The range is extensive and is being added to all the time.
