ELECTRIC ACTUATED VALVE
The Hydrocore Electric Actuated Valve is the only globe valve that breaks away from the standard globe valve and works in an entirely different way. Instead of applying a force on a plug (disc) to regulate the flow, the Hydrocore valve uses a hydrostatically balanced shuttle to regulate the flow. Our balanced valve, requires very low operating forces to actuate. Therefore, no gearbox is required to assist in the valve's opening or closing. The absence of a gearbox to operate the valve eliminates the risk of malfunctioning and offers a far longer lifetime over traditional valves such as ball valves that rely on gearboxes to operate.
The Hydrocore valve's flow coefficient (Cv/Kv) is by far superior due to its design to the standard globe valve, thus saving tremendously on the electrical costs to operate, making it the perfect Pump Discharge Valve in the field.
FEATURES
-
Does not need a gearbox to operate
-
Superior flow coefficient (Cv/Kv)
-
Throttles and maintains the pump pressure when the downstream column is empty or partially full
-
Throttles the pump outlet when the pump is stopped to prevent water hammer
-
Can be maintained in line
-
High cavitation resistance due to design
-
Stainless steel moving internals parts
-
Cast steel body
-
Low pressure drop across valve
-
Flanges and face-to-face dimensions to customer specification
-
Closes to pre-open position if the electrical signal is lost
-
Manual override on actuator
-
Electric specifications to suit customer specifications
