LINE-FLUID ACTUATED VALVE
The Hydrocore Line-Fluid Actuated valve is used for remote isolating of pipeline applications by using the line-fluid pressure. Is mainly used in: Industrial Water Systems, Municipal Water Supply Systems, Pump Stations, Mine Water Reticulation and Petrochemical Plants.
Benefits of the Hydrocore Line-Fluid Actuated Valve
-
No electric actuators that are expensive and that have limit switches that are seldom set correctly causing the valve to fail.
-
No gears, spindle, bushes, shafts, keys and keyways that can wear out and cause the limit switch to go out or cause the actuator to fail.
-
The valve has a superior Cv compared to other globe valves.
-
No pneumatic systems.
-
The needle valve can be set very accurately so that the valve closes at an appropriate speed so as to prevent the occurrence of water hammer.
-
The valve always has positive pressure (full column pressure) on top of the shuttle when the valve is in a closed position. This prevents valve seat leakage and seat damage. When the valve is in an open position, it prevents the valve from being in a partly open position. This ensures that there is no reduced pressure drop over the valve causing undesired energy and financial losses.
