Electrical Actuator Operation
The electrical actuator provides powered operation for the valve. The actuator includes a position indicator and adjustable centre stopper for both the open and closed positions.
An inbuilt micro-switch provides position feedback. The actuator also includes thermal protection and a space heater according to the specified configuration.
The standard input voltage is 230 VAC. A 24 VDC input configuration can also be provided on demand according to requirement.
BMS and PLC Compatibility
The electrical actuator configuration is specified as compliant with Building Management Systems and Programmable Logic Control applications.
This makes the valve suitable for industrial installations where electrically operated valve control and position feedback are required.
Control-panel and magnetic-sensor configurations are also available according to the applicable requirement.
Outdoor Protection
IP67 / IP68 protection is available for outdoor applications. Where the valve and actuator are exposed to continuous weather conditions, a suitable canopy is advised for enhanced protection.
Outdoor installation should consider the actual environmental conditions, electrical requirements and protection level required for the installation.
S.S 304 Disc
The valve is supplied with a stainless-steel disc specified as IS 3444 Grade 1 / ASTM A351 Grade CF8, corresponding to the S.S 304 configuration.
The disc is accurately guided between the upper and lower stainless-steel stems. An S.S 316 / CF8M disc can also be provided according to requirement.
Disc material selection should be checked against the actual pipeline medium, pressure and temperature before final selection.
S.G. Iron Body
The valve body is manufactured from S.G. Iron according to IS 1865 Grade 400/15.
The body provides the structural housing for the disc, stems, actuator base, lining and associated valve components.
Two-Piece Stem Design
The valve incorporates upper and lower stainless-steel stems. The stems are specified according to IS 6603 Grade 12 Cr12.
The two-piece stem arrangement is precisely guided between the specified PTFE and bronze bushes and connects the actuator mechanism to the valve disc.
Body Lining
The valve uses integrally moulded rubber lining to provide seating to the disc and act as a primary seal around the stem and gasket joint with matching pipe flanges.
EPDM and Nitrile are specified lining options. Neoprene, Viton, Silicon and Buna-N lining configurations can also be provided according to requirement.
Lining selection should be based on the actual operating medium, chemical compatibility, operating pressure and temperature.
Pressure and Temperature Rating
The valve is rated PN 1.6 with a maximum working pressure of 1.6 MPa.
The specified hydrostatic shell test pressure is 2.4 MPa, while the seat hydrostatic test pressure is 1.76 MPa.
The specified maximum working temperature is 90°C.
