| New rugged aluminum pneumatic actuators Apollo Valve introduced new pneumatic actuator, with an extruded aluminum body and a rugged twin rack and pinion design that delivers constant torque output over 500,000 cycles or more. The new actuators are perfectly matched to the operation of Apollo ball valves and butterfly valves. They also feature inboard and outboard travel stops for easy stroke adjustment to virtually any host valve's open or closed positions. The new Apollo-brand actuators are designed for a wide range of applications including industrial, commercial, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, automotive and food and beverage. Apollo pneumatic actuators are built for long dependable service. The body is hard-coat anodized to resist wear and corrosion. Bore finishing minimizes friction and wear. Nickel-plated steel pinions resist internal and external corrosion. Other long-life features include stainless steel assembling screws and die cast aluminum end caps and pistons. Apollo actuators are pre-lubricated at the factory for the life of the assembled unit. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
