Design and principle of operation
3 Design and principle of oper-
ation
The electrohydraulic actuator is used to posi-
tion Series 240, 250, and 280 Control
Valves.
The actuator is fastened to the valve bonnet
with a ring nut. The actuator and plug stems
are fastened together by a stem connector.
The actuator mainly consists of the actuator
housing, motor with oil pump, and cylinder
housing with piston.
Pilot valves regulate the flow of oil to and
from the piston. The actuator is equipped
with compression springs which determine
the positioning forces. Actuator versions with
spring mechanism also serve to move valve
to the fail-safe position "actuator stem re-
tracts" or "actuator stem extends" in the
event of a power supply failure.
