INTRODUCING THE ACTUATOR
HLA double acting hydraulic linear actuators, are suitable for the
operation of linear valves ( wedge gate valves, through conduit gate
valves) for ON-OFF and modulating heavy-duty service.
The actuator is made up of an hydraulic cylinder and a mounting
pedestal complete with a joint for the coupling to the valve stem of
actuator output stem. The valve is actuated in opening and in closing
position by the actuator hydraulic cylinder that is pressurized in one
or in the other direction.
The linear stroke of the valve is adjustable by means of the external
mechanical stop for upward position and by the adjustment of the
coupling of valve stem to actuator joint for the downward position.
The actuator pedestal has a flange with threaded holes to fix the
actuator to the valve.
