When to Choose a Process Control Actuator?

Application Background of Process Control Actuators In many process control systems, it is necessary to achieve highly accurate and consistent control of the flow rate of liquids or gases through an automated control system (PLC/DCS). Due to the high precision required, such systems often need to make continuous and precise

Common Types of Valves and Their Features

Butterfly Valve Working Principle: A butterfly valve uses a disc to control the flow of fluids or gases. The disc is mounted on a shaft, and when the handle is turned, the disc rotates 90 degrees to allow or block the flow. Features: Simple structure, compact size, low flow resistance,

Types of Actuators and How to Choose the Right One

Actuators can be classified based on their driving method into the following categories: 1. Electric Actuators Electric actuators use an electric motor as the power source, converting electrical energy into mechanical motion to drive the valve. Advantages: ✔ Adjustable speed✔ High positioning accuracy✔ Large torque output Disadvantages: ✖ Thermal effects
