Actuators
For automated applications, AMRI utilizes a
direct mounting system for its actuators.
The elimination of the bracket and coupling
provides a stronger valve/actuator
connection, gives a compact package and
eliminates the possibility of corrosion.
The most important benefit is the exact
centering of the actuator over the valve,
thus eliminating side loading on the valve
shaft.
AMRI manufactures
rack & pinion, double scotch yoke, and kinematic actuators. All of AMRI’s
actuators are made to the same high quality
standards. The Kinematic actuators,
which includes our M‑Series manual models,
utilize a special linkage system which gives
the greatest torque output at the opening
and closing of the valve. This torque
output exactly corresponds with the torque
requirements of the valve. Each pivot
point in the linkage system has roller
bearings to ensure long life. Manual,
as well as double acting and spring return
pneumatic actuators are stocked in Houston,
Texas.
