Process Control / Valve Actuation Applications

PRECISION ACTUATORS FOR VALVE AND PROCESS CONTROL APPLICATIONS

In process control environments—like chemical plants, power generation facilities, oil & gas pipelines, and water treatment systems—actuators are essential to ensuring precise valve movement and reliable flow regulation. Whether adjusting a globe valve on a steam turbine or managing a butterfly valve on a pipeline, actuator performance directly affects system efficiency and safety.

Kyntronics hybrid servo actuators and servo power units are purpose-built for high-force, precision valve actuation, offering unmatched control, rugged durability, and low maintenance for mission-critical applications.

APPLICATIONS FOR KYNTRONICS ACTUATORS IN PROCESS CONTROL:

• Water & Wastewater Systems: Deliver high-force valve control with integrated fail-safe features to meet municipal and industrial safety requirements.
• Power Generation Plants: Adjust globe valves or steam turbine actuators with precision positioning and force feedback.
• Chemical Processing: Manage chemical reactant flow with servo-controlled positioning for real-time process optimization.
• Oil & Gas Pipelines: Leverage standalone hybrid electric actuators that eliminate the need for hydraulic infrastructure—ideal for remote and hazardous environments.

FEATURES THAT DIFFERENTIATE KYNTRONICS IN VALVE CONTROL:

• High Force in a Compact Package: Perfect for retrofits or new OEM systems, delivering hydraulic cylinder-level performance without the hydraulic infrastructure.
• All-Electric & DC Linear Actuator Options: Reduce energy usage and eliminate dependency on hydraulic systems with hybrid electric linear actuators.
• Closed-Loop Servo Control: Enable real-time feedback on position, force, and speed, supporting automation and precision actuator applications.
• Robust Design for Harsh Environments: Built for shock loads, pressure spikes, and continuous operation without sacrificing accuracy.
• Fail-Safe & Manual Override Features: Ensure safety and compliance with redundant operation options.
• Fieldbus Compatibility: Integrate seamlessly with fieldbus communications networks for centralized monitoring and control.

Compared to traditional hydraulic cylinders, roller screw EMAs, and pneumatic actuators, Kyntronics hybrid actuators provide an innovative actuation platform designed to optimize modern process control systems.
