Rotork - Jordan Controls rotary actuators provide intelligent communication options and a multilingual display. The IQ range offers multi- and quarter-turn isolating/regulating duty. Torque range 14 to 3,000 Nm (10 to 2,200 lbf-ft) direct drive (multi-turn only). Higher torques when combined with IS or IB gearbox, up two 40,800 Nm (30,000 lbf-ft). Quarter-turn when combined with IW gearbox up to 250,000 Nm (185,000 lbf-ft). Complete integrated motor control. Simple non-intrusive, infra-red setup and adjustment. Digital, analogue or bus system remote control and status reporting. Comprehensive software tools for plant records and valve performance analysis.
SM Series actuators are designed for closed-loop continuous modulation of rotary valves, vanes and dampers. Rotary actuators consist of ac or dc servo motors with self-contained, permanently lubricated gear trains. These devices precisely control final elements such as variable speed drives, hydraulic and pneumatic pressure and flow devices, pumps and machinery, and are used in a wide variety of industries. Precision feedback signal generation along with compact electronic servo amplifiers provide accurate reliable, closed loop motion control.
RCEL – series meet all International Standards for easy and quick mounting of actuators on valves.
The RCEL Actuator has a smooth and easy operation which considerably increases the life expectancy of the valve.
The technical advantages of the electrical actuators produced by Remote Control are much appreciated by our customers.
“Power Start” The RCEL-series has an unique rising of the rpm prior to start which results in a higher starting torque. This is necessary when valves have been sitting idle for a long time and initially need more force to be manoeuvred.
RCEL006-250 is also available with extended rotation angle and in explosion-safe design.
Accessories such as local control units or digital regulation cards and positioners can easily be installed.
Rotork - Jordan Controls manufactures electric actuators for specialised processing and environmental control valve applications. The CVA and GPSA actuator ranges apply state-of-the-art electrical and mechanical technologies to the ‘smart’ operation of linear and rotary control valves demanding continuous, repeatable modulation, with a programmable fail to position option. The range demonstrates unrivaled control valve automation, combined with advanced, non-intrusive calibration and valve diagnostic technologies.
Rotork - Jordan Controls offers a complete line of linear actuators with automatic thrust limit, including a wide choice of motors, speeds, and strokes. The devices provide accurate, dependable solutions to positioning control. Typical applications include dampers, diverter gatres, slide gates, valves, combustion controls and machinery as found in power generating stations, steel and aluminum plants, paper, mining, grain and any other industries.
With more than 40 years of experience working with dozens of major valve manufacturers, Rotork Process Controls can provide an actuator for virtually any type of valve. Engineered hardware interface is available to assure high performance. Controls are available for applications needing to remain in position, open/close on signal loss, open/close on power loss and for computer interface.
