  • Determining Factors in Choosing Pneumatic vs. Electric Actuators

    Determining Factors in Choosing Pneumatic vs. Electric Actuators

    Pneumatic vs Electric Actuators Since their technologies are so different, determining whether to choose a pneumatic or electric actuator for a process system may seem confusing.   Typically, electric actuators are known for their high levels of precision while pneumatic actuators are considered less expensive and easier to maintain.  Each technology has its inherent advantages and […]

  • Some Determining Factors in Valve Actuator Selection

    Some Determining Factors in Valve Actuator Selection

    When deciding to actuate a valve, whether for precision process control, inaccessibility to remote areas, for emergency fail-safe requirements or because of excessive valve operating torque, it is important to choose the proper actuator for the specific application. Valve Actuator Selection Valve actuation can be linear, part-turn or multi-turn and can be powered by a […]
