Despite high levels of automation there are still valves that are manually operated.
This is especially the case when the corresponding valve must only be opened or closed very seldom.

The range GHE with bronze housing is ideally suited to the operation of part-turn valves (butterfly valves and ball valves) which are preferably used in shipbuilding.

Short-time duty S2 - 15 min (open-close duty)

·         Operation modes:
 - Manual operation directly with handwheel
 - Motor operation (by electric multi-turn actuator)

·         Gearboxes are always provided with an input mounting flange

·         Clockwise rotation at input shaft results in clockwise rotation at output drive

·         Type of duty: Short-time duty S2 - 15 min (Open-close duty) and inching/positioning

·         Intermittent duty S4 - 25 % (Modulating duty only bronze)

·         They can either be operated in:
 - manual operation directly via handwheel
 - motor operation (electric multi-turn actuator)

·         Swing angle 0° to 190° or multi-turn without endstop

To perfom linear movements, e. g. in case of globe valves, the multi-turn actuator SA can be combined with the linear thrust unit LE.
In case a lever arrangement has to be operated, the linear thrust unit can be mounted on a base 

One solution for butterfly, ball/plug and globe valves. Compact actuators with intelligent functions as platform concept for tailored automation solutions.

Each PROFOX is equipped with a centrally located LED: The FOX-EYE. It provides clearly visible information about both actuator and valve status.
The FOX-EYE display scheme can be configured by the user as required.

With SQV .2 part-turn actuators for open-close duty and SQRV .2 for modulating duty paired with ACV .2 actuator controls, the proven AUMA SQ/SQR range is enhanced by variable operating time models. AUMA is spearheading market technology, offering a wide operating time range with a ratio of up to 1:10.

Actuators of the SQV type range are rated for open-close duty and positioning duty (classes A and B) / (short-time duty S2 - 15 min). 

Actuators of the SQRV type range are rated for modulating duty (class C) S4 - 25 %.

The "small" electric globe valve actuator range with integral controls. All parameters are directly set at the actuator.
The controls contain switchgears, power supply unit, interface to the DCS. The component automatically switches the actuator off, once the valve end position is reached, motor overheating is detected or a torque overload has occurred. All housing components are made of bronze, all external screws are made of stainless steel. This ensures complete resistance against sea water even over a longer time period. The actuators SVM are rated for class A and B or types of duty S2 - 15 min, the actuators SVMR for class C or types of duty S4 - 40%.
