China Scotch yoke pneumatic actuator factory and manufacturers

Scotch yoke pneumatic actuator

Short Description:

NORTECH Scotch yoke pneumatic actuator are fit for turn-off or metering control of 90° valves (such as ball valves, butterfly valves and plug valves).

NORTECH scotch yoke actuators adopt modular design, including cylinder module, center body module and spring cartridge module.Modular components are replaceable and storable, which can meet the short supply cycle.
The all weather protection center body and yoke are made of ductile iron or cast steel. The yoke pin is made of alloy steel with excellent mechanical performance, and the adjustment bolts and fastening bolts of flange on both sides of the center body are of class 12.9 to ensure sufficient strength.
The inner wall of cylinder and the surface of piston rod are honed and plated with hard chromium，combined with the dynamic sealing design of star ring, the sealing performance is greatly improved.
Each of the NORTECH series actuators can provide long and efficient work without maintenance.

NORTECH is one of the leading China Scotch yoke pneumatic actuator Manufacturer & Supplier.

What is Scotch yoke pneumatic actuator ?

Scotch yoke pneumatic actuator may be defined as a mechanical device that converts linear force into torque to motorise quarter-turn valves. A single-acting scotch yoke actuator is made of three main components: housing containing the yoke mechanism, pressure cylinder containing the piston and spring enclosure.

Main features of Scotch yoke pneumatic actuator

Pneumatic actuators generate operating energy through the efficient use of compressed air. The instrument air builds up force or pressure which applies against the diaphragm or piston. This then moves the valve actuator to position on the valve stem and the result is mechanical motion.

Compact design offers a high torque to weight ratio
Modular Design offers easy configuration in the field
Module alignment ensured by precision machined centering rings
Torque Output ranging from 2,744 to 885,100 in-lb (310 to 100,000 Nm)
Spring End Torque ranging from 2,744 to 445,261 in-lb (310 to 50,306 Nm)
Standard premium epoxy/polyurethane coating
