The AVAMO ASP/ASH actuator series are designed based on our experience we made developing previous actuator series. The system is field proven and highly reliable. The design ensures optimal performance to operate ball, butterfly and plug valves even in the harshest environmental conditions.
The actuator is designed for longevity, ensured by bronze slide blocks and nickel or Ionit Ox plated cylinders. Chromium plated rods and custom paint jobs provide an excellent protection against corrosion.
The AS-series can be used for on/off or modulating applications.
It is available in a double- or single acting version and provides up to 600.000 Nm of torque.
Versatility
AVAMO AS actuators have a modular design and can be equipped with several options. The Scotch-yoke mechanism can be driven by an air, gas or oil cylinder, and is either available as single- or double acting version. NTF also fits a spring inside of the cylinder for emergency-shut-down-applications if necessary. The cylinder can be fitted on either sides of the actuator to create a fail-close or fail-open configuration.
