Lowest Cost of Ownership
Reduction of Down Time:
The simple design of the K-TORK actuator eliminates many of the flaws that cause traditional rack & pinions and scotch yokes to fail. With elimination of o-rings and leak paths our actuator has a high cycle life that is unmatched.
The elimination of leak paths along with K-TORK’s high performance accessories gives the actuator an extremely low loss of air in any state. With cost reduction focusing on air consumption in many plants this advantage makes K-TORK a smart choice.
NAMUR Dimensions:
Integral NAMUR dimensions on K-TORK’s top mount and solenoid mount make give users an easy, cost effective transition to the actuator. With no modifications needed to mount NAMUR accessories to the actuator, plants that currently have NAMUR standards will not have to modify or stock any new components to integrate the actuator into their process.
Reliability
Accuracy:The operator will always know exactly what position the valve is in because the vane and shaft are one solid piece of machined steel that is the only moving part of the actuator. This lack of hysteresis and linear to rotary motion gives K-TORK the accuracy it needs to be the leader in ¼-turn modulating applications.
Critical Applications:
The high cycle life and high operating pressure of the actuator make it an exceptionally reliable fit for critical applications.
Elimination of Leak Paths:
The design of the K-TORK actuator has eliminated the use of o-rings along with any major leak path. Our double lip seal on the vane keeps any pressure from touching the shaft seal, increasing the life beyond any other type of actuator.
