Tips: What type of actuator is compatible with this butterfly valve?

The compatibility of an actuator with a butterfly valve depends on the design and specifications of both the valve and the actuator. Here are details on the types of actuators commonly used with butterfly valves:

• Manual Actuators: Butterfly valves can be operated manually using a hand lever or gear operator. A hand lever is a simple and cost-effective option, while a gear operator provides mechanical advantage, making it easier to turn the valve.
• Electric Actuators: Electric actuators are widely used for automation. They can be controlled remotely, allowing for precise positioning of the valve. This type of actuator is suitable for applications where frequent or remote operation is required.
• Pneumatic Actuators: Pneumatic actuators use compressed air to operate the valve. They are known for their quick response and are often used in industrial settings. Pneumatic actuators are suitable for applications where a compressed air supply is available.
• Hydraulic Actuators: Hydraulic actuators use hydraulic fluid to move the valve. These actuators provide high force and are often used in heavy-duty applications. Hydraulic systems are suitable for situations where a hydraulic power source is available.
• Multiturn and Quarter-Turn Actuators: Butterfly valves typically require quarter-turn actuators, as they open or close with a 90-degree rotation. Some valves may use multiturn actuators if they require more than a 90-degree rotation.
• Explosion-Proof Actuators: Given that the butterfly valve in question is described as "Explosion Proof," it may be paired with an explosion-proof actuator in hazardous environments. These actuators are designed to prevent the ignition of explosive gases or vapors.
• Actuator Sizing: It's crucial to match the actuator size and torque output with the requirements of the butterfly valve. The actuator should have sufficient power to overcome the resistance of the valve during operation.
• Compatibility with Valve Design: The valve and actuator should be compatible in terms of mounting and connection interfaces. Manufacturers often provide guidelines on which actuators are suitable for their specific butterfly valve models.

When selecting an actuator for a butterfly valve, it's essential to consider the application requirements, environmental conditions, and the specific features of both the valve and the actuator. Refer to the valve manufacturer's documentation and consult with them or a qualified engineer to ensure the proper selection and compatibility of the actuator with the 2-inch Stainless Steel Butterfly Valve with Explosion Proof features.
