The stainless steel Type 2053 actuator from Bürkert includes an optionally integrated positioner for ball and butterfly valves.
The actuator can be retrofitted to virtually any brand of valve. It uses the ISO 5211-compliant standard interface for mounting and a conversion kit can be used to enable integration with proprietary mounting systems.
Control head integration enables decentralised automation with communication across a wide range of protocols. The compact control package also creates a small footprint.
Hygiene is maximised through the crevice-free, washable design with no external tubing between the actuator and control head. The actuator’s air refresh system also ensures dry air is used internally, preventing corrosion of the spring and maximising actuator lifetime, says the company.
The launch opens the hygienic actuator market for Bürkert in food and beverage, pharmaceutical and water treatment applications.
