Air Actuated Stainless 3-Piece Ball Valve- Scotch Yoke

Valworx air actuated3-piece stainless steel ball valves with swing out design for easy maintenance typically used for on-off control of air, water, oil, and other media compatible with the materials of construction. Spring return air actuators use air pressure to open the valve and springs (failsafe) to close the valve. Double acting air actuators use air pressure to open the valve and air pressure to close the valve. Advantages of air actuated ball valves over other type valves may include: higher flow rates, higher pressures, higher temperatures, wider media compatibility, straight through flow path, reduced water hammer, and use in hazardous environments.
