Air Actuators
Designed for remote control, BuTech air operators
are virtually maintenance free - ideally suited for
service in limited access areas. Their compact
size and weight permits installation where space
or weight is at a premium. Also available with limit
switches and solenoid valves.
The single-acting actuators have a fail-safe
feature: The Air-to-Open actuator closes the
valve on loss of operating pressure, while the
Air-to-Close actuator opens the valve on loss of
operating pressure. These safety features are
necessary in critical systems.
