K-TORK offers a de-clutch gearbox manual override that mounts between the actuator and the valve to provide for manual valve operation in the event of air failure or for emergency operation. Under normal automatic operation, the gear is disengaged and the actuator turns freely to operate the valve.

The manual override will remain attached to the valve to hold the valve steady or to open / close the valve with the K-TORK actuator removed for maintenance or repair.

• No additional mounting parts required. Can be easily added to any actuator in the field
• Will

The Ranger CG Corrosion-Guard finish greatly extends the life of the actuator in highly-corrosive environments. The housing and vane are treated both inside and out while the Ranger CG system treats all internal threads and cavities.

The Ranger CG actuators provide an armoured layer of protection against a wide range of acids, caustics, alkalis, solvents and salt-laden environments. The cast aluminium body and alloy steel vane are treated with a thermosetting tripolymer resin coating system formulated for mechanical components requiring corrosion-resistance and surface

Rotork Type K rotary pneumatic damper drives are offered in two basic configurations; the PM Series (Pedestal Mount) and the DM Series (Direct Mount). Both Series provide accurate quarter-turn control to dampers on combustion air and flue gas applications. They offer modulating control, isolation open / close control and bus network control to fit your operating needs.

See brochure for a complete listing of boiler, furnace and process heater applications, torques and speeds and control options.

The CT Series linear damper drive was designed specifically for fuel air and auxiliary air applications on CE / Alstom / T-fired / Corner-fired boilers. The CT Series provides excellent and efficient control of the Secondary Air within the windbox and will withstand the extreme heat and vibration common in this application. Effective windbox control will reduce NOx and minimise carbon monoxide (CO) associated with poor fuel-air mixing and will maintain boiler thermal performance.

• Matching “pin-to-pin” replacement for legacy 2.5”

The JR Series was designed specifically for wall-fired boilers with burners using a combination of fuel and combustion air. The JR Series controls the secondary air that is introduced at the burner and the air/fuel ratio is regulated by a sliding-sleeve damper to balance the air flow distribution. The JR Series offers ‘split architecture’ with the Power cylinder and the DPC-777 positioner mounted separately to remove sensitive electronics from the high-temperature area around the boiler and burner.

CP range pneumatic actuators are a versatile, modular, scotch yoke design available in both double-acting and spring-return configurations. The compact and efficient design yields high torques even at low pressures. The design concepts found in Rotork's large, heavy-duty actuators has been applied to the CP range, which brings heavy-duty actuator qualities to small, quarter-turn actuators.

• The actuator body is of rugged, ductile cast iron available in four body sizes. Cylinders are manufactured from carbon steel, electroless nickel-plated.

The 4P/4H multi-turn actuators apply the reliable Planetary Torque Controls System (PTCS), fulfilling requirements in certain industries for actuators with a hydraulic or pneumatic supply in multi-turn applications with position and applied torque control.

• 4P pneumatic actuator: reversible vane motor including a wide range of supply pressures 2 to 7 bar
• 4H hydraulic actuator: reversible vane motor including a wide range of supply pressures 30 to 120 bar

GP (pneumatic) and GH (hydraulic) range scotch yoke actuators are designed to provide a rotary, quarter-turn movement for either on/off or modulating duty. The rugged yet compact design is available with two different yoke designs. The classic symmetric yoke delivers peak torque at both ends of stroke. Alternatively, they can be supplied with canted torque arms designed to deliver peak torque at only one end of stroke. Use of canted arms can often reduce actuator size, weight and cost for valves with appropriate torque demand characteristics.

• Pneumatic and hydraulic

Rotork linear actuators offer the advantages of compact size, high performance and a simple but highly reliable design. They are ideal for operating on/off and control functions of both globe and wedge gate valves. Both spring-return and double-actingconfigurations are available with either pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders.
