Plast-O-Matic Pneumatic Actuated Ball Valves

For 2 and 3 Way ball valve (MBV or TBV)

Actuator Features:

• Rugged thermoplastic construction ideal for corrosive atmospheres.
• Long cycle life - tested for millions of cycles.
• Lightweight assembly - less piping stress and lower shipping weight.
• Can be hydraulically actuated.
• Each valve and actuator is 100% individually inspected and tested prior to shipment.
• Designed for low maintenance
• Quick and easy attachment to valve
• stainless steel fasteners with Buna seals

Installation: The air x air  models require a 4-way air solenoid valve to control the air needed actuate them, and the air x spring require a 3-way. If desired, the solenoid can be supplied. It is recommended to use filtered and lubricated air to run the actuators. Beneath the mounting lugs on the valve body are two hex nuts which are tapped to facilitate supporting the piping assembly.

ASVA and ABVS Group - 1/2" through 1"

• Valox thermoplastic construction
• Easy attachments of spring kits for fail-safe closed or open

Options

• Spring kit - Provides fail-safe open or closed (factory or field mounted)
• Limit stop - provides a regulated opening amount of the valve (factory or field mounted)
• Limit switch - Provides an electrical relay of valve position (factory or field mounted)
• Valve show above is polypro body - actuator is failsafe closed with limit switch.

ABRA and ABRS Group - 1 1/4" through 2"

• GF polypropylene construction
• Rack and Pinion design
• Factory mounted and tested accessories

Options

• Air x air
• fail-safe closed
• fail-safe open
• Manual override
• limit switch
• limit stop

Series ABRA is a double-acting actuator for 1-1/4", 1-1/2" and 2" ball valves; it uses air pressure to open and air pressure to close. Manual override is standard. Requires 30 to 50 psi compressed air.
Series ABRS is a fail-safe actuator for 1-1/4", 1-1/2" and 2" ball valves; it uses a spring return for either normally closed or normally open operation. Converts easily from normally closed to normally open. Requires 60 to 80 psi compressed air.
Series ABMS is the same fail-safe actuator as ABRS, except that it has the added convenience of manual override. Requires 60 to 80 psi compressed air. Designed for 1-1/4", 1-1/2" and 2" ball valves
