- Short Stroke / Low Volume Pneumatic Chamber for Fast Response & Low Air Consumption
- Powerful PneuMagnetic "Focused Field" Magnet Assembly
- No Process Fluid Seal / Actuator Slips on Like Original Coil / Permanently Sealed Bore
- Optional Differental Pressure Operation
How Does It Work?
Direct acting solenoid valves require wiring and conduit installations that meet national and local codes. In hazardous installations these requirements can be several times the cost of the valve. This cost and complexity is avoided when you convert your valves to operate with PneuMagnetic actuators. PneuMagnetic actuator is a direct drop-in replacement for the OEM coil on a direct acting solenoid valve. The patented PneuMagnetic actuator is a complete, self-contained pneumatic-magnetic device that provides the same powerful on/off magnetic field as the original coil. Valves converted to PneuMagnetic are operated by an inexpensive air pilot using a small diameter, flexible pneumatic line. NO electricity, NO field wiring, NO conduit, and NO intrinsically safe IS barriers required.
HOW TO CONVERT YOUR VALVE
To use the PneuMagnetic product simply remove your OEM coil, slip the PneuMagnetic actuator on to your valve and run pneumatic tubing from the PenuMagnetic actuator to a small pilot valve installed with control system.
Features and Benefits
- Safe, non-electric
- Uses standard hermetically sealed valves
- Does not require valves with a system fluid seal
- Lowest installed cost
- Requires less space than explosion proof or intrinsically safe barrier systems
- Easier to maintain, does not require special skills
- Less clutter in and around the equipment and in the plant
- Extremely high service life
- No coil hum or heating
- No conduit means increased flexibility for future plant layout modifications
- Operating pressures from 20-125 psi
- Retrofit existing electrical systems using existing valves without breaking into the valve fluid circuit
