Frequently Asked Questions

Valpes actuators deliver accurate, electronically controlled movement with stable torque output, giving the carbon steel valve body the precision it needs for reliable isolation and modulation in industrial service.

The lugged pattern offers rigid, secure flange connection points while allowing one side of the line to be removed during maintenance. Carbon steel adds the mechanical strength needed for higher pressures and tougher media.

Yes. Many Valpes models feature 4–20 mA or 0–10 V control options, enabling smooth modulating service where accurate flow control is required.

Valpes designs their actuators with durable gearing and thermal protection, making them well-suited to regular cycling and longer operating periods without performance drop-off.

Electric actuation offers quieter operation, precise positioning, and easier integration into control systems. Pneumatic options are faster, but electric Valpes units excel when fine control and electrical feedback are priorities.

Yes. Most Valpes actuators come with IP65, IP67, or even IP68 ratings, providing strong protection against dust, moisture, and outdoor service conditions.

The carbon steel body performs well at elevated temperatures, and with suitable seat materials the assembly maintains sealing integrity across a broad temperature range.

Certain Valpes models are available with failsafe spring-return or battery failsafe features that automatically drive the valve to a predetermined safe position during power loss.

Yes. Valpes actuators commonly offer built-in position indication, and many models support electronic feedback signals for remote monitoring via PLC or BMS systems.

The combination of a robust carbon steel valve body, secure lugged mounting, and Valpes’ quality electric actuation provides a stable, dependable solution for demanding pipelines with variable process conditions.

Absolutely. With a Valpes modulating actuator fitted, the valve can provide controlled intermediate positioning, making it suitable for balancing, flow control, or variable-flow process lines.

You’ll commonly find them in chemical processing, water treatment, HVAC distribution, food manufacturing plants, energy systems, and general industrial environments that require accurate electric control and a strong mechanical valve body.
