The service covers the JHP high performance double offset butterfly valve, JMC concentric seat butterfly valve, JMT resilient seated butterfly valve with PTFE liner, Discovanne (Gachot) high performance double offset butterfly valve, and the Monovar® multi-jet control valve. If you have a valve not listed here, contact us and we'll advise on suitability.

No. You supply the existing valve body — we supply the actuator package and carry out the fitment. The only exception is if an inspection on receipt reveals that the valve requires reconditioning before it is safe to automate, in which case we'll contact you before proceeding.

The valve should be cleaned, fully depressurised, and free from process medium. We carry out a condition inspection on receipt and will advise if any issues are found before proceeding with the actuator build.

Yes. High-temperature electric actuators and extended bonnets are available for Discovanne assemblies operating up to 450°C or 550°C (THT version). The actuator specification for elevated temperature assemblies is subject to confirmation of operating temperature, seat type, and disc material — please include these details in your enquiry.

Yes. The JHP, JMC, JMT, and Discovanne ranges all feature an integrated ISO 5211 baseplate, which allows direct mounting of compatible quarter-turn electric or pneumatic actuators without additional bracket fabrication in the majority of sizes. We confirm the drive bushing and coupling requirements at the point of technical review.

Yes. Linear electric actuators providing modulating control are available for the Monovar® range. As a flow regulating and control valve with anti-cavitation characteristics, the Monovar® is typically specified with a modulating actuator and a 4–20 mA or 0–10 V input signal. Please confirm the valve size, operating pressure differential, required control signal, and whether flow measurement output is required when enquiring.

Yes. Where pneumatic actuation is preferred but modulating control is required — for example on the JHP or Discovanne in a flow control application — a pneumatic positioner can be included as part of the assembly. The positioner accepts a 4–20 mA input signal and controls the actuator to a proportional position. Please confirm the required control signal, air supply pressure, and whether a volume booster or solenoid valve is also required when enquiring.

Typical turnaround from receipt to return despatch is 5–10 working days for standard electric actuation on butterfly valve types. ATEX-specified assemblies, high-temperature Discovanne builds, or Monovar® modulating assemblies may require longer depending on actuator availability. A confirmed lead time is given at the point of order.

Yes — batch submissions are welcome. Please include the valve series, size, seat type, and actuation requirements for each valve in your enquiry so we can confirm a combined schedule and, where applicable, batch pricing.

The actuator package and fitment work are covered by standard warranty terms. Full details are provided with your quotation and assembly documentation.

Yes. The Monovar® holds ACS certification for drinking water service as standard, with NSF 61 available on request. Body and plate materials include ductile iron with epoxy coating and stainless steel options. Where the valve is to be installed in a potable water system, please confirm the applicable approval standard required for your project at the point of enquiry so we can ensure the correct material and coating combination is specified.
