LINUO Control Valves with Leading Brand Rotary Actuators

Leading Brand Linear Actuator
on LINUO control valve.

A power plant in Kansas City inventories a well-know manufacturer's linear actuator.  By standardizing on this actuator, the power plant is able to reduce inventory costs and simplify company-wide inventory control. The downside, they thought, was dependance on the manufacturer's mating control valve.

Once introduced to the benefits of the LINUO control valve, the power plant staff was convinced it was a great alternative. The advantages were obvious - controllability, compactness and construction.  They really wanted to use LINUO, but the mounting issue had to be overcome.

The solution was quite simple. The local distributor, PEC, designed a simple bracket and coupling that tightly integrated valve and actuator. The linear actuator now bolted up neatly up to the LINUO valve and resulted in better control and much lower cost for the total package.

If your plant standardizes on another manufacturer’s actuator, don’t think that prohibits the use of a LINUO control valve. You’ll end up with better control at much lower costs, even taking in to consideration the mounting hardware.
