The Limitorque LHS and LHH Hydraulic Scotch Yoke actuator series are designed to meet or exceed the most current and stringent safety and reliability standards for application in the oil and gas industry. LHS and LHH are ideal where hydraulic motive power is preferred for the operation of quarter-turn valves and for applications requiring a robust heavy duty design, long service life, high-torque and high-speed operation.
Efficient design based on computational modelling and extensive experimental validation provides high performance with reduced size, weight, and consumption
Symmetrical and canted scotch yoke types perfectly fit individual valve torque requirements
Quick stroking time: less than 0.5 seconds, subject to technical evaluation
Rugged heavy-duty fabricated carbon steel build epoxy painted and Electroless Nickel Plated (ENP) cylinders provide maximum protection against corrosion
Dust/water proofing to IP66/IP66M and IP67/IP67M according to EN 60529
25-year design life and maintenance intervals up to six years, (depending on service conditions, proper installation, operation and maintenance) exceed industry expectations
Modular construction allows easy on-site maintenance without special tools and without removal from the valve
Symmetric and canted scotch yoke mechanisms as standard. Customized yoke profiles available as option
Hydraulic Handpump for Manual Operation available on request
PED 2014/68/EU and & ASME BPVC VIII div. 1 versions available
Standard or customer specified painting on request
Wide range of feature and function customizations, including high-speed and high-cycle versions, are available
