The electro-hydraulic EHS for swivel movements, in conjunction with the Pleiger STK actuators, was developed specially for the remote actuation of valves such as shut-off and butterfly valves, ball and tap valves and throttle valves and can be integrated into process control systems with minimal installation effort.
The actuators of the EHS-SG series are based on the STK series, but are fitted with an additional spring assembly and expanded to a single-acting actuator. This combination always reliably moves the valve to the predefined fail-safe position.
The EHS actuators, equipped with an electrically driven compact unit and integrated position feedback, thus combine the advantages of electrical and hydraulic systems.
