Product overviewGO gas-over-oil actuators convert pipeline gas into pressurised hydraulic oil to provide reliable hydraulic drive for quarter-turn and linear actuation. The gas does not enter the hydraulic cylinder: it pressurises oil in dedicated tanks which then powers scotch yoke, rack & pinion or linear double-acting actuators.
Features- Available in scotch yoke, rack & pinion and linear double-acting configurations
- Wide range of high-pressure control options for precise operation
- Controls designed to operate at full pipeline pressure to avoid regulator failure points
- Modular integrated manifold reduces external fittings and leakage risk
- Selectable low- or high-pressure control logic
- Local manual control via lever-operated poppet valves on the multifunction manifold
- PED or ASME approved gas/oil and power-gas storage tanks
- Bi-directional speed control as standard using adjustable hydraulic flow valves
- Manual hand pump for operation during pneumatic supply loss
- Stainless-steel pressure gauge with psi/bar scale for gas supply monitoring
- Stroke time adjusted through two hydraulic flow-control valves for smooth, repeatable actuation
- Ingress protection certified to IP 66M/67M
- Compliant with PED 2014/68/EU
- Hazardous-area approvals: ATEX/IECEx II 2 G Ex e,d,ia IIB T4 IP65 minimum; UL/CSA Class I Division 1 Group C,D NEMA 3 minimum; Class II Division 1 Groups E,F,G NEMA 3 minimum
ApplicationsDesigned for installations where a local high-pressure pipeline gas source is available and where robust, field-proven hydraulic actuation is required for valves and dampers in industrial process, oil & gas and utility environments.
