Actuators improve reliability
06 March 2023
THIRTY THREE 33 Rotork ROMpak electric actuators have been installed at a Şişecam glass factory in Turkey, allowing for efficient combustion and reduction of emissions.
The ROMpak units replaced existing underperforming actuators to operate butterfly valves, controlling the flow of hot air at the heart of the glass manufacturing process.
ROMpak actuators offer quiet and reliable operation for smaller ball and butterfly valves. They have a continuous position indicator that is always available and can work in an ambient temperature of up to +70° C (158° F). Importantly in a glass application, they are watertight and dustproof to IP68 10m for 100 hours.
