| Scotch Yoke actuators
GP/GH Range Overview
- GP (pneumatic) and GH (hydraulic)
Range scotch yoke actuators are designed to provide a rotary,
quarter-turn movement for either on/off or modulating duty.
The rugged yet compact design is available with two different
yoke designs. The classic symmetrical yoke delivers peak
torque at both ends of stroke. Alternatively, they can be
supplied with canted torque arms designed to deliver peak
torque at only one end of stroke. Use of canted arms can
often reduce actuator size, weight and cost for valves with
appropriate torque demand characteristics.
- GP and GH Range actuators share
a modular construction. The centre body is available in
ten sizes producing output torque up to 600,000 Nm (5.3
million inch pounds). A pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder
can be attached to either or both sides. A spring canister
can also be fitted to either side.
CP Range Overview
- CP Range actuators are of a versatile,
modular, scotch yoke design available in four body sizes,
in both double acting and spring return configurations with
output torque up to 4,500 Nm (39,650 inch pounds). The compact
and efficient design yields surprisingly high torques even
at low pressures. The design concepts found in Rotork’s
large, heavy-duty actuators have been applied to the CP
Range, which brings heavy-duty actuator qualities to small,
quarter turn actuators.
- A single piston rod supported on
both sides of the yoke by PTFE impregnated bronze bushings
eliminates the misalignment, friction and wear inherent
in some other small actuator designs. The actuator body
is of rugged cast iron. Cylinders are manufactured
from carbon steel, Nit-ox® treated for corrosion
resistance and low piston seal friction.
P/H Range Overview
- P (pneumatic) and H (hydraulic)
Range scotch yoke actuators are designed to provide a rotary,
quarter-turn movement for either on/off or modulating duty.
P Range actuators have operating pressures up to17 bar (250
psi). H Range actuators have operating pressures up to 210
bar (3,000 psi).
- P and H Range actuators share a
modular construction. The ductile iron centre body is available
in two sizes producing output torque up to 5,400 Nm (48,000
inch pounds). A pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder can be attached
to either or both sides. A spring canister can also be fitted
to either side.
