What is a Limitorque?

® Since 1929, Limitorque actuators have been making flow control easier among a broad range of applications. These actuators are world-class devices used to consistently drive multi-turn and quarter-turn industrial valves and dampers, providing years of dependable service.

How does a Limitorque actuator work?

Limitorque actuators allow valves to be remotely operated and, by use of a motor, allow rapid valve operation that otherwise would not be feasible. This section deals with the control circuit and operation of the actuator in the motor mode.

How do MOV valves work?

An electric motor is mounted on the valve and geared to the valve stem so that when the motor operates the valve will open or close. For this MOV, motor operated with actuator control from local panel or, from control room is required.

What is MOV in pipeline?
