Haskel offers specialized BuTech Air Actuators designed for high-pressure hydrogen applications, providing remote control and maintenance-free operation for valves in limited-access areas. These actuators are often paired with hydrogen-rated needle valves and are capable of handling pressures up to 20,000 PSI (1,380 bar).
Key Features of BuTech Air Actuators
- Fail-Safe Operation: Single-acting models include built-in safety features where the "Air-to-Open" actuator closes the valve upon loss of operating pressure, and the "Air-to-Close" model opens the valve.
- Compact & Lightweight: Their design allows for installation in tight spaces where weight is a concern.
- Hydrogen Compatibility: They are engineered with specific materials to resist hydrogen embrittlement, ensuring long-term reliability in critical systems.
- Remote Control: Ideal for hazardous or hard-to-reach environments where manual valve operation is not feasible.
