Quarter Turn Actuation
Quarter turn actuation is essential for the precise control of valves that require a 90-degree rotation to open or close. This type of actuation is commonly used for ball, butterfly, and plug valves, providing quick and efficient operation. At Patton Myhre, we offer a range of quarter turn actuation solutions, including electric motor operators, low pressure pneumatic actuators, gas over oil actuators, direct gas actuators, electro-hydraulic actuators, and emergency shutdown (ESD) systems. Our quarter turn actuation services are designed to enhance the performance and reliability of your midstream operations.
Electric Motor Operators
Electric motor operators provide reliable and efficient quarter turn actuation for a variety of valves. These actuators offer precise control and quick response times, making them ideal for applications requiring automated operation. Patton Myhre’s electric motor operators are engineered for durability and long-lasting performance, ensuring optimal efficiency and reliability in midstream applications.
Low Pressure Pneumatic
Low pressure pneumatic actuators are designed for applications where air pressure is used to control valve operation. These actuators provide smooth and reliable quarter turn actuation, making them suitable for various midstream processes. Patton Myhre’s low pressure pneumatic actuators are built to withstand harsh environments, ensuring consistent performance and minimal maintenance.
Gas Over Oil
Gas over oil actuators combine the benefits of pneumatic and hydraulic systems, providing robust and efficient quarter turn actuation. These actuators use gas pressure to move hydraulic fluid, delivering precise control and high torque output. Patton Myhre’s gas over oil actuators are ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature applications, offering reliable performance and durability.
Direct Gas
Direct gas actuators use natural gas from the pipeline to control valve operation, making them a cost-effective solution for remote locations. These actuators provide reliable and efficient quarter turn actuation, ensuring smooth and precise valve control. Patton Myhre’s direct gas actuators are designed for rugged midstream environments, offering long-lasting performance and ease of maintenance.
Electro-Hydraulic
Electro-hydraulic actuators combine electric and hydraulic technologies to provide powerful and precise quarter turn actuation. These actuators offer high torque output and accurate control, making them ideal for demanding midstream applications. Patton Myhre’s electro-hydraulic actuators are engineered for reliability and durability, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency.
ESD (Emergency Shutdown Systems)
Emergency shutdown (ESD) systems are critical for ensuring the safety and integrity of midstream operations. These systems provide rapid quarter turn actuation to close valves in emergency situations, preventing potential hazards. Patton Myhre’s ESD systems are designed for reliability and quick response, offering robust protection for your pipeline systems.
