Compact LEDEEN HS and CP actuators—some of the smallest actuators available on the market—save valuable space on a production platform or FPSO vessel when installing automated valve packages within the piping system.
Ideal Solutions for Space-Constrained Installations
Unlike conventional scotch yoke actuators, compact LEDEEN actuator profiles are concentric with the valve stem, reducing the required installation space and enabling alternative piping options.
Application-Specific Torque Mechanism
LEDEEN actuators have two different torque mechanisms available, enabling the most appropriate mechanism to be utilized for maximum efficiency.
- High-pressure hydraulic applications: A small helical spline mechanism is used with a small piston diameter to generate high torque outputs.
- Low-pressure pneumatic applications: The larger helical slot mechanism is combined with a larger piston diameter to generate an equivalent torque output.
Independently Adjustable Travel Stops
For precise valve positioning, the actuators feature a patent-pending integrated adjustable travel stop subassembly.
Valves can be accurately set to the closed position to ensure positive shut-off and set fully open to optimized process flow.
