Actuator Selection Information

Double Acting Cylinder PFO - Pneumatic Fall Open PFC - Pneumatic Fall Closed
All mechanically pinched pneumatic valves are available with 2 families of pneumatic actuator:
  1. A conventional air double acting cylinder. Air is applied alternating to the cylinder head and cylinder bottom to open and close the valve. This is inherently a Fail-in-last-position actuator.
  2. Onyx "Bomb Proof" zero maintenance actuator. This actuator is designed around a firestone airbag for the most robust construction and zero maintenance. It is available in two configurations:
A.PFO-Pneumatic Fail Open B.PFC-Pneumatic Fail Closed-Fails closed with a spring for the most dependable drop tight operation. All actuator sizing is performed by Onyx Engineers based on three factors:
  1. Valve Size
  2. Fail Mode
  3. Process Pressure
