Self-contained Systems


Self-contained Actuators are used in remote locations power supplies are not available, typically small wellhead applications but can be equally useful in any remote location where there is a risk of explosion or environmental damage from spillage.

Each unit is pumped open using the integral manual override pump, then latches in position (with spring compressed) waiting for a process upset to be sensed. Once a signal is received the unit will spring to the fail safe (normally closed) position and will not open until manually pumped back to the set position.

Our range of Self-contained Actuators includes heavy duty scotch yoke (rotary) and heavy duty linear cylinder. We can provide a wide range of options as shown below
