Direct Gas Actuators are used on gas transmission pipelines where the hydro-carbons are “sweet” (do not contain Hydrogen Sulphide). Due to the lack of other power sources, the pipeline pressure is used to power the actuator. If Hydrogen Sulphide were to be present in the gas stream, it would attack the metal structure and cause premature failure.
For application where Hydrogen sulphide is present, see Gas over Oil Actuators page
Our range of Direct Gas Actuators includes heavy duty scotch yoke (rotary) and heavy duty linear cylinder. We can provide a wide range of options as shown below.
