Seeking help regarding issues with the Rotok actuator

2018-05-07View Original

Thread Content

The Rotok actuator stopped at 4%, the control room indicated abnormal valve behavior; a 250 ball valve was used, and the same electrical issues persisted on site. After manually opening the valve, operating it electrically from a remote location or locally restored normal operation. The valve was closed, and the same problem occurred when it was opened again the next day. Please ask an expert to help resolve this issue; thank you!

There seems to be a problem with the travel setting; try resetting the limits

Have you tried it? Can the valve be manually closed to at most 4%? The upper and lower limits need to be reset

It shouldn’t be a problem; as long as the valve is manually opened to a certain degree, it can be controlled remotely as well as electrically on-site, with no apparent issues.

Everything has been tried and everything is normal; there is a pressure of 34 kilograms in the pipeline. Torque was suspected as a possible issue, but the actuator did not show any torque value.

The alarm indicates a valve position issue; it’s likely that the travel limits haven’t been set properly, so it’s recommended to reset them! ! ! !

Most likely, the valve is a bit stuck; apply some liquid lubricant to the packing area

Full power off – try turning off the power and restarting?
