Issues regarding the installation method of switch valve actuators
Thread Content
In design, it is sometimes the case that the actuator of a on/off valve cannot be installed vertically upward along the pipe, as there is not enough space at the upper part of the horizontal pipe； May I ask if it is possible to install the pneumatic actuator horizontally (double-acting cylinder or spring-return cylinder)? Is it also related to the type of valve?
Valves with small diameters can be installed at an angle, while when the actuator of valves with large diameters is installed horizontally, support is required
I agree with the suggestion from the second floor; without using brackets for large-diameter pipes, it may cause the pipes to deform, so it’s better to install brackets! (Brackets are necessary for pipes with a diameter of DN250 or more.) QQ: 928976489 (Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.)
