New performance requirements are incorporated into project specifications almost every day and emphasize personnel safety and equipment uptime. To more aggressively meet these industry demands, the Flowserve Limitorque Fluid Power family of heavy-duty actuators recently expanded to include the Limitorque Hydraulic Scotch yoke (LHS) heavy-duty actuator. The launch of the LHS actuator marks another product milestone, as Flowserve continues to expand its fluid- and electric-powered actuator portfolio produced under the Limitorque brand. Specifically designed to meet or exceed the latest and most rigorous industry requirements, the LHS is one of the most technically advanced and market-compliant actuators available in the world. With a robust, modular Scotch yoke design, the LHS is available in both spring-return and double-acting configurations. It is suitable for actuating ball, butterfly and plug valves or any other quarter-turn application, and in on/off or modulating applications for both general service, protective service and safety systems like ESD or HIPPS. The LHS uses the same design philosophy introduced with the Limitorque Pneumatic Scotch yoke (LPS) actuator in January 2014, ensuring that customers benefit from the actuator’s high-torque, ultra-fast response and high reliability. In fact, a Flowserve customer in Latin America already has the reliable LHS actuator and many of its accessories installed in service. The LHS actuator is often lighter and more compact than the pneumatic LPS and offers a choice for those preferring hydraulic motive power. It is available in a selection of standard as well as in different and special material executions, upon request. For some, such as those working in an offshore environment, it may be the only practical option in terms of fluid-power availability and performance requirements. To complete the actuation package, the LHS actuator is available with accessories such as manual overrides and control panels, like hydraulic power units, accumulator racks, self-contained units and other electro-hydraulic solutions. Limitorque also provides engineering design services for mounting hardware, ensuring that your actuation solution is complete and ready to handle the toughest challenges.
