Linear Valve Actuator

A linear valve actuator is a device used to control the flow of liquids or gases in a system. It is typically used in industrial applications such as water and wastewater treatment, oil and gas production, and chemical processing. Linear valve actuators are designed to provide precise control over the flow of a liquid or gas, allowing for precise adjustments to be made to the system. The actuator works by using a motor to move a piston or other device that is connected to the valve stem. This movement opens or closes the valve, allowing for the desired flow rate to be achieved. Linear valve actuators are typically used in systems where precise control over the flow rate is required, such as in medical or laboratory applications. They are also used in industrial applications where the flow rate needs to be adjusted quickly and accurately.
