Pneumatic Cylinder
Linear pneumatic cylinder actuation used on our knife gate valve range and general-purpose duty.
Pneumatic Cylinder
Our pneumatic cylinder provides linear thrust for knife gate valve automation — as fitted on our pneumatic-operated knife gate valve range — as well as general-purpose industrial motion applications, built for reliable, repeatable cycling.
Available in single and double acting configurations with a range of bore and stroke combinations, the cylinder is matched with a manual gearbox override option and can be paired with our limit switch box and E/P positioner for full position feedback and proportional control.
Engineered For Reliable Performance
- Single acting and double acting configurations
- Directly couples to knife gate valve stem for automation
- Compatible with gearbox override for manual operation
- Pairs with limit switch box for open/close feedback
- Pairs with E/P positioner for proportional control
- Robust construction for continuous industrial cycling
