Emergency Shutoff Valve Automation with Cowan’s E2H-ESD Actuator
By: Margo Ellis, Former Editor, Valve Magazine
“We designed this product around the modular concept to allow the customer to have the flexibility to remove the hydraulics and controls in the field with very minimal work since an important reason for failure of electric and electrohydraulic actuators is vibration in the pipe transferred to the process valve,” says Maria Aguirre, director of Business Development.
