Sizing<br />
1. Determine the maximum torque of the valve to be actuated<br />
2. Add a reasonable safety factor to the valve torque to obtain the required actuator<br />
torque (safety factor = 20% to 50% based on working conditions)<br />
3. Refer to Double Acting torque chart below. Read down the Air Supply Pressure<br />
column to the first torque that exceeds the determined required torque, then left<br />
to find appropriate actuator size<br />
Example:<br />
Valve breakaway torque is 100 in.lbs. x 20% safety factor = 120 in.lbs.<br />
Available air supply is 70 psi. Reading down the 70 psi column, the<br />
first torque exceeding the requirement is 156 in.lbs. Selected actuator<br />
is DA52<br />
