REMARKS FOR ACTUATOR SIZING:<br />

The torque values given are for water or other non-viscous lubricating liquids at ambient temperature<br />

For butterfl y valves with PTFE or other non elastomeric seat, multiply above values by 2<br />

Recommended safety factor to be applied: 25-35% for double acting pneumatic actuators<br />

30-50% for single acting pneumatic actuators and electric actuators<br />

There are several factors that can increase above given values and should be taken into account for actuators sizing:<br />

-For gases and dry medium (non lubricating), multiply above values by about 1,25-2 depending on application<br />

-For viscous liquids increase above values depending on the liquid properties<br />

-For unusual service conditions such as likelihood of seat swelling, or low and high temperature seat hardening,<br />

and additional safety factor should be considered.<br />

There are three torques to be considered when selecting the proper actuator for a butterfly valve:<br />

1) Seating Torque: The torque to displace a resilient seat and effect shutoff.<br />

2) Bearing Torque: The torque required to overcome friction forces on the valve shaft bearing surfaces during valve<br />

travel angle (about 30% of seating torque)<br />

3) Dynamic Torque: Due to fl uid forces which tend to close the valve when the valve is partially open. This torque is<br />

due to the velocity of the fl uid created by a differential pressure across the valve. Systems should be projected<br />

to avoid high velocities across the valve<br />

Above given values are inclusive of the 3 torques, the actuator selected must provide the calculated torque over its total<br />

opening and closing travel angle.<br />
