Heavy Duty Festo Carbon Steel Actuated Ball Valves

The BV-L8000FCFE and BV-L8200FCFE, both consisting of a three-piece full bore heavy-duty actuated ball design, present a more economically viable alternative to stainless steel valves, particularly suited for use in less corrosive environments. Our carbon steel ball valves are delivered pre-tested, ensuring immediate functionality upon installation. Furthermore, upon the completion of your order, you will receive a comprehensive two-page test report, providing intricate details on opening and closing times. Festo DFPD Pneumatic Actuators find application across a diverse range of scenarios, encompassing not only simple on-off control valves that respond to changes in pressure but also intricate systems where multiple actuators and sensors collaborate in close proximity to execute complex operations.

Key Features

Key features and benefits of BV-L8000FCFE & BV-L8200FCFE Actuated Ball Valves.
1

Key Features

The Festo DFPD series represents a groundbreaking design that distinguishes itself from conventional pneumatic actuators by delivering exceptional performance while maintaining low energy consumption and enduring a prolonged lifespan, even in the most challenging operating conditions. Significantly, the DFPD accomplishes this feat while remaining cost-effective.
2

Key Features

The tripartite design serves to mitigate potential damage arising from inadvertent disassembly during the removal and replacement of seals or other integral components within the valve body. Our pioneering engineering also affords users the convenience of replacing individual components without necessitating the replacement of the complete valve assembly.
3

Key Features

The Festo Pneumatic Actuator DFPD presents an economical alternative to conventional quarter-turn pneumatic actuators, featuring the possibility of smooth integration with position feedback technology. This incorporation empowers the user to vigilantly track the valve's precise positioning throughout its operation in real-time.

FAQs

This valve is appropriate for use with drinking water, provided it falls within the specified pressure and temperature constraints.

Yes. Electric actuators can be supplied with a battery backup or spring return module so the valve moves to a safe position on power loss, and pneumatic actuators can be supplied spring return. Tell us the fail position you need when you enquire.

Certainly, our actuated valves are provided with comprehensive operations and maintenance manuals. These manuals are furnished by both the valve and actuator manufacturers.

It depends on the version. Electric actuators normally include open and closed limit switches. For pneumatic valves, choose the switchbox option to add open and closed position feedback. If you are unsure, contact us and we will confirm.

Potentially. Contact us so we can discuss potential options.

Actuators are supplied in the manufacturer's standard finish. If your application needs a special coating, for example for a corrosive or offshore environment, contact us and we will check what the manufacturer can provide.

Yes. Send us the size, connection, pressure and media by email or call 0151 547 1221 and we will quote a suitable valve and actuator package.

Yes. We can ship on a plain label direct to your customer. Send us a copy of your delivery note and we will include it with the consignment.

Please contact our sales team to discuss account and payment options for your business.

On 3 piece valves, yes. This is done by combining end caps from two valves, so the valves are purchased in pairs; we then re-assemble and pressure test the valve before shipping.
