A Universal Problem
Broken actuators in your HVAC system used to mean just one thing —
headaches. Replacing the valve along with the actuator wasn’t always
practical due to the additional labor expenses and downtime. That
left you with one choice: finding a custom replacement or paying
a premium price for the same technology that had already failed
you once.
Siemens Building Technologies is changing the rules by
offering you something you haven’t had before —
a choice.
Now a broken actuator can actually be an opportunity to put the quality and value of a Siemens
solution in your system. Imagine being able to install a state-of-the-art Flowrite
TM
599 Series
actuator regardless of the manufacturer’s name on your valve.
Whether your system is electronic or pneumatic, Siemens Building Technologies has the right
actuator for your application. Now there’s a way to retrofit actuators on your valves quickly
and easily.
The Universal Valve Retrofit Kit —
Only from Siemens Building Technologies.
A Fitting Solution
The Universal Valve Retrofit Kit is engineered
to provide a solid, reliable connection
between a Flowrite 599 Series actuator and
your valve. The valve kit adapts both the
bonnet connection on the valve and the
stem connection on the actuator without
using complicated linkage arrangements
that require painstaking adjustment
during installation.
To accommodate different stroke lengths,
the modulating valve actuators in the
SQX, SKB, SKC, and SKD series employ
an automatic calibration feature that will
set the actuator’s stroke to match that
of the valve body (as long as the stroke
length is equal to or less than the range
of the actuator).
These kits allow the use of Siemens Flowrite
599 Series actuators with a wide array of
third-party valves:
Honeywell
Johnson Controls
Invensys (Siebe, Barber-Colman,
Robertshaw)
Installation is as easy as selecting the
correct bonnet and stem adapters, bolting
the assembly in place, and letting the
actuator calibrate itself.
