FAQ

What type of valve is this actuator compatible with?

This actuator is designed primarily for the GEA VARIVENT series of single-seat valves that use a 3-inch OD tube standard connection. It may also be compatible with other valves that share the same mechanical interface.

Is this a spring-to-close or spring-to-open actuator?

The ‘DE’ designation in GEA’s nomenclature typically indicates a spring-closing (Normally Closed) configuration. However, it is essential to confirm the fail-safe position required for your specific application.

What are the required air connection fittings for this actuator?

This actuator requires a standard pneumatic air line connection. The specific port size, often a G1/8 or G1/4 inch threaded port, should be verified on the unit to ensure proper fitting selection before installation.
