A power tool for opening and closing valves

| By Chemical Engineering

The EasiDrive portable valve actuator effortlessly opens and closes valves in petroleum refineries, power plants, paper mills and chemical processing plants. Generating a torque of up to 2,000 Nm, this tool enables a single operator to efficiently drive multiple valves with a single tool, while reducing fatigue and risk of injury. EasiDrive II features a variable output torque, controlled by a choice of preset Filter Regulator Lubricator (FRL) packs. These FRL packs manage the output available to drive the valve, preventing human error that can lead to improper use of the system, while also ensuring that the proper torque is applied at all times. The EasiDrive system can be powered by air, electricity or battery. Stand S23 — Smith Flow Control Ltd., Beijing, China
