Description:

Gemini Pneumatically Actuated Ball Valves offer a unique combination of three elements required for long trouble free life - a premium quality ball valve, a quality actuator designed to meet the torque requirements of the valve and a mounting bracket and connection which assures alignment and rigidity.

Gemini Pneumatic Actuator's simple rack and pinion design, made possible through unique manufacturing techniques, results in a bar stock actuator which is compact, efficient and trouble free.

A spring return option extends the capability of the design to meet the needs of those services requiring a spring action to either open or close the valve. Conversion from double acting to spring return simply requires the replacement of the end cap with a spring module.

All actuators are factory lubricated so that there is no need for lubricated air.

All threaded bolt holes in the aluminum components have self locking stainless steel inserts to assure strong, positive fastening.

Gemini Actuator mounting is the key element of our pneumatically actuated ball valves. A good valve and actuator, poorly mounted, results in an inferior actuated valve. The Gemini coupling eliminates this possibility with the 'missing link' i.e., the actuator shaft is precisely coupled directly to the valve stem, thereby eliminating misalignment and backlash often found with the commonly used torque and groove connecting linkage. The valve stem nut is fixed within the actuator shaft. These features, combined with a rigid mounting bracket, result in a pneumatically actuated ball valve which minimizes backlash, assures optimum stem seal life and prevents any possibility of stem nut back off.

Available with pilot valves and limit switches.
