VAAS pneumatic actuators are designed for easy mounting on the VAAS range of knife gate valves and offer inter-changeabilty with the manual operator in most sizes and designs. These actuators employ a proven piston seal design that uses a PTFE seal backed with nitrile o-ring. Combined with the standard FRP cylinder tube, they offer very low friction and long seal life. The piston rod is stainless steel for good corrosion resistance and long trouble-free operation.
