Woodward Industrial Controls, the designer and manufacturer of energy control solutions for aircraft and industrial engines, turbines and power equipment, announces the introduction of the GVP-100, a fully integrated, electrically actuated control valve system. The GVP-100 is the first control valve specifically designed for low-power, remote gas flow control applications, such as remote monitoring in gas production fields. An all-electric, cage-guide control valve system, the GVP-100 simplifies and enhances natural gas production and distribution operations. The GVP-100 operates using a solar panel and a 12 VDC battery system, making it well suited for the natural gas market, where low power consumption is critical. The GVP-100 DSP-based digital driver delivers performance benefits such as self-diagnostics, remote monitoring and configuration. And its valve design is designed to minimise flow restriction for maximum capacity.
