Rotork Valvekits, the Rotork flow control group’s specialist valve mounting kit company, has been appointed as the UK stockist and distributor for the Centork range of valve positioners.
Centork pneumatic positioners are designed for the operation of quarter-turn or linear actuated valves with a proportional control signal. With its robust aluminium enclosure and stainless steel components, the positioners provide long-term reliability in harsh operating environments.
Standard features include simple, user-friendly zero and span settings and NAMUR interfaces for easy valve and accessory adaptation. Optional limit switches, position indicators, gauges for main and control signal pressure and electronic position transmitters can be fitted to meet the demands of most operating requirements. A ‘smart’ positioner incorporating microprocessor based electronics for valve monitoring and diagnostics is also available.
Excellent operating performance delivers repeatability of less than 0.3% of full range, hysteresis of less than 0.5% of full range and 99% full range linearity. All models are available with ATEX certification for operation in hazardous areas.
The Centork appointment will enable off-the-shelf delivery of many products to customers in the UK. This is the second distributorship agreement that Valvekits has announced in recent weeks. The company had also announced an exclusive stockist and distributor appointment for the Pneumatrol Namur range of solenoid valves earlier in April.
