FAQ

Question?

What is the function of the T.VIS A-15 control top?

The T.VIS A-15 is a control and feedback unit. It provides electrical position feedback (open/closed) to the control system (PLC) and houses the solenoid valve that controls the air supply to the pneumatic actuator.

Is the HNBR seal material suitable for high-temperature applications?

HNBR (Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) offers excellent resistance to heat, oils, and chemicals. It typically has a working temperature range up to about 150 deg C (302 deg F), making it suitable for many hot processing and Clean-In-Place (CIP) applications.

Can this valve be operated manually in case of power or air failure?

This specific pneumatic actuator is a single-acting, spring-return model. In case of air pressure loss, an internal spring automatically returns the valve to its default position (typically closed), providing a fail-safe function. It does not have a manual override handle.
