ACTUATOR SELECTION GUIDE FOR FLOW-TEK BALL VALVES

Proper actuator selection is needed to ensure consistent operation of the automated valve. Selecting the proper actuator begins with
establishing valve operating torque. Valve operating torque is determined by seating material, operation frequency, media type and
line pressure. This guide provides a means of determining the valve operating torque based on these variables.
The following steps are used to select the proper actuator:
1. After selecting the desired seating material, refer to the charts on the following pages to determine the basic torque requirement for the valve.
2. Using the design or maximum operating line pressure and the valve size chose the Valve Torque Requirement from the
tables. If line pressure is not listed the next highest pressure nearest the actual pressure should be selected.
3. Determine the Application Factor from the chart below. Select the largest factor if the service appliction matches more than
one of the listed factors.
4. Determine the Frequency of Operation Factor from the chart below.
5. Add the Application Factor and the Frequency of Operation Factor to determine the Total Torque Factor.
6. Multiply the torque from the tables per item 2 by the Total Torque Factor per item 5 to determine the Total Valve Torque
Requirement. This will be the torque needed to size the actuator.
7. From the actuator output torque tables select an actuator with an output torque greater than the Valve Torque Requirement.
Pneumatic Actuators
Electric Actuators
Double Acting (Air-to-Air): Determine the air supply pressure available to the actuator and select the Actuator Size that
exceeds the Valve Torque Requirement.
Single Acting (Spring Return for fail safe operation, either Fail-Open or Fail-Close): Determine the air supply available to
the actuator and select the Actuator Size that exceeds the Valve Torque Requirement for the END of stroke for BOTH the
Air Stroke and the Spring Stroke. The actuator selection is optimized when the end of stroke torques are nearly equal.
Select the Actuator Size that exceeds the Valve Torque Requirement.
8. From the EZ Ordering Code Matrix select the mounting kit required to connect the valve and actuator. EZ Ordering Codes
are listed by valve series.
Note: Safety factors are not built into the Valve Torque Requirements.
Examples of how to size an actuator can be found on page 6 of this Technical Bulletin.

Total Torque Factor = Application Factor + Frequency of Operation Factor

Total Valve Torque Requirement = Valve Torque Requirement x Total Torque Factor
If a Media Containment Unit is added between the valve and the actuator additional torque must be added to the valve operating torque as follows:
MCU 1 .....20 lb-ins

MCU 3T ...50 lb-ins

Above torque values are based on PTFE or TFM 1600 seats in clear, non-viscous fluid.
For RPTFE Seats multiply listed torque by 1.15.
For Tek-Fil Seats multiply listed torque by 1.00.
For 50/50 Seats multiply listed torque by 1.50.
For UHMWPE Seats multiply listed torque by 1.62.
When using the torque table for sizing actuators use the Application Factors listed on page 1.
TYPICAL VALVE TORQUE CURVE
Break Torque
Ending Torque
Run Torque
Start
End
Note: Ball valve torque is high at the beginning of each stroke, called Break Torque.
This high initial torque is the result of the ball and seats taking a set after sitting in a
static position for a period of time. As the ball is turned the torque decreases. This is
known as the Run Torque. The torque will again increase at the end of the stroke as
the ball and seats are returned to full contact. This torque is known as Ending Torque
and it will be approximately 80% of the Break Torque. This typical curve occurs in
both directions when operating a ball valve open to closed or closed to open.

Electric Actuators have

a constant output torque
throughout travel from
start to end, clock-wise or
counter-clock-wise rotation.
EXAMPLES OF HOW TO SIZE AN ACTUATOR

Select Flow-Tek Double Acting (Air-to-Air) pneumatic actuator, Single Acting (Spring Return) pneumatic actuator and a
Flow-Tek Electric Actuator for the following application:
Valve: 2 F15, Full Port Line Pressure: 200 psi Line Media: Saturated Steam Seat Material: Tek-Fil
Actuator Air Supply Pressure: 80 psig Frequency of operation: 4 times per day.
Step 1 Determine The Torque Requirement
Refer to the Valve Torque Requirements chart for a Tek-Fil seat. A 2 valve with line pressure of 200 psi has a torque
requirement of 380 lb.-ins. The application is for Saturated Steam so use an Application Factor of 1.3. The frequency
of operation is 4 times per day so use a factor of 0.0. The total torque factor is 1.3 (1.3 + 0.0 = 1.3).
Valve Torque Requirement: 380 x 1.3 = 494 lb.-ins.
Step 2 Select the Correct Actuator Size
Double Acting Pneumatic Actuator, with Air Supply pressure of 80 psig

From the Double Acting Pneumatic Operated Output chart select the size actuator that exceeds 494 lb.-ins. with an
80 psig air supply. The size 83 actuator has a torque output of 721 lb.-ins. The next size smaller actuator (size 63)
only has a torque output of 297.
Correct Actuator: Size 83
Spring Return Pneumatic Actuator, with Air Supply pressure of 80 psig - Same valve as above.
From the Spring Return Pneumatic Operated Output chart select the size actuator that exceeds 494 lb.-ins. with an 80
psig air supply. FOR SPRING RETURN THE ENDING OF THE AIR STROKE AND THE SPRING STROKE MUST EXCEED
THE VALVE TORQUE REQUIREMENT OF 494 LB.-INS. The first actuator to accomplish this is the size 119 with 3 springs
(air end 1287, spring stroke 549). The next size actuator is a 119 with 4 springs (air end 993, spring end 732). The
end stroke of torque on a 119-4 is more balanced and it allows for changes in service conditions.
Correct Actuator: Size 119-4
Electric Actuator
The Application Factors for Series 70 ON/OFF is 1.2. Valve Torque Requirement: 494 x 1.2 = 592.8 lb.-ins.
From the Electric Actuator Torque Output charts select the size actuator that exceeds 592.8 lb.-ins.
Correct Actuator: Size S73-6 (torque output of 600 lb.-ins.)

or
Correct Actuator: Size S70-008 (torque output of 800 lb.-ins.)
Step 3 Select the Mounting Kit to Connect the Valve and Actuator
Refer to the EZ Ordering Code Matrix for 2 F15, Full Port valve.

FLUSH MOUNTING KITS
Flow-Teks Flush Mounting Kits are available on valves sizes 1/4 to 2-1/2 and they provide a very attractive method of
connecting Flow-Tek valves and actuators. At 1.30 in height, these kits offer a low profile connection between the actuator and valve and reduce the overall space requirements of the assembly. The kits come complete with an investment cast
(CF8M) Flush Mount Housing, 304 Stainless Steel coupler and Stainless Steel hardware. In addition to the reduced space
requirements, these kits offer some additional advantages over standard mounting kits. They will protect the packing area of
the valve during caustic washdowns and the design offers full access to the mounting bolts for fast and easy actuator mounting. These kits can be mounted in any direction and feature a weep hole to eliminate the possibility of an internal buildup
of media. The kits also allow the user to field mount different size actuators to a single valve. All couplers are machined to
close tolerances. Flow-Tek is offering these low profile kits in addition to our standard mounting kits.
