Pressures to 150000 psi (10342 bar)
Diaphragm type air-operated valves are an efficient and economical means for “remote on-off” control of a wide range of process requirements. Diaphragm type actuators are designed to provide a dependable alternative to piston type actuators.

Autoclave Engineer’s diaphragm type air actuators feature:

  • Economical diaphragm design.
  • Air-to-open or -close with spring return.
  • Integral connection of valve and operator for height resticted applications.
  • Oversized weep holes for separation of process and air operator pressures.
  • Stem position indicator optional.
  • Medium actuator cycle life.
Air Operator Materials
Upper and lower housing, spring housing
  • Anodized aluminum.
Diaphragm plate
  • Cast ductile iron.
