Description
The 2-way electric actuated Durapipe VKD ball valve combines a high-performance PVCu isolation valve with a compact, fully weatherproof electric actuator, providing reliable automated control for industrial and commercial pipework systems. Each actuated valve assembly is built and tested to order, ensuring correct operation before dispatch.
The Durapipe 2-Way VKD Ball Valve allows full removal of the valve body from the pipeline for servicing or replacement. Manufactured from PVCu and fitted with EPDM seals, the valve offers excellent chemical resistance and a maximum working pressure of 16 bar. WRAS and DWI approval across the range makes it suitable for potable water and regulated installations.
The J+J J4C S20 Electric Actuator features a robust polyamide housing rated to IP67, providing full weather protection for both indoor and outdoor use. It includes an electronic torque limiter with automatic gearbox relaxation to protect the valve and actuator during operation. Auto voltage sensing allows operation across a wide 24–240V AC/DC supply range, while an LED status indicator provides clear visual confirmation of valve position. A selectable manual override enables local operation and isolates the actuator from remote signals when required.
This product is delivered fully assembled, made up from the following parts:
