Frequently Asked Questions – Pneumatic Actuators
A pneumatic rotary actuator converts compressed air pressure into a 90° rotary motion to operate a quarter-turn valve – typically a butterfly valve, ball valve, or plug valve. Compressed air acts on pistons that drive a rack-and-pinion mechanism, converting linear force into the rotary output torque needed to open or close the valve.
Typical applications of pneumatic rotary actuators:
Typical applications of pneumatic rotary actuators:
- Process automation – Fully automated opening and closing of valves in chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing, and water treatment plants
- Emergency shut-off – Fast safety isolation thanks to short switching times (milliseconds to a few seconds)
- Remote operation – Valve actuation in inaccessible or hazardous locations without manual intervention
- ATEX / Ex-rated zones – The preferred actuator type in explosive atmospheres, as pneumatic actuators are inherently spark-free
- High switching frequency – Suitable for applications with many cycles per hour at low lifecycle cost
FERGO pneumatic rotary actuators are available in two fundamental operating principles:
FERGO DA – Double Acting:
FERGO DA – Double Acting:
- Compressed air acts in both directions – opening and closing are each powered by air pressure
- Maximum torque available in both directions of rotation – ideal for high-torque valves and large pipe sizes
- On air supply failure, the valve remains in its last position (no defined fail-safe position)
- More compact construction for a given torque output compared to spring-return actuators
- Preferred where no specific fail-safe end position is required on loss of power or air
- Compressed air acts in one direction only; internal springs automatically return the valve to its pre-set fail-safe position on air failure
- Fail-safe closed (NC – Normally Closed): valve closes on air loss → fail-safe position CLOSED – standard for safety-critical isolation duties
- Fail-safe open (NO – Normally Open): valve opens on air loss → fail-safe position OPEN – e.g. cooling water lines that must remain open in an emergency
- Essential wherever process or plant safety requires a defined valve position on energy failure
- Slightly larger footprint than a double-acting actuator of equivalent rated torque
All FERGO pneumatic rotary actuators feature a standardised ISO 5211 interface. This international standard defines the bolt circle patterns, flange dimensions, and shaft profiles for direct mounting of rotary actuators onto quarter-turn valves – regardless of manufacturer.
What this means in practice:
What this means in practice:
- Direct mounting without brackets – FERGO actuators mount directly onto all FERGO quarter-turn valves: butterfly valves, ball valves, and plug valves
- Standardised output shaft – Square and double-square drive profiles from 9 mm to 22 mm per ISO 5211, covered across the standard actuator size range
- Standardised bolt pattern – F03 to F16 depending on actuator size; allows straightforward actuator interchange between different manufacturers
- Adapter kits on request – For special valves or non-standard shaft sizes, FERGO supplies matching adapter kits
Correct actuator sizing is critical for reliable operation and long service life. The following parameters must be considered:
- Required valve torque – Dependent on valve size (DN), pressure rating (PN), line pressure, and seat material. FERGO data sheets provide the torque values for each valve type; the actuator output torque should exceed the valve breakaway torque by a safety factor of at least 1.25 (double acting) or 1.5 (spring return)
- Available air supply pressure – FERGO actuators are designed for a standard supply of 5–6 bar. Lower-pressure variants are available on request
- Operating principle – Double acting (DA) delivers active torque in both directions; spring return (SR) delivers active torque in one direction only – the spring set provides the return torque
- Ambient temperature – Standard actuators are rated for −20 °C to +80 °C. With optional silicone piston rings, operation down to −40 °C is possible – essential for outdoor installations in cold climates or cryogenic processes
- Switching frequency – High cycle rates require verification of the compressed air supply capacity and optimisation of line cross-sections
The NAMUR solenoid valve (also called a pilot valve or control valve) is the interface between the electrical control system (PLC, DCS, fieldbus) and the pneumatic actuator. It converts a 24 V DC solenoid signal into an air flow that drives the rotary actuator open or closed.
FERGO supplies NAMUR solenoid valves in two configurations, matched to the actuator operating principle:
FERGO supplies NAMUR solenoid valves in two configurations, matched to the actuator operating principle:
- 3/2-way NAMUR solenoid valve – Three ports, two positions. For single-acting (SR) actuators: the valve either supplies air to the actuator or exhausts it – the spring set handles the return stroke. The fail-safe position is always adopted when the solenoid de-energises
- 5/2-way NAMUR solenoid valve – Five ports, two positions. For double-acting (DA) actuators: the two actuator chambers are alternately pressurised and exhausted to deliver active torque in both directions
A limit switch box (position feedback unit) mounts directly on top of the rotary actuator and reports the actual valve position – typically OPEN and CLOSED switching signals – back to the control system (PLC, DCS, SCADA).
Why is position feedback essential?
Why is position feedback essential?
- Confirms that the valve has actually reached the commanded position – not merely that the control signal was issued
- Enables process monitoring and alarm generation if a valve sticks or fails to close fully
- Required for Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) and protective interlocks
- Foundation for remote monitoring, operational data logging, and predictive maintenance
- Mechanical microswitches (M2) – Proven, cost-effective contact solution with adjustable OPEN and CLOSED switching points
- Inductive sensors (N2 / D2) – Contactless, wear-free position detection using IFM inductive proximity switches for high cycle rates
- IP67 protection rating – Dust-tight and waterproof; suitable for outdoor installations and harsh industrial environments
- ATEX-certified version – Approved for use in explosive atmospheres (Ex zones)
- Multi-voltage version – Compatible with multiple control voltages without hardware modification
Yes – pneumatic rotary actuators are the preferred actuator type for ATEX zones and explosive atmospheres. The fundamental safety advantage: the actuator itself contains no electrical components and therefore generates no ignition sources – it is inherently spark-free.
Key points for ATEX installations:
Key points for ATEX installations:
- Actuator body – The pneumatic rotary actuator itself does not require ATEX certification, as it contains no electrical parts
- ATEX solenoid valve – The NAMUR solenoid valve used to pilot the actuator must be certified for the relevant ATEX zone (Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21, Zone 22) – FERGO supplies ATEX-rated solenoid valves on request
- ATEX limit switch box – The position feedback unit is also available in ATEX-certified versions for Ex-zone installations
- Complete ATEX assembly – FERGO configures and supplies complete Ex-rated automation units: valve + pneumatic actuator + ATEX solenoid valve + ATEX limit switch box, assembled and tested
Beyond standard actuators for general industrial use, FERGO offers the following options and accessories:
Special versions:
Special versions:
- Low-temperature down to −40 °C – Optional silicone piston rings enable operation in extreme cold; essential for outdoor installations in arctic climates, cold stores, and cryogenic processes
- Low-pressure versions – Actuators designed for supply pressures below the standard 5–6 bar range, available on request
- ATEX versions – Complete Ex-rated automation assemblies for Zone 1/2 and Zone 21/22 (see previous question)
- NAMUR solenoid valves – 3/2-way and 5/2-way, 24 V DC, for single-acting and double-acting actuators
- Limit switch boxes (Switchmaster) – IP67, ATEX, mechanical (M2) or inductive (N2 / D2)
- Inductive sensors – IFM proximity switches for wear-free position detection
- Silencers – Exhaust noise reduction at the solenoid valve outlet port
- Flow control plates – Adjustable orifice plates to regulate actuator switching speed
- Compressed air filters – Pre-filtration to protect actuator internals from moisture and particulate contamination
- J4C Electric Part-Turn Actuator – The alternative where no compressed air supply is available; ISO 5211, multi-voltage, 10–300 Nm
