VALPES VR Electric Quarter-Turn Actuator

VALPES VR is an electric quarter-turn actuator designed for ball valves, butterfly valves, plug valves, and 3-way valves. Models VR25, VR45, VR75 correspond to maximum torques of 25, 45, and 75 Nm, with nominal torques of 20, 35, and 60 Nm respectively.

Technical Specifications

  • Rotation: 90° standard, 180° or 270° available on request.
  • Power supply: 100–240 V AC / 100–350 V DC, 15–30 V AC / 12–48 V DC, and 400 V 3-phase.
  • 90° operating time: 7 s, 15 s, or 20 s depending on size.
  • Duty cycle: S4 50% per IEC34 / IEC60034.
  • Valve interface: ISO 5211 F05/F07, star drive 17 mm.
  • Ambient temperature: -20 to +70 °C, or -10 to +40 °C for BBPR / GPS / GFS variants.
  • Enclosure: IP68, 2 m / 72 h for plastic cover, 5 m / 72 h for aluminum cover.

Control and Feedback

Standard operation is on-off or 3-point modulating. Includes 2 adjustable position switches, mechanical stops at 0°/90°, visual position indicator, manual override, anti-condensation heater, and electronic torque limiter (except 400 V models). Options: BBPR, POSI 4–20 mA / 0–10 V, 3 positions, Modbus-RTU, Bluetooth / AXMART.

Selection Logic

Actuator sizing uses a safety factor of 1.5 × maximum valve torque, or 2 × for POSI version. Consider differential pressure, seat material, idle time, deposits, and operating frequency.

Applications

Suitable for water, air, HVAC, utility networks, water treatment, marine applications, and 3-way valves. Media compatibility is determined by the valve; actuator selection is based on torque, 90° time, voltage, IP rating, and control signal.

FAQ

When is POSI selected?
For continuous valve position control via PLC or BMS with analog input.

What is checked during maintenance?
Cable glands, IP68 sealing, limit switches, mechanical stops, manual override, torque limiter, and feedback to automation system.
