Actuator

Actuators are pivotal components within the control loop, comprising a sensing device, controller, and actuator attached to a valve. They are responsible for governing system movement, regulating fluid or gas flow by opening or closing the valve. Actuators are indispensable in industries requiring precise and automated flow control.

Typical classifications of actuators include : pneumatic actuators (diaphragm, piston cylinder, vane, etc.), electronic motor actuators, and electrohydraulic actuators.
