EXAMPLE
Given information: Valve Opening Torque ( VOT ) = 85 Nm.
Valve Closing Torque ( VCT ) = 80 Nm.
Minimum pressure available = 5 Bar
20% increase of VOT = 90 x 1.2 = 102 Nm. total
20% increase of VCT = 85 x 1.2 = 96 Nm. total
14.1 Move down the SPRING O° column and the actuator pressure column ( remember to use the correct
actuator air pressure column ) until you find torque values, in the same row, that are larger than the two valve torque
values.
Follow across that row to determine the actuator size and cartridge spring configuration.
Note: Stroke time is equal for opening
and closing strokes.
Time shown is for entire go-and-back cycle.
Cicle tested at 6 Bar and with 75% load of
available torque.
Type SPRINGS 0° 5 Bar
K2 51 195
K3 76 150
GTXN.127x90 K4 102 105
K5 127 60
K6 153 15
NOTE: this table is an excerpt from the sinzing chart provided by
G.T. Componenti s.r.l.
To satisfy all conditions of this application, we compare
the VOT to column marked SPRING O°, and the VCT to column
of 5 Bar. Since the GTXN.127x90.K4 satisfies both conditions we
select this actuator.
