Valve Mounting Service
Kinetrol Interfacing Options
Kinetrol is continually responding to the evolving requirements of the industry for interfacing
arrangements that satisfy user needs and conform to industry standards and we offer a range of
designs that enable our equipment to be effectively and economically mounted.
Kinetrol can supply direct mounting limit switch boxes, positioners and other control modules
that eliminate the costs associated with interfacing hardware and provide compact assemblies.
Recent actuator topworks changes have enhanced the interchangeability of the control modules.
Various female drive spring fail-safe and hand spring unit options are available to facilitate direct
mounting to valves with topworks details that conform to the ISO 5211 standard.
The innovative, patented, ISO adaptor is available for Kinetrol actuator models 02-09 and
provides a versatile and robust mounting option. The adaptor is suitable for use with a wide
range of ISO topworks valves (see page 6).
Our larger actuator models 16 and above are manufactured with a drive slot and insert option,
designed to interface with ancillary drives that comply with the VDI/VDE 3485 norm.
For compact and space-saving solenoid valve mounting, Kinetrol offers a NAMUR interface
adaptor for models 03 to 14 which allows the air supply to be ported directly to the actuator
body, thereby eliminating the need for any external piping.
