Reliable and optimised solutions for wastewater treatment In the wastewater industry easy control and monitoring are key elements for ensuring optimal day-to-day running of wastewater treatment facilities. LINAK ® actuators provide easy to monitor automation for a wide range of applications within this industry, which ensures a reliable operation in the facility in that the operator knows if the valves are running optimally according to their position. An electric movement solution from LINAK is easy and simple to install and can be used for several different types of valves, e.g. slide gate, sluice gate/ penstock, gate and knife gate valves that are mounted in wells and around the wastewater facilities. Also, when using a LINAK actuator solution high service costs are avoided because the actuators are maintenance-free. With a LINAK actuator it is possible to control valves over long distances using an internal communication and feedback system. The system can also connect with SCADA. This ensures that the valves can open and close variably, leading the wastewater in the right direction. Furthermore, if the control system is down, it is possible to operate the actuator manually. A LINAK system has many advantages: • Easy to install and to operate (by means of hand controls, remote controls or switches) • Compatible with various PLC systems – no need for extra backup • Maintenance free • Built-in feedback • Low operating costs • Low standby power consumption • Robust and reliable solution well-suited for operation in very harsh environments (IP69K) • Offers a good price/performance ratio compared to pneumatics • An environmentally friendly solution • A complete movement solution • High self-locking ability, also when the actuator is turned off • Precise position feedback and accurate variable control over acceleration and velocity LINAK as your partner We do not want to be merely another supplier to our customers.
