There is an increasing need for remote control of many valves, including Needle multi-turn style valves. Until recently, this required a combination of both pneumatic and electric systems working in tandem, which is cumbersome and expensive to operate.

Parker Autoclave Engineers has developed an All-Electric Regulating/Full Closure actuator for use with the MPI™ (Medium Pressure Inverted (Gland)) connection style needle valves.

Available in Weather-Proof or Explosion-Proof versions, these actuators allow for remote control and feedback to digital control systems with just a 4-20mA signal.
