VA-9070 Series Electric Rotary Actuators for Two-Position and Modulating
Service

Description

The VA-9070 Series Electric Rotary Actuators for Two-Position and
Modulating Service are designed for direct mounting on VF Series
Butterfly Valves. The VA-9070 is available in eight different sizes, for
two-position and modulating service on VF Series Standard-Pressure,
Standard-Temperature Butterfly Valves and VF Series High-Pressure,
High-Temperature Buttery Valves.

Refer to the VA-9070 Series Electric Rotary Actuators for Two-Position
and Modulating Service Product Bulletin (LIT-977319) for important
product application information.

Features
