Flowrite SKB/SKC Valve Actuator.
Description
Designed for use with Flowrite and other standard valves 
with a 3/4-inch and 1-1/2-inch (20 and 40 mm) strokes,  
the Flowrite SKB/SKC Electronic Valve Actuator receives  
a 0 to 10 Vdc or 4 to 20 mA control signal to proportionally 
control the valve. The actuators are available with 
standard or advanced functionality.
