Schneider Electric Non-Spring Return Linear Actuator

The TAC Forta globe valve actuator is a programmable linear actuator for use with VG7000, VG8000 and VG9000 series two- and three-way valves. Forta's flexible control signal is easily setup for floating or proportional control, direct or reverse acting, stroke timing and flow characteristics. Fortas One Touch automatic input control signal setup allows for easy field installation onto existing Invensys globe valves. The Forta actuator can also be purchased as part of a complete valve assembly for new applications/installations.
