Actuated Ball Valves: The Future of Automated Flow Control
An Actuated Ball Valve is a rotating ball-type valve designed without a manual handle to allow for direct mounting of an actuator. These units are the backbone of modern process plants, enabling remote operation, automated safety shutdowns, and precision fluid metering.
Smart Features of FlowBiz Actuators
FlowBiz ensures that the "brain" of your valve is as robust as the "body":
- Inbuilt Anti-Condensation Heater: To maximize electronic service life and prevent internal moisture buildup, we offer an inbuilt heater as a standard feature.
- End-of-Stroke Confirmation: Each unit includes two SPDT volt-free end-of-travel switches, allowing your control room to receive real-time confirmation of whether the valve is fully open or closed.
- Advanced Control Options: Our range extends beyond simple on/off. We offer Intelligent Control (Modulating), WiFi connectivity, High-speed actuation, and Timer-controlled cycles.
- Fail-Safe Technology: Available in "Fail-Open" or "Fail-Closed" configurations (using battery backups or spring returns) to ensure plant safety during power loss.

Core Advantages of FlowBiz Automation
- Robust Construction: IP67-rated housings ensure the actuator remains dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets or temporary immersion.
- Precision Metering: When paired with a digital positioner, our ball valves can be used for precise flow regulation (Throttling).
- Reduced Labor Costs: Automation removes the need for manual intervention in remote or hazardous areas.
- Long Service Life: Self-lubricating seals and precision-ground balls minimize friction, ensuring thousands of maintenance-free cycles.
Strategic Industrial Applications
- Water Treatment: Automated chemical dosing and backwash cycles.
- Food & Pharma: Precision batching systems and CIP (Clean-in-Place) lines.
- Oil & Gas: Remote pipeline isolation and emergency shutdown systems (ESD).
- HVAC & Utilities: Smart building management and cooling tower control.
