Our Products
Rotex EHF Series Actuators are self contained; electro-hydraulic actuators are particularly well suited for applications requiring critical control and high reliability.
The EHF series has a wide range of applications and is resistant to environmental influence, even in marine environments. The electro- hydraulic actuators are recommended within district heating plants, oil and gas depots where Explosion-proof equipment is required and where pressurized air is not available or unsuitable. Within the oil and power industry, safety is of the highest importance. In emergency situations the failsafe function i.e. close or open the valve automatically with the aid of a return spring in the actuator.
Advantages:Reduced installation and maintenance costsMost reliable means of positioning a valve in a safe position on loss of power or signalThe actuator is constructed for direct mounting on valves according to ISO-standards.Designed for safety critical applicationsConfirms valve availability and minimises plant shutdownImproved process control and product qualityProvides local operator informationComplete sealing allows calibration and interrogation of the actuator in all environmentsEnvironmental protection maintained for internal components during installation and commissioningInterfaces with a variety of communication networksSuitable for harsh environments including immersion up to 7m

The two pack epoxy coating is done on a Hard Anodized surface
of the Aluminium body by the spray technique. It produces a 100mu
thick layer (only external surfaces). This epoxy coating helps in
protecting the actuator from extremely corrosive environments.
Choose this option specially for alkaline environments. It is also
suitable for environments like Ammonia, Ammonia Liquor etc. ROTEX

Life of the Solenoid depends on ambient temperature, duty cycle, temperature rise and class of insulation used for the solenoid. Temperature rise depends on design, current density and insulation system of the coil. Rotex ensures that for all its design of the coil, temperature rise above ambient is less than 70 C
As per IS 4800 standard, insulation system is designed for minimum life of for 20000 Hours When used continuously. Using the half life decay principle, every 10 C reduction of the coil temperature, twice the life can be extra polated. Considering worst temperature rise of the coil at 1.2 times the rated voltage, continuously energized coil shall be less than 70 C. For a ambient temperature of 55 C, the maximum temperature of the coil will be 55 + 70 = 125 C
For a Solenoid having class F insulation minimum life expected shall be as under:
20000 Hours at 155 C
40000 Hours at 145 C
80000 Hours at 135 C
160000 Hours at 125 C
Which means, Life of a Continuously energized Solenoid having Class F Insulation, i.e. (ambient of 55 C) is Minimum of 160000 Hrs ie 18 Yrs.
In case if more life is expected then Solenoid with better insulation or lower temperature rise is to be used (e.g. Low Power Solenoid)
