Sofis Valve Operation products

SFC’s EasiDrive portable valve actuator effortlessly opens and closes valves in oil refineries, chemical and power plants, water and wastewater facilities and paper mills. The tool is especially effective on valves that require a high number of turns or are otherwise difficult to operate because of high torque or where adverse climates (sub-zero, tropical, dessert environments) make operations more challenging. It has several key features that make it exceptional. One operator can efficiently work banks of valves with a single tool, whilst reducing fatigue and risk of injury; this can result in major cost and time savings. The EasiDrive system is versatile and can be powered by air, electricity or battery. Torque of up to 950NM can be generated, depending on the client’s choice of equipment.

FlexiDrive is a versatile product consisting of two stations, joined by a  linear drive cable, which enables valves and other wheel operated devices in remote, hard-to-reach or hazardous locations to be operated with ease from a conveniently located handwheel. FlexiDrive can be applied to any conventional wheel-operated valve/device. It is suitable for underwater use and the most extreme climatic conditions. The cable system can deliver torque output for most manual valve operations and transmits drive up to 30 metres from the operator station. The flexible cable system facilitates up to 540° of bends in the cable run.
