Power Wrench
05 June 2013
Plastics and chemicals producer, SABIC, has been using the Netherlocks Power Wrench as an efficient alternative to multiple actuators for operating its hand wheel valves.
The two companies have now produced a video about how the wrench can be used to save time, effort and cost: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYLPu5yeR-I.
Using pneumatic pressure (4-8 bar) the Atex-certified power wrench is a mobile tool for operating any size of handwheel valve, with up to 515Nm of torque available to the user with a twist of the throttle – making light work of even the heaviest handwheels.
Weighing just 10.2kg, Netherlocks has integrated ‘2-hands’ operation for added safety.
