Remote valve operator
08 March 2014
Smith Flow Control’s FlexiDrive II is a versatile and cost effective remote valve operator, which includes a new fully integrated counter mechanism, failsafe even in the most aggressive of environments.

The counter mechanism displays valve position (open/closed), providing the operator with a clear indication of valve status. The unit can be applied to any handwheel operated valve, including lever operated valves (quarter turns) in oil, gas or petrochemical processing plants to make them constantly accessible and safe, regardless of location.
The FlexiDrive II system allows the user to operate a valve in a place of safety/convenience. It is adaptable to any conventional valve with no modification requirements. A patented, flexible, linear drive cable effectively delivers rotary torque for distances up to 30m.
