Wide range of switchboxes
15 March 2018
Valve automation provider, Actuated Solutions believes it offers the widest range of genuine APL switchboxes on the market, with more product developments in the pipeline.

Used in the water, general process and oil and gas sectors, switchboxes are a cost-effective way to monitor the performance of actuated valves, to ensure they fully open and close as required. The APL switchbox is available with a wide range of options including stainless steel housing, explosion proof or intrinsically safe certification, and is produced to high standards by Korean manufacturer, HKC.
Actuated Solutions’ MD Paul Slaughter, believes the firm is in a strong position to offer capability and continuity to businesses, but also advises caution: “We’ve noticed an increase in alternative entry-level switchbox products arriving in the UK from a variety of sources and, in many cases, they are labelled in a similar way to the APL product. When you buy a genuine APL switchbox through Actuated Solutions, you’re also buying over 30 years’ worth of experience in valve automation, expert advice, and dedicated aftersales support.
“Ultimately, if it doesn’t say APL on the box, it isn’t going to be an APL product inside.”
