AllValves Online to Stock New Range of Sun Yeh Actuators

Sun Yeh, the Taiwanese Actuator Specialist, has launched a new range of Stainless Steel electric actuators and additional housing options. The complete range will be available in the UK from AllValves Online.

A 316 stainless steel housing for the OM series of quarter turn electric actuators has been available from late 2014. The new housing is further evidence that the global manufacturer is continuously developing the range of quality electric actuators. Sun Yeh has launched the new housing as standard in a raw finish but will quickly have available a polished finish to allow the actuator to be used within a hygienic application. The range will cover OM1 through to OM6 covering 35Nm through to 600Nm. Stock to be held at the AllValves Online warehouse in Pershore, with stock ready made at the factory enabling very quick delivery times. The product range will be enhanced early next year once the ATEX approval is confirmed, having already achieved ATEX approval on the Linear and Spring Return range, Sun Yeh will soon add the OM series to the range of approved products. This enabling Sun Yeh to offer a stainless steel ATEX approved electric quarter turn actuator.

In addition to the above, Sun Yeh also has at their disposal housing options for the OM series of electric actuator. Also available to enhance the standard IP67 aluminium offering are the IP68 upgrade and epoxy/ED undercoating. IP68 enables the actuators to be submerged in water for example, operational whilst submerged with full test reports available. To enhance this option we can offer the epoxy coating option which sees an epoxy coating applied to the housing and base of the actuator (includes local control unit if installed) to allow the actuator to be installed in corrosive atmospheres and applications. Sun Yeh has developed this option further in recent years to add an undercoating to the epoxy finish which further protects the actuator from corrosion. Should the epoxy coating become damaged for any reason, this would expose the standard aluminium housing and cause corrosion. However, with the undercoating this prevents this from happening. Applications where we have supplied these actuators include salt spraying applications, coastal applications, fish factories where the actuator is exposed to sea water and many more.

The range also includes an adjustable speed control option, which allows the user to not only increase the working time of the actuator but also slow it down; bespoke working time solutions are available, we are working with OEM customers with a 35Nm3 second working time actuator, another with a 3 second 3 position actuator 0-90-180 degrees and actuators with 150 second fixed working times. Sun Yeh can also offer 3ph voltages, modulating controller with selectable control signal of 4-20ma and 2-10v all in one board. Local control units for local open / close control of the actuator.

Sun Yeh is working hard to further develop the range to offer a complete range of on / off, failsafe and modulating electric actuators.

Adam Chapman, Director of Allvalves Online explains the benefits of working with Sun Yeh, ‘Working with a manufacturer that is open to new features, constant development and keen to listen to what our customers want is fantastic. Following a recent visit to the factory it is clear that the quality is at the highest level and the number of global brand names that use Sun Yeh to make actuators for them is incredible. The biggest names trust in Sun Yeh, as do we and we are sure that together we will produce the complete range of electric actuators.’
