Various safety aspects protect you during the setup and operation.

Repetitive actions subject the body to stress. Operators responsible for maintenance in large utility or refinery plants are at risk of occupational health issues, such as muscular or skeletal illnesses from repetitive strain injury (RSI) or over-exertion. They are also more prone to workplace accidents if proper procedures are not followed. A specific challenge for operators is the frequent manual operation of valves. Manually rotating these valves involves highly repetitive motions, repeatedly straining the same muscles and body parts. Additionally, remaining in the same position for extended periods causes fatigue, adding to the risk. With a Sofis portable actuator, you avoid operator injuries caused by strain or over-exertion during manual valve operations.

You can use the open end Power Wrench for any type of valve. Preparing the valve only takes minutes. You quickly bolt a universal drive plate onto the hand wheel. Then connect the tool to your plant air system and you are ready for operation.

The Power Wrench portable actuator is equipped with various features to ensure ease of use for the operator and support the safe operation in the field. The throttle allows for a controlled build-up of torque and speed and the safety lever and throttle valve enforce ‘2-hands operation’.

Powered by pneumatic pressure (4-7 bar), this ATEX-certified portable valve actuator can operate handwheel valves of any size. With up to 515Nm of torque available at the twist of a throttle, it effortlessly handles even the heaviest handwheels.
