Portable valve actuators

The company modec® has been manufacturing high-quality valve turning machines for mobile use for over ten years. Since the end of 2021, we have been cooperating with modec® in this field.

These valve turning machines have been designed to facilitate the opening and closing of valves for operating personnel. As one of the few providers, modec® considers DIN EN ISO 11148 and DIN EN 62841 regarding the absorption of reaction torque. In addition to easy transport and simple setup, the valve turning machines provide safety for the operating personnel, tools, and the infrastructure involved.

We have a complete range of demonstration equipment and would like to take the opportunity to demonstrate these to you and inform you about the benefits of the products.

Especially for water network operators, the portable valve actuators from Modec are valuable tools for meeting the requirements outlined in DVGW worksheets W 392 and W 400-3-B1. These tools make it easier and more efficient to fulfill the requirements for inspecting and maintaining system components and operating facilities, including shut-off valves and hydrants.

Water supply networks are aging, posing significant challenges for utilities. Strategic asset management helps address these challenges, including preventive maintenance and condition assessment of water supply facilities. Regular and complete actuation of shut-off valves using gate valve turning machines supports these efforts. This facilitates a quick entry into technical asset management by enabling a systematic and qualified assessment of the current condition, identifying weaknesses, minimizing risks, and creating analyzable data. The valve condition assessment forms the backbone of these efforts, enabling concrete recommendations and prioritized action plans to be derived.
