Electroless nickel plated and polished cylinder for corrosion resistance and minimal friction Peculiarly designed piston seals consisting of a teflon U ring with a special elastomer centred into its sealing face, squeezed against the cylinder tube by an underlying O-ring: the combination of the three elements gives an effective seal, both with low and high oil pressure, with low friction and high sensitivity assuring long service life and preventing sticking problems Hard chromium plated and polished piston rod in stainless steel for corrosion resistance and minimum friction. Piston rod supported by bushing made of bronze with sintered TEFLON to provide minimal friction and extended service life Stroke adjustment with mechanical travel stop in one direction. The stroke adjustment for the opposite direction is made with the stem joint position transmitters Factory totally enclosed spring explosionproof, intrinsically safe cartridge, for single acting version, and/or weatherproof to prevent any damage to - oil filters personnel during assembling or - solenoid valves - explosionproof, disassembling. intrinsically safe and/or Modular design which allows to weatherproof transform the linear actuator, also control units for modulating in field, from spring to close action service: to spring to open action or -electrohydraulic "step-by-step" viceversa, using the same pieces. electrohydraulic proportional Adapter spool in fabricated carbon valves complete with electronic steel, specifically designed for control panel adaptation to any type of valve electrohydraulic servovalves with provision for local indicator, spool-type or poppet-type (no limit switches and other leakage) control valves accessories. dump valves, flow regulators, An extensive range of accessories relief valves is available: electric pressure switches limit switch boxes bladder-type or piston-type explosionproof, intrinsically safe accumulators PED and ASME and/or weatherproof limit switches can be provided in stamped. Accumulators in different types according to accordance with different codes customer requirements on request

HLA/HLAS Hydraulic Actuator Biffi can provide a complete range of double acting and spring-return hydraulic linear actuators “HLA” and "HLAS". These actuators can use the same cylinders . The spring module can be mounted direct for "spring to close" action or reversed for "spring to open" action. Due to the large range of combinations "thrust-stroke" required for the various applications (i.e. gate valve low pressure / high pressure, globe valve low pressure / high pressure, spring action), please contact the Factory in order to obtain the right actuator design for your application.
