SPD / SPS

The scotch-yoke as a further type of actuator has a U-torque characteristic, which is favorable for valves (maximum torque requirement in the end positions (OPEN / CLOSE) and shut-off valves (maximum torque requirement in the closed position).
Special kinematics have particularly advantageous mechanical properties at large armatures or at high flow rates. In these applications, a hydrodynamic torque acts on the shut-off element.         

This torque can even exceed the nominal torque requirement of the valve.
