Scapin APB160N Portable Valve Actuator

A versatile cordless battery-powered portable valve actuator, designed to take the hard work out of turning difficult valves.

For valves that have become stiff to turn, this device offers up to 168Nm (124ft/lbs) continuous torque and breakout torque of 176Nm (130 ft/lbs).

For valves with a high number of wheel rotations, this device can quickly open and close valves with an output speed of 78RPM.

Connect to the valve with a selection of bushings and drive adaptors.

This Portable Valve Actuator Kit includes the following accessories:

• Night Light for Working in Reduced Lightning.
• Plastic Storage Case
• 2 x 4Ah Li-ion Batteries
• Battery Charger
• Shoulder Belt.

The Scapin GREEN POWER LINE includes the full set of Portable Actuation devices for valves, penstocks and sluice gates equipped with a Li-ion battery motor.

The output torque (in Nm) and the related output speed (in RPM) of the APB devices are adjustable according to the finger pressure on the accelerator button: when fully pressed, the units operate at their continuous torque value, further reaching their maximum torque when facing resistance during the operation; above these values, a thermal circuit breaker will stop the engine until the next manual ‘reset’.

Very simple and easy to use, these devices are the ultimate tool for water operators looking for power on particular sites, such as underground chambers, or in case of multiple ‘short’ daily interventions on valves and gates, as well as representing a valuable alternative to the ‘classic’ electrified fixed actuation systems.
