IPT's mobile RO trailers did the impossible. They treated 250,000,000 gallons of high TDS, ultra high silica wastewater at nearly 60% recovery. Amazing stuff.
Valve Actuators
- IPT can design, fabricate, and install custom brackets such that practically any valve actuator can be mounted to any valve body for just about every application imaginable over a wide spectrum of materials of construction: cast iron, ductile iron, stainless steel, thermoplastic and noble metals. Brackets are machined to customer's or manufacturer's specifications and when completed, the valve assemblies are calibrated and tested to insure the highest quality, reliability and performance possible.
Please note that effective July 1, 2010, IPT will no longer represent or perform distributor functions for EIM. Thank you.

Some notes on the various Types of Actuators:
A manual actuator employs levers, gears or wheels to facilitate movement.
An automatic actuator has an external power source to provide the force and motion to operate a valve remotely or automatically. Power actuators are a necessity on valves in pipelines located in remote areas: they are also used on valves that are frequently operated or throttled.
Valves that are particularly large may be impossible or impractical to operate manually simply by the sheer horsepower requirements. Some valves may be located in extremely hostile or toxic environments, which preclude manual operation. Additionally, as a safety feature, certain types of power actuators may be required to operate quickly, shutting down a valve in case of emergency.
Hydraulic and Pneumatic Actuators - The hydraulic and pneumatic actuators are often simple devices with a minimum of mechanical parts, used on linear or quarter-turn valves. Sufficient air or fluid pressure acts on a piston to provide thrust in a linear motion for gate or globe valves. Alternatively, the thrust may be mechanically converted to rotary motion to operate a quarter-turn valve.
Most types of fluid power actuators can be supplied with fail-safe features to close or open a valve under emergency circumstances.
Electric Actuators - The electric actuator has a motor drive that provides torque to operate a valve. Electric actuators are frequently used on multi-turn valves such as gate or globe valves. With the addition of a quarter-turn gearbox, they can be utilized on ball, plug, or other quarter-turn valves.
