With multifaceted mechanical systems––systems with many moving parts––it is almost inevitable that, at some point, a part of the system will fail with little to no warning at all. If that problem is not caught quickly, because of the way all parts of your machines are interconnected, the damage can begin to compound, and a costly but manageable problem can grow into an enormous and expensive headache. This is why we suggest that every large mechanical operation have an emergency repair service on call. Here are some benefits to having a plan for the eventuality of needing an emergency industrial valve repair service in Utah.

An actuator is a motor that converts energy into torque. This torque is then used to move or control a part or component as a part of the system. An electric actuator can initiate movement, but it can also prevent it. An actuator typically runs on electricity or pressure, and the control system can be controlled mechanically or electronically. The actuator plays an important role in day-to-day operations in an industrial setting, so it is important that it is operating safely and effectively. Occasionally, an actuator that has not been properly cared for or inspected might malfunction, which can cause a whole host of problems, including serious safety concerns. Several years ago, the Limitorque brand actuator found itself in the spotlight because of an incident in Florida involving an actuator that resulted in a death. Since this incident, there has been an increasing push to get people to have their actuators regularly inspected, in some cases necessitating emergency industrial valve repair in Utah. Proper inspections along with regular preventative maintenance can greatly reduce the risk of an actuator malfunction: Take the time to perform a thorough visual inspection of all external surfaces of your actuator. This should include paint finishes,... View Article
