You’ll find some of the largest fluid circuit lines in the world at refineries and large-scale chemical processing plants, where miles of large-diameter tubing is commonplace. Because it is clean, safe, compact, and powerful, pneumatics is widely used to actuate large valves in these applications. Lehigh Fluid Power, Lambertville, N. J., provides a wide variety of cylinders for use in valve actuators.
Lehigh’s VAC cylinder line comes in carbon and stainless steel, and a lightweight version has a barrel made of lightweight composite. VAC cylinders are available in standard bores from 8 to 16 in. All use Lehigh’s Miraclube feature, a system that self-lubricates the rod and piston bearings with a nontoxic lubricant that will not attack seals or fuse seals to the tube ID if the piston remains in one position for an extended length of time.
