Smart Actuators

Smart actuators take advantage of the latest digital technology to offer users more benefits including greater efficiency, added features and ease of use.

Digitalization is changing and improving more and more areas of our life. GF Piping Systems supports you in actively responding to this change. As a leading supplier of piping systems, we constantly develop our products and create digital innovations. Always with the goal that you and your company become fit for the future – and also remain that way.

360° LED status display

Colored LED feedback indicates the current state of the actuator. The state is either movement, open or closed. It also indicates whether a service is required. A 360° LED and an additional one on the top ensure that the user gets a clearly visible status information, viewable from all angles.

No unexcpected downtimes

The mobile app visualizes the most important diagnostic information in a understandable way. This supports operators and service crews to identify critical constitutional changes of the actuator in challenging applications.

Fits on any standard valve (ISO 5211)

Thanks to the ISO norm, you can use the actuator on other standard valve interfaces.

Efficient installation and startup

Step by step instructions will help you with the installation – the handling afterwards is intuitive. Signal tests and optical feedback make your life easier during commissioning.
