Self-Contained Electro-Hydraulic Systems

Overview

Originally developed for the offshore Oil & Gas Industry, Paladon Systems Self-Contained Electro-Hydraulic Valve Automation Systems provide a rugged and reliable valve automation solution. Typically used in applications in which external pneumatic or hydraulic power sources are unavailable, unreliable or uneconomic, these fully customizable and compact valve automation systems provide operators with many significant operational benefits when compared to purely electric, pneumatic or hydraulic systems.

Applications

Fully customizable systems are available for practically any application and environment; however, common ones include:

Partial valve stroking

Onshore and offshore ESD valves

Wellhead choke valve positioning

Control & globe valve positioning

Water reservoir level systems

Suction and discharge pump metering stations

Gas pipeline linebreak shutoff systems

Ballast systems for FPSOs

Refinery fire control systems

Tanker loading/offloading facilities

Key Features & Benefits

The same simplicity and low cost of installation as provided by electric actuators

Fail safe or fail last operation

The power, precision and compact size of high pressure hydraulic systems

Industry-leading control options and system diagnostics

Zero emissions

Environmentally responsible via low power, solar powered and biodegradable fluid options
