Kinitics Automation Introduces the Next Generation of Valve Actuators – the KVA38
Kinitics Automation , a leading innovator in motion control solutions , proudly announces the commercial launch of its latest product , the KVA38 . Designed to meet the stringent demands of the energy sector , the KVA38 is an electric valve actuator that leverages advanced Shape Memory
Alloy ( SMA ) technology that combines precise linear motion with mechanical spring return , setting a new benchmark for performance and reliability .
The KVA38 is engineered for long life with minimal maintenance and universal compatibility with globe valves , making it an ideal alternative to pneumatic actuators . Utilizing SMA technology , the KVA38 delivers zero-deadband proportional control at 100 % duty without sacrificing longevity like conventional electric actuators . Its mechanical spring design provides failclosed functionality in the event of power or signal loss , enhancing operational safety .

Oxygen-Ready Ball Valves
Following a comprehensive examination by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing ( BAM ), GEMÜ BB02 , B22 , B42 and B52 ball valves have been deemed “ suitable for use with oxygen ”. This marks a valuable addition to the ex- isting range of products , which already includes globe and diaphragm valves as well as butterfly valves for oxygen .
The ball valve seals were examined in strict compliance with DIN EN 1797 and ISO 21010 , and clear conditions for safe use were defined during this process . This means that GEMÜ BB02 , B22 , B42 and B52 ball valves are suitable for the use of gaseous oxygen provided the operating temperature does not exceed 60 ° C and the maximum operating pressure is 30 bar . PTFE seals and O-rings made from fluorinated rubber ( FKM ) are used as the seal materials . GEMÜ customers can order the special “ O ” version of the ball valves for use with oxygen .
