Since 1929, more than 1 million Limitorque actuators have been installed around the world, and some have been operating for more than half a century. These world-class actuators have been used to consistently drive multi-turn and quarter-turn industrial valves and dampers.
Limitorque changed the industry with its strategic introduction of a “torque-limiting” design. Today, all heavy-duty electric actuators use some device that “limits the torque” to safely operate automated valves and protect against over-torque damage.
