COMPONENTS
ACTUATORS
Nordic Flow Control’s actuators are manufactured using sophisticated machinery in our own production plant. They
convert hydraulic energy directly into a mechanical rotating movement by using the rack and pinion principle, elimi-
nating cost from intensive servicing, maintenance and the sensitivity of transmission elements.
Our actuators are created for durability, performance and cost effectiveness. Our new NRA series actuators are now
more compact and provide higher torque at even smaller sizes. They have a longer life span, with higher efficiency.
Polymer bearings for smaller actuators and ball bearings for bigger actuators are used to reduce friction between the
parts. Mounting is according to ISO5211 standards, but can be customised to meet other requirements.
With no need for valves to be dismounted, maintenance work during normal operations is possible, cutting down-
time needed for repairs. A set of repair kit will be provided for every actuator supplied.

VALVE POSITION INDICATOR
When the actuator is submerged, the measurement of the actuator position
by means of direct indication is not feasible. Nordic Flow Control’s Valve
Position Indicator (VPI) can be used for both non-submerged and submerged
*ÃÌÊ`V>ÌÀÊ6*®ÊV>ÊLiÊÕÃi`ÊvÀÊLÌÊÃÕLiÀ}i`Ê>`ÊÃÕLiÀ}i`Ê
applications, allowing accurate actuator measurement regardless of setup.
The basic intention of the VPI is to receive and measure position feedback from
the actuator. The working principle behind is through the measurement of the
oil displacement flow. A gear wheel connected to the oil flow rotates when
Ê`Ã«>ViiÌÊyÜ°ÊÊ}i>ÀÊÜiiÊViVÌi`ÊÌÊÌiÊÊyÜÊÀÌ>ÌiÃÊÜiÊ
the actuator is rotated. The rotation of the gear wheel is also connected to a

LOCAL INDICATOR
Nordic Flow Control Local Indicator is used to display the position of the valve (OPEN/CLOSE) locally if the valve is in
a submerged location. Once the incoming pressure exceeds the pressure setting on the pressure relief valve inside
the local indicator, the oil would flow to a small chamber, causing the piston to move towards one side; as a result
the indicator would deflect and gives the OPEN/CLOSE status of the valve.

System Overview
OVERVIEW
Nordic Flow Control’s Electric Valve Remote Control Systems provide a compact, all-in-one solution for your electrical
actuation needs.
BENEFITS
• Combines high levels of functionality with precise positioning and multiple points
• Electronic systems are easy to program for complex functions
• Ease of maintenance

COMPONENTS
Electrical Actuators
Features
• Compact construction with a high output torque
• Self-locking gear train maintains the position of the valve when the actuator is de-energised
• Very good resistance to vibration
• Adjustable mechanical travel limit stops prevent over travel
• Emergency hand wheel and mechanical position indicator provided on all actuators as a standard
• Fixing flange according to ISO standard
• Removable drive socket for easy machining
• Designed to fully open or close on an average of 20 to 30 times a day
• Class III modulating actuators allows for selection between intermediate positions, for an average of 360 times
per day, with a precision better than 2%
• Waterproof enclosure
• Corrosion resistant design
• Explosion proof design
• Motors are easily removable with front and rear totally enclosed lubricated ball bearings
• Motors rated to S4 service (intermittent duty with starting under load) according to IEC 34-1

Components
• Transmission Gears
The gear drive system is composed of 2 reduction stages:
The first stage: A planetary system driven directly by a pinion on the motor drive shaft.
The second stage: Driven by the satellite wheels of the planetary gear consisting of a worm and wheel gear
type.
Since the planetary system permits a high speed reduction with an excellent efficiency, the subsequent gear is
driven at a relatively low speed which ensures a better overall efficiency than normal standard gear designs. The
gears are mechanically irreversible.
• Emergency Hand Wheel

In case of loss of power supply or a faulty control system, the presence of a hand wheel enables the operator to
easily drive the valve to any required position manually.
• Position Indicator
A visual position indicator allows for a clear indication of the current valve position. In fact, this indicator is
mechanically linked to the valve shaft.
• Travel Limit Switches

Adjustment of travel limit switches is simply accomplished with a standard screwdriver, no disassembly is required.
This reduces downtime due to maintenance.
• Asynchronous Motors
The asynchronous motor technology offers the highest ratio of starting torque versus nominal torque. Thus, the
actuator maximum torque capacity is available from the beginning of travel to unseat the valve.
• Motor Thermal Protection

A built-in motor thermal switch protects the motor from excessive overheating conditions.
• Torque Sensors
The output torque for valve operation is permanently measured by the lever deflection of the planetary gear
external crown. This crown gear is maintained in position by two calibrated linear springs which can be set
independently for each rotational direction to a desired torque value.
In the event the torque setting is reached, the crown lever compresses the spring to a point where a microswitch
is tripped.
As this unique system is mechanically friction-free, exceptional precision and repeatability are obtained, which is
highly appreciated when the device has to “close on torque”.
• Detachable Drive Bush

The output drive socket can be easily removed from the actuator, without the use of any special tool, for adaptation
to the valve shaft.
• Lifetime Lubrication
The gear design permits lifelong lubrication by grease, thus reducing periodic maintenance requirements
considerably.

General Specifications
Basic actuators include motor with thermal protection, gear case, emergency hand wheel, connection box, travel
limit switches, torque switches and output drive with removable socket.

controlling valves and actuators remotely, developed to be mounted directly on Nordic’s actuators on board vessels
and offshore platforms.
The EHU consists of a hydraulic pump driven by an electric motor. When in operation, the oil is siphoned from the
tank through the suction filter to the pump, which then goes through the pilot operated check valve to the actuator
port, causing the actuator to open the valves.
When the valve is fully opened, the motor will be stopped by a limit switch. The actuator in this instance will be
hydraulically locked in position by the pilot check valve. Emergency operation can be conducted for both double and
single acting EHU using the manual override using a portable hand pump connecting to the quick coupling port.
For single acting EHU, during loss of power, it causes hydraulic pressure drop and normally closed 2/2-way solenoid
poppet valve open contact. Compressed spring will be released and quickly closes the valve for safety purpose.
Alternatively, NORDIC Electro-Hydraulic actuators can be operated locally through a Local Control Box. The Local
Control Box contains two push buttons for “OPEN” and “CLOSE” functions, and a Local/Remote key to choose the
mode of control, whether locally or remotely.
In addition, Electro-Hydraulic actuators can be interfaced through PROFIBUS.
ABOUT PROFIBUS
Applications
PROFIBUS is able to seamlessly connect all types of devices without having
to isolate process instruments from discrete devices with a second bus. In
particular, PROFIBUS DP can be used to easily and reliably integrate Motor
Control Centers (MCC), variable speed drives and switching gear with
control systems.
PROFIBUS PA, which integrates seamlessly to DP, is used to network

and provide power to field instruments. Both media types support the
PROFIsafe profile for process safety, which allows the use of distributed
fail-safe I/O.
The system is applied to network control of electro-hydraulic operated

valves for ballast, bilge and fuel & cargo oil handling valve remote control
systems. PROFIBUS DP serial communication is ideally suited to the control
of NORDIC EHU. The PROFIBUS DP network can operate over a range of
communication speeds and provides the mechanism for control of the
actuator and feedback of EHU. The latest NORDIC EHU PROFIBUS DP
cards support standard PROFIBUS DP.
Advantages
• Suitable for marine applications
• Adaptable for applications like easy plug and play
• Capable of remote operation without any bus interface (bus optional)
• Override possible on the Electro-Hydraulic itself through a Local Control Box or manually through a portable
hand pump
• The standard GSD files allow all PROFIBUS DP master devices to easily configure the system
• Standardized I/O System reduces the number of spares needed
• A network using PROFIBUS DP provides a cost effective method for connecting EHU in any location to the
central control system simply and efficiently
