Were making big news in control valve actuators. Well change your opinion
2、about electronic actuators forever. Were intro- ducing a global line of direct-coupled electronic actua- tors, with proven performance in over one million applica- tions throughout the world. Besides extraordinary relia- bility, they offer significant competi- tive advantages. Installation requires
3、just two bolts and a nut! Higher forces, with up to 1,000 Ibs. of thrust. Spring return fail- safe operation. Manual override and more. Worth waiting for: Air damper actuators with every advantage. To be phased in over the coming months are new damper actuators. Weve taken the time to develop actuat
4、ors that incorporate the best of all possible solutions. Actuators within a specific torque class share a common, full metal housing whether utilizing two-position or modulating control. And there is no need for externally- mounted auxiliary devices. Spring return fail-safe operation is inte- gral.
5、Built-in conduit connectors, manual override, and posi- tion switches sim- plify installation. Fewer parts maxi- mize reliability. We have incorporated the proven motor technology for Flowrite“ valve quality, direct-coupled simplicity. Flowrite“ valves have been stan- dardized according to a global
6、system to achieve a direct- coupled interface. Just two stroke lengths replace 13, one bonnet replaces three, optimizing product selection, ordering and installation. Single piece car- tridge-style pack- ings vastly simplify replacement for easier mainte- nance. The new flowrite“ valves allow you to
7、 take full advantage of sophisticated technology. Our design permits incremental flow adjustments as pre- cise as your control system requires, and the valves meet the latest ANSI specifications for face-to-face dimension, flow characteristic and seat leakage. computer hard drives into our “smart“ m
8、otor drives. Each new actuator comes with a patented self-centering shaft alignment, eliminat- ing inefficient and potentially damag- ing eccentric motion, providing for easy installation.

Eber said Trane introduced its first absorption chiller in the early 1960s at a time when energy was cheap and absorption technology was
40、 used extensively in chilled water plants. The market dropped dramati- tally in 1973 with the oil embargo but Trane continued to design and build absorption chillers. This 30 years of commitment to absorption technology, said Eber, has left Trane poised to take advantage of the renewed interest. “Ga
41、s-fired machines, in particular, have become popular as a result of high elec- trical demand charges and attractive gas pricing: said Eber. “There is also growing interest in hybrid chiller plants. We believe these factors will place more importance on absorption chillers in future markets! The Hori

The pre-engineered modular concept allows Trane to mix-match components for flexibility and ancillary uses such as water heating. The modular concept also allows easy disassembly prior to shipping and reassembly at t
