Solenoid Actuator MB 7
The solenoid actuator MB 7 serves as a drive for the butterfly valve BVHM. The unit made up of solenoid actuator MB 7 and butterfly valve BVHM can be used for staged control of industrial installations in cold- or hot-air operating modes.
Solenoid actuator MB 7 indicates the position of the valve disc. The air volumes for low and high fire can be controlled independently.
Due to the large number of operating cycles of solenoid actuator MB 7, the butterfly valve BVHM is suitable for intermittent operation.
Features
- For gas, air, hot air and flue gas

Large number of operating cycles for intermittent operation
Solenoid actuator MB 7 with butterfly valve BVHM is suitable for intermittent operation. The air volumes for low and high fire can be set independently on the solenoid actuator MB 7. |
 |
Air supply to forging furnace
The air supply to the forging furnace is controlled by the solenoid actuator MB 7 with slow opening and slow closing damping unit in conjunction with the butterfly valve BVHM. Since the valve disc is provided with a stop, the oxygen level in the furnace atmosphere is reduced in order to prevent scale formation on the material to be treated to an even larger extent. |
 |
Cooling air for annealing furnace
A fan introduces additional cooling air into the furnace through air nozzles. The air volume is controlled by the solenoid actuator MB 7 without damping unit and the butterfly valve BVHM. |
