Precise control for fluid handling and process technology
Laboratories, pharmaceutical, chemical and water systems rely on accurate flow control. RIFT actuators combine 0.1° positioning on selected models with low-power operation.
Accuracy and traceability
Process technology demands repeatable movement and a record of how valves behave.
Typical applications
- Pharmaceutical
- Chemical dosing
- Laboratory systems
- Pure water
- Process utilities
Fluid technologyHow RIFT helps: Fluid handling & process
0.1° positioning
RAL 300 positioning accuracy for fine control.
Movement records
Cycle and movement data support traceability.
Configurable
Torque limits, speed and failsafe set electronically.
Valve assemblies
Supplied with matched valves and mounting kits.
The RIFT stack, applied to Fluid handling & process
Add the layers your application needs. The actuator stays fully functional at every level.
Recommended actuators
A starting point — every RIFT actuator is configured to the valve, supply and control signal.
