Abstract: A valve actuator has a set of sensors (2) for detection of the internal parameters of the actuator, a controller (3) for recording and storing the parameters and the operations performed by the actuator, a wireless module (5) to temporarily and omnidirectionally connect the actuator with a PDA (Personal Data Assistant) or a PC (pocket PC) (6) which controls the actuation thereof. The wireless module (5) further allows to download the collected data for analysis and to achieve an early diagnosis of any failure and/or inefficiency of the actuator. The wireless module (5) includes a transceiver operating at the frequency of 2.4 GHz.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of the submarine valve actuators, and specifically to those actuators, that in order to effect a standard valve closing operation are connected to an oleo system feeding an hydraulic cylinder (1), whose plunger (3), by a mechanical link, operates the valve and compresses a spring (8) which provides for the standard opening operation. Said actuators are provided with an input shaft (21) for connectin a ROV for valve opening and closing operations when there is a failure in the oleo system. The connection between the ROV-operated input shaft (21) and the mechanical link between the piston (3) and the spring (8) is carried out by a planetary gear reducer (15).

Abstract: The invention finds application in the field of electric valve actuators. Particularly, the invention relates to a magnetic absolute angular position sensor for valves controlled by electric part-turn actuators, wherein the rotation ? of the valve shaft (10) induces a change in the direction along which the lines of the magnetic field generated by a magnet (8) integral therewith, pass through a stationary circuit board (7), containing two Wheatstone bridges arranged at 45° to each other, and made of a magneto-resistive material. Hence, two 90° electric signals X and Y are generated, having the same amplitude, which allow to uniquely determine the angle of rotation ? of the shaft (10).

Abstract: Position detector (1), particularly for electrical valve actuators, comprising a disk (2) fixedly connected to an actuator and provided with a mapping defining a reference for detecting the actuator displacement; and means for detecting the actuator displacement by said mapping. Said mapping is formed by a plurality of permanent magnets operatively arranged along the disk (2) circumference, the polarity of each magnet being opposed to the polarity of two immediately adjacent magnets.
