WATER
Actuator Systems – Proven and Certified Worldwide
The abstraction and distribution of drinking water and the drainage and treatment of wastewater are the basic prerequisites for the development of infrastructure. Security of supply is crucial for the modern water industry. Pipelines of different lengths and nominal diameters must be automated with a multitude of valve types. AUMA actuators are widely used in steel structures for water supply systems for dam and gate management.
AUMA is well implemented in the water industry thanks to its wide product portfolio including multi-turn, part-turn and linear actuators. Combined with high corrosion protection, they guarantee a long service life and minimal maintenance.

ENERGY
Modular design for extreme demands
Power plants consist of systems such as water and steam circuits, flue gas purification, cooling towers, boiler systems and turbines. The control system regulates the processes within these systems that are visualized within the control room. Valve-mounted actuators control the flow of water and steam within the pipeline system.
AUMA actuators offer an interface for all automated valves adapted to power plant management systems. When used in power plants, AUMA actuators are characterized by superior tolerance with respect to supply voltage, vibration and temperature and can be adapted to any installation position.

OIL AND GAS
Defining boundary as standard
Oil and gas are key sources of energy for the industry. They are extracted, processed and distributed using the most sophisticated technologies and procedures. Due to the high potential hazard to humans and the environment, strict sets of regulations must be observed in the oil and gas sector.
AUMA is known in this industry internationally, meeting the growing market demands for supplier list approvals and explosion protection certifications.
AUMA actuators fully meet the requirements of the oil and gas industry with their superior SIL capability and usability in the most extreme climatic conditions.
