Advantage Actuator for valve actuation.
The Advantage actuator platform is the core pneumatic actuation option for automated Pure-Flo diaphragm valves. Triplex supports this selection by looking at the actual process: product, cleaning method, orientation, pressure, temperature, automation expectations, and documentation requirements.
Use this page to qualify the valve package, not just identify a part number.
ITT diaphragm valve selection is about the complete assembly. The body, topworks, diaphragm, actuation, controls, and documentation all have to support the way the process actually runs.
Where it fits
Use this topworks or actuator option when the valve package has to match operator access, automation needs, washdown exposure, service expectations, or control-system requirements.
What to confirm
Valve size, diaphragm material, process pressure, available air pressure, fail position, cycle frequency, environment, and feedback requirements should be verified before final selection.
How Triplex helps
Triplex helps keep the actuator conversation tied to the complete valve package so the hardware works in the plant, not just on a datasheet.
What Triplex will want to know.
Good valve recommendations come from process context. A few details up front prevent a lot of expensive back-and-forth later.
| Selection point | Why it matters | Triplex note |
|---|---|---|
| Manual or automated operation | Manual bonnets, pneumatic actuators, and stainless actuator options solve different plant realities. | Confirm who operates the valve and how often it cycles. |
| Fail position and force | Actuator sizing depends on valve size, diaphragm, process pressure, and fail-open/fail-closed expectations. | Do not size the actuator from the actuator name alone. |
| Controls and environment | Feedback, solenoids, washdown exposure, and service access can determine the best topworks package. | Triplex can help coordinate actuator, switch package, and documentation needs. |
