The JBT Lifter from VSI: Your Solution for Slow Nitrogen Pumping
JBT Lifters are cutting edge. Their ability to adapt almost any rotary actuator to a linear valve is a unique function of the product. In addition, they convert pneumatic actuation to electric, helping you hit standards for lower emissions.
How Does the JBT Lifter Improve Nitrogen Pumping Operations?
The JBT Lifter’s unique design can help streamline operations on nitrogen pump trucks, helping to reduce the amount of equipment needed and speed up processes. nitrogen pump trucks are typically outfitted with multi-turn actuators which can take up to two minutes per revolution and require 5 to 10 revolutions to move a control valve between full open and full close. JBT’s Rotary to Linear Adaptor obliterates that timing, cutting it down to an astonishing 15 seconds which saves time while providing accurate control.
The benefits of using the JBT Lifter don’t end there. As a standard quarter-turn unit rather than a specialized piece of equipment, the JBT Lifter is compatible with most control protocols whether they are needle, globe, or ball valves, eliminating the need to re-pipe trucks. In addition, the JBT Lifter can be configured in multiple ways and provides multiple hookups. Depending on the layout of a truck, one actuator can be used for up to three applications, reducing the number of actuators and spares needed.
It's clear the JBT Lifter can save you time and reduce the amount of equipment needed on a nitrogen pump truck, it is also important to know the JBT Lifter requires less maintenance. On a typical nitrogen pump truck, the actuators need to be adjusted before and after every job, but that is eliminated with this innovative piece of equipment. The JBT Lifter automatically senses the location of the seat stop removing the need for adjustments.
The JBT Lifter’s high-pressure capacity is another feature which makes this an adaptable piece of equipment. The Lifter can handle pressures up to 10,000 psi. With the maximum pressure for nitrogen pump trucks ranging from 8-9,000 psi, the lifter is universally applicable.
