RMVA, and now RTVA

Tele flex designs solutions for Remote \/aive Operation

Engineering solutions aren't born.

They're carefully designed. Consider

RMVA, the Remote Mechanical Valve

Actuator System from Teleflex, Inc.

Naval Technologies Division.

The RMVA System serves as the industry standard for quality and performance in remote valve opera- tion, and has been installed on vir- tually every ship class in the U.S. Navy.

Teleflex engineers solve problems using first-hand knowledge gained through years of experience on

Naval vessels.

Teleflex has now found the solution to the problems long associated with

Trip Valve Operators: the Remote Trip

Valve Actuator System, or RTVA.

The RTVA System is designed first for survivability, as it eliminates shock- induced valve closures associated with the current cable/pulley systems.

The RTVA System is cost effective.

It is completely sealed, permanently lubricated and corrosion resistant.

It's maintenance-free operation saves valuable manpower—allowing the ships' force to work on more critical tasks.

Design simplicity assures ease of in- stallation with minimal labor require- ments. Installation may be accom- plished during overhaul, repair, or new construction.
