Slammed, banged, drenched and wrenched- there is only one valve operator that can take rugged sea duty:

LIMITORQUE

Fuel transfer in pounding seas demands rugged reliability—from the men that man our Navy's ships as well as from every piece of equipment aboard.

Proven rugged reliability, against shock, water, heat and cold, is the reason why the Navy chooses Limitorque valve controls to operate critical valves on most classes of U.S. Navy ships—from fleet oilers to LST's to nuclear aircraft carriers.

Explosion proof, weather proof and fully submersible, Limitorque operators automatically control valves on fuel, water and steam lines. Their precision operation protects valve components from wear and damage. They operate smoothly and instantly, by push button, by programmed automatic operation or on command from remote control stations.

In addition, they operate watertight doors, hatches, catapults and loading ramps —wherever controlled linear or radial movement is required.

If precise, unfailing automated valve control in a demanding environment is your need —make sure it's a Limitorque. Write for catalog SMB. Limitorque Corporation,
