Electric Actuator Retrofit

[mikester]

Anyone here come across an electro-mechanical linear actuator to convert a manual control valve to two way electric control?

Ive seen pneumatic ones for transport trucks but I dont have air on my tractor. Im thinking either a solenoid or linear actuator to control the valve.

Depending on the valve model you might be able to convert to solenoid operated. I.e. was there a solenoid option from the manufacturer?

Linear actuator would require ability to return to home condition or normal spring position with reasonable accuracy. If not the valve will provide the desired operation
