Since the 1950's, Y&F has been the original source of robust precision hydraulic controls to the land-based gas turbine industry. We continue to manufacture a broad range of products for GE Energy (including Nuovo Pignone and Energy Products Europe), Solar Turbines, Pratt & Whitney and others around the world.
Building on our knowledge and experience in the turbine control, we have developed a line of electromechanical, electrohydrostatic and voice coil products to complement our hydraulic offerings. The company offers a complete product line to support:
- Actuation for hydraulic or electric control on OEM turbines
- Field upgrades to fully electronic turbine control
- Maintenance and overhaul of existing units
GAS FUEL VALVES Hydraulic, electromechanical (EMA) and electrohydrostatic (EHA) actuators for all size industrial turbine gas fuel control applications.
LIQUID FUEL VALVES Liquid fuel shutoff, bypass, and splitter control for all turbine sizes. Hydraulic, electromechanically actuated (EMA), electrohydrostatic (EHA) or electrically controlled varieties.
INLET/VARIABLE GUIDE VANE ACTUATION Hydraulically actuated servo controlled or electrohydrostatic inlet guide vane actuators for large turbines. Compact packaging and common designs for all turbine sizes available.
ELECTRONICS & ACCESSORIES Young & Franklin's own line of electronic devices and accessories to support their electromechanical and electrohydrostatic actuators, as well as state-of-the-art testing equipment for their hydraulic line. Also found here are general accessories for all turbines.
SERVO ACTUATORS Hydraulically or electronically controlled hydraulic servo actuators for small turbine inlet guide vane control, natural gas fuel control, and bleed valve control.
STEAM TURBINE CONTROL Young & Franklin's 50 years of hydraulic turbine control experience provides an easy transition to steam turbine controls.
PILOT OPERATED VALVES 3-way, 2-position pressure reducing or relief valve pilots for gas or liquid. Pilot valves for large control valves.
SOLENOID OPERATED VALVES Utilizing Young & Franklin's own line of solenoid valves.
FUEL RAILS/HYDRAULIC POWER UNITS/SKIDS Young & Franklin's low-noise stand-alone HPU's with integral sensory ports and pressure indicators complement their hydraulic line, while their fuel rails combine several valve actuator assemblies into one complete, compact package. Large skids for test cells and hydraulic pressure boosts add yet another dimension to Young & Franklin's capabilities.
Y&F Hydraulic Actuation
Time-tested linear and rotary actuator designs for all size liquid, gas, and steam turbines. Integrated electric trips available.
Y&F Electromechanical Actuation (EMA)
Light, compact integrated actuator designs for gas and liquid fuel valves, inlet guide vanes, process industries and hazardous/ high temperature locations.
Y&F Electrohydrostatic Actuation (EHA)
These actuators utilize the latest in electrohydrostatic technology (compact packaging combining the accuracy of electronic control with hydraulic actuation). Remote- controlled high-force, high-speed control.
Y&F Voice Coil Actuation
Y&F's direct-drive voice coil actuators integrate electronic control in a compact package for precise proportional or servo control. With Fieldbus capability. |
