Automated Yoke Style Closures

Tube Turns offers Double-Bolt Yoke Style Closures that are readily adaptable to a wide variety of operating aids ranging from single-lever chain and sprocket drives to the completely automated types, which can be operated by the touch of a button. This is a significant advantage in that it can be driven by a multiplicity of mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic devices to provide quick opening and closing for numerous applications.

In addition to this flexibility, our Automated Yoke Style Closures have other advantages:

Safety

Automation provides a tight seal, which prevents leakage and exposure of the operators to any medium that may be potentially hazardous to their health.

Improved Employee Morale

With the environmental concerns in the industry today, Automated Closures enable the operator to be stationed away from the reactor thus eliminating their exposure to hazardous mediums. As a result, the operator's health concerns are reduced significantly.

Economic Considerations

Depending on the size, the opening and closing cycle can take less than one minute. One man can operate the closure with the push of a button.

Maintenance

Since operation is simple, direct and positive, Automated Closures require little or no maintenance other than replacement of the O-ring and periodic inspection of yoke bolts and nuts for wear. The human element is virtually eliminated in that the automation mechanism of the closure performs all the work.
