Product Overview
The Bürkert Type 2301 (Model 00262257, configuration A 55) is a pneumatically actuated globe control valve engineered for precise continuous regulation of neutral and slightly aggressive media in industrial process systems. As a member of Bürkert’s proven 2301 series, this valve combines a robust stainless steel or gunmetal valve body with a parabolic or equal-percentage control plug, delivering accurate flow characterization and tight shut-off across a broad range of process conditions. The valve operates on a force-balanced pneumatic piston or diaphragm actuator principle, where a pilot air signal modulates the plug position relative to the seat, enabling proportional flow control rather than simple on/off switching. This makes the 2301 A 55 an essential final control element in closed-loop process loops, working in conjunction with positioners, process controllers, and sensors to maintain flow, pressure, level, or temperature setpoints in demanding industrial environments.
