Control valves

Control valves

(OP)
We have an issue at our refinery where it is extremely difficult to source replacement Ingersoll Rand air motors for some of our "old" control valves. Has anyone ever had the experience of using an electric motor in an air motor application. I know it is a bit wayward and there are many issues to compensate for.

On the other hand anyone knows where I can find a 15 year old air motor?

Nbucska,

The air motor was part of the original control scheme (as designed)
