Find the right FFC actuator in five questions

Answer what you know about your valve duty. FFC will narrow down to an EFX-D multi-turn or EFX-Q part-turn variant and pre-fill the inquiry form with your context.

Indicative triage — not validated sizing

This guided selector is a first-pass engineering triage that points you toward EFX-D or EFX-Q and pre-fills your inquiry. It is not a validated actuator sizing and not an automatic-selection or CPQ commitment. Final torque, duty cycle, control mode, protection, and site conditions must be confirmed by FFC engineering before any order.

Question 1 — Valve motion

What kind of valve are you automating?

Multi-turn (rising stem)Gate / globe / sluice / linear valves needing multiple rotationsPart-turn (quarter-turn)Ball / butterfly / damper valves needing 90° rotationNot sure yetShow me both families with side-by-side guidance

Question 2 — Torque

Approximate torque needed?

Light (≤ 100 N·m)Mid (100-1000 N·m)Heavy (1000-3000 N·m)Extra-heavy (≥ 3000 N·m)

Question 3 — Process medium

Which fluid does the valve handle?

Question 4 — Communication

Which control protocol does your DCS / PLC need?

Question 5 — Environment

Ingress protection or hazardous area requirement?

Answer at least one question above to see a recommendation. All answers are optional — the more you provide, the more precise the match.

Human review

Prefer an engineer to confirm?

FFC engineering confirms final torque, duty cycle, control mode, and site conditions before any order.
