The AGV5 is a single-stage, electronically-actuated, balanced poppet fuel valve designed to act as an actuation device for a supervisory (typically PLC-based) speed control system. The AGV5 can also be used as an air-fuel ratio control valve or a variable pressure regulator in a variety of applications. All valve control is derived from an industry-standard 4-20mA output signal generated by the governing controller. As a result, all governing logic, RPM and pressure setpoints, ramps, and timers are defined within the control system and are executed independently by the AGV5. Two models are available (standard and extra-large) to accommodate the fuel flow needs of engines up to 10,000 horsepower.
