Actuator Thrust Estimate

Seat-area thrust with safety factor.

Inputs

Valve duty

Max drop across closed valve.

Nominal seat bore.

Margin for friction and wear.

Result

Shutoff thrust (N)
1,178.1
Required (N)
1,767.1

Verify

Check before relying.

Shutoff force sizes the actuator.

  • Max dP across the closed valve
  • Seat bore, not pipe DN
  • Friction margin for age and dirt
This calculator is a first-pass screening tool. Verify nameplate data, wiring, module configuration, and calibrator readings before acting.
