PDC LLC, a Pittsburgh-based valve and actuator manufacturer, announced the launch of its line of electrohydraulic actuators to be marketed under its Magnus Force brand. PDC will utilize its growing representative and distribution network to penetrate targeted industries.
Established in 1970, PDC LLC supplies custom damper butterfly valves that have moist notably been used in the air management and water/wastewater industries. Most recently, PDC has begun diversifying its product portfolio, including the introduction of its Magnus Force brand of electric, pneumatic, and now electrohydraulic actuators as an alternative for the valve and actuation industry.
“Our new line of electrohydraulic actuators, which are manufactured by PDC LLC, offers the market a cost-effective solution with aggressive lead-times,” said Mark Santo, president of PDC LLC. “We are very pleased and excited to offer such a high quality electrohydraulic actuator to complement our other lines of valves and actuators. We are truly lucky to have the engineering staff and support departments that helped make this new actuator a reality.”
