Stay out of the redzone

Revolutionizing the redzone, our remotely controlled actuated valve packages keep personnel out of hazardous environments while improving operational efficiency. Inviting you to explore a new era of valve control in the energy industry that challenges conventional boundaries and embraces optimal performance.

what we do

Redzone Solutions Electric Actuated Valve System puts precise valve control at your fingertips through an intuitive touchscreen interface.

  • Tailored for Hydraulic Fracturing: Designed specifically for the hydraulic fracturing industry to ensure safe and efficient valve operation in high-pressure zones.

  • Targeted Application: Focused on actuator implementation on fluid end suction valves, which are located in close proximity to high-pressure discharge iron and the mono-line.

  • Enhanced Safety: Eliminates manual valve operation of frac pump suction valves located in the Hotzone/Redzone.

  • Efficiency: The HMI touchscreen can be conveniently installed in the data van, enabling streamlined and centralized valve operations.    

why we do it

  • Safety: Keep workers out of the Redzone, where common failures can be fatal due to exposure to extreme pressures and equipment failures, including:

o   High-pressure leaks

o   Iron parting

o   Fluid end packing failures

o   All Energized by pressures up to 100 MPa (14,500 psi)

  • Efficiency: Improve operational efficiency with a centralized touchscreen interface for streamlined valve operations.

  • Operator Convenience: HMI touchscreen can be positioned beside the pump operator or supervisor for immediate valve control.

  • Equipment Protection: Prevent sanded-off suction hoses by quickly closing suction valves when pumps go down..

  • Faster Rate Recovery: Instantly open suction valves to bring additional pumps online and get rate faster.

Product specifications & services

  • Manual override:  6” override wheel

Butterfly Valves:

  • Designed for 4” & 5” butterfly valves, but adaptable to most sizes

Advantages Over Air-Actuated Systems

  • Consistent Torque Output: Electric actuators maintain reliable torque, unlike air actuators which suffer losses from condensation buildup and pressure drops in long airline runs.

  • Cold Weather Reliability: No risk of freezing—electric systems eliminate condensation-related issues and airflow limitations that reduce performance in cold environments.

  • Smaller Footprint: Requires less space by eliminating the need for air manifolds and compressors.

  • Faster Rig-In: Simplified setup with fewer components and no air lines reduces rig-in time.

  • Multi-Actuator Control: Easily control multiple actuators simultaneously from a single touchscreen interface.

PCL + HMI:

  • Output Control: Ability to control 112 actuators or other devices.

  • Touch Screen: HMI (Human Machine Interface) featured in a 22” or 16” screen.

  • Wiring: All wiring to be fully insulated and weatherproof 11mm cable.

  • Additional Features: Additional heaters, indicator lights, or other accessories can be programmed as requested.
