4 Problem Description Motorized control valve is intended to regulate any kinds of liquids, steam, gas or vacuum streams. It can be used in energy industry, chemical industry,medicine, food industry etc. Motorized control valve is intended to regulate any kinds of liquids, steam, gas or vacuum streams. It can be used in energy industry, chemical industry,medicine, food industry etc. Generally, a control valve comprises three primary components: a valve, (such as a ball valve,) a DC motor with multi-stage reducer and a control circuit (see control valves manufactured by companies such as Siemens, Johnson Controls, Sauter, Danfoss, Belimo, Joventa). Generally, a control valve comprises three primary components: a valve, (such as a ball valve,) a DC motor with multi-stage reducer and a control circuit (see control valves manufactured by companies such as Siemens, Johnson Controls, Sauter, Danfoss, Belimo, Joventa). Current motorized control valves have significant limitation: Current motorized control valves have significant limitation: Large working time (duration of closed-open mode ranges from 30 to 140 seconds ), Large working time (duration of closed-open mode ranges from 30 to 140 seconds ), Low accuracy - resolution (1-5 angular degrees); Low accuracy - resolution (1-5 angular degrees); High response time (1-2 seconds); High response time (1-2 seconds); High cost ( $ 400 – for a valve with resolution 1-5 ang. degrees; $1000 for a valve with ang. degree resolution). High cost ( $ 400 – for a valve with resolution 1-5 ang. degrees; $1000 for a valve with ang. degree resolution).
