PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
 
Beck Group 14 linear control drives are 
engineered for precise, reliable operation of globe 
valves requiring up to 4,000 lbs of thrust.  The 
cool, stable operation of Beck’s control motors 
coupled with the powerful gear train provide the 
tight, responsive control required by modern 
control loops to keep operating costs low.  The 
motor can withstand occasional accidental stalls 
of up to four days without failure, and will resume 
instant response to control signals immediately 
upon removal of the condition.  Mechanical stops 
on the output shaft prevent over-travel.
 
An easy-to-turn, spoke-free Handwheel is 
incorporated into the Group 14 design to allow 
manual operation during installation or power 
outages.  The Handwheel can be used to open 
and close valves smoothly and easily under full 
load conditions.
 
The Beck Tight-Seater™ coupling is a part of 
the Group 14 linear drive.  This preloaded disk 
coupling is mounted on the drive output shaft 
and provides positive seating of the valve plug 
up to the rated thrust of the drive.  It eliminates 
high-pressure leakage, which can cause erosion 
of the valve seat.  A patented self-locking 
mechanism holds the drive output shaft in 
position when the motor is deenergized.
 
A Calibar index allows simple, single-point 
adjustment of the length of the stroke to match 
valve requirements.  When this adjustment is 
made, the position feedback signal, end-of-travel 
limit switches, and any auxiliary switches are all 
automatically adapted to the new stroke setting.
 
Valves may also be operated at their individual 
locations with a built-in electric Handswitch.

GROUP 14 MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
 
Beck’s ESR-4 Electronic Signal Receiver 
provides precise drive control from either 
conventional analog or computer-based control 
systems.
 
Beck’s CPS-2 Contactless Position Sensor 
provides accurate position feedback in demanding 
environmental conditions, with no contacting or 
wiping surfaces to wear or intermittently lose 
contact.
 
Beck Group 14 electronic control drives are 
designed with individual weatherproof enclosures 
to protect the main components.
 
Although the Group 14 drive is normally 
installed in the upright position, the drives may 
be installed in any orientation.  For installations 
where the piping will not support the weight of 
the control drive, holes are provided for mounting 
hardware.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
 
Beck Group 14 linear control drives are 
suitable for steam flow control, combustion gas 
control, and any other application that requires 
precise valve position control.  A drive may be 
applied to any globe, cage, or diaphragm valve 
with a rising stem that has a stroke within the 
capability of the drive.  An integral mounting yoke 
is part of each linear drive.
 
Beck Group 14 drives are available in stroke 
ranges from 5/16” to 4 1/2”, and in a variety of 
thrust and timing combinations.  See Table 1 for 
thrust and timing options.
