GateMaster™ Hydraulic Actuator

Product Family No. H88451 and H88454 (Standard
H2S Service), H88452 and H88455 (Arctic Service)

DESCRIPTION/APPLICATION:
The Gatemaster Hydraulic Actuator is used to open and close a re-
verse-acting or direct-acting gate valve by means of hydraulic pres-
sure applied to a closed cylinder. The actuator is fail-safe as it
incorporates a coil spring to assist the return of the piston upon the
loss of hydraulic control pressure. Fail-safe return occurs indepen-
dently of valve pressurization.
The Gatemaster Actuator, Baker Oil Tools' next generation hydrau-
lic actuator, is an enhancement to its line of field-proven hydraulic
actuators. We are able to offer this actuator for applications where
the patented quick connection and other features of our standard
actuator line are not required. The actuator and bonnet assembly do
not incorporate the slotted connection between the actuator shaft
and bonnet stem. The retrievable packing cartridge assembly and
the bolted bonnet ring have been eliminated. The actuator is easily
adapted for use with the Baker Oil Tools Self-Contained or Line
Pressure Operated Safety Systems.

GateMaster™ Hydraulic Actuator

Product Family No. H88451 and H88454 (Standard H 2S Service), H88452 and
H88455 (Arctic Service)

FEATURES/BENEFITS:
 Housing - single piece universal housing provides adaptation to valve sizes 2” (50.8 mm) through 4”
(101.6 mm) and with working pressures of 5,000 psi (345 bars) and below
 Fail-safe - the properly sized coil spring provides a reliable return stroke in the absence of flowline
pressure
 Visual indication - the shaft of the Gatemaster Actuator extends from the top of the housing providing
a quick visual indication of the valve position
 Fire seal - the bonnet assembly of the Gatemaster Actuator incorporates the same metal back-seat
design as our standard product line and will afford protection against packing blowouts in the event of
a fire
 Bonnet stem seals - the bonnet stem seal is a non-elastomeric design that eliminates the problems
associated withproduced fluids contacting elastomeric seals
 Drift adjustment - the permanent, external drift adjustment is easily accessed when assembling the
actuator and bonnet on a gate valve, eliminating the requirement to disassemble the actuator to set
the valve drift
 Accessories - The GateMaster is designed to accept a wide range of standard accessories such as
electric limit switches, clear stem protectors, heat sensitive lock out caps, and manual openers
