Bettis’ subsidiary Hytork International), Shafer Valve Operating Systems as well
as Dantorque Actuation. El-o-Matic’s main production facility is in Nelai

VA-CON’S Service & Technology
• VA-CON runs a workshop facility where we
assemble, test, calibrate, service and repair most
makes of Actuators and Quarter-turn Valves.
No item / product ordered, leaves our premises
without first being thoroughly checked and tested.
• In addition, we have on CD a Valve / Actuator
Torque Sizing Data Programme for most Quarter-
turn Valves manufactured in the world today.
Given the correct operating parameters, accurate
actuator sizing can be done at the click of a mouse.
• Allied to the Sizing Program above, we also have
an extensive Chemical Compatibility Program
which enables us to choose the correct body and
seal materials for valves in even the most difficult
process applications.
• In order to adequately service our customers, both
Emerson in Johannesburg and Va-con (Pty) Ltd in
Durban carry a substantial stock-holding of
commonly used products.

VA-CON New Product Development
In 2012 a Safety Lockout Device was designed
for the sugar Industry. A Design and invention
Patent was applied for and was successfully
granted in South Africa in July 2014. A PCT has
been lodged internationally.
The system’s design was reviewed by the
technical staff of the Illovo Sugar Group who
also sent same to an independent third party for
design appraisal. As a result of the design
confirmation and the physical testing
the Lockout System has been approved to be
marketed to the Illovo Group.
