How Profiler Level 2 Testing Identifies Air Leaks in Actuators — Before They Ruin Valve Performance In valve control systems, small pneumatic leaks can create major operational headaches. Loss of pressure, sluggish response, or erratic valve motion often trace back to hidden actuator leaks — and without the right tools, they’re nearly impossible to pinpoint. SofTek’s Profiler Level 2 Testing gives engineers and technicians the data clarity needed to identify, locate, and quantify air leaks...

SofTek Engineering’s Profiler Level 1 Testing is designed specifically for engineers and technicians who need precise, data-backed insight into valve performance.

Valve actuators are the backbone of countless systems—controlling the flow of fluids, gases, and even controlling critical processes in oil and gas, power, chemical, etc.  When they work, no one notices. But when they don’t? The consequences can range from poor performance to downright dangerous. The problem? Many engineers and operators don’t even realize their actuators are failing—until it’s too late. The Hidden Costs of Bad Actuators When a valve actuator starts to go bad, it doesn't...
