20100163765PNEUMATIC VALVE ACTUATOR HAVING INTEGRAL STATUS INDICATION - A pneumatic valve actuator having integral status indication includes an actuator housing with a recessed bore and a visual indicator coupled to a piston within a cylinder. An actuating pressure chamber is located also within the cylinder. The piston reciprocates in the cylinder in response to fluid pressure build-up in the actuating pressure chamber, and the visual indicator reciprocates within the bore. The visual indicator coupled to the piston can be in a retracted configuration when actuating pressure is not present in the pressure chamber and can be in an extended configuration when actuating pressure is presented in the pressure chamber. The visual indicator, which can have a portion that extends outside the bore colored to provide an indication of the operating state of the valve.07-01-2010
