Actuators take a new turn

The AMOT 47702X range of electric actuators has been developed for quarter-turn operating applications such as valves, dampers or similar uses and features an extended range of output torques and control options allowing effective tailoring to a wide variety of specific requirements. Being introduced at Norshipping on Stand A1-1-03, it is robust yet compact, lightweight and highly corrosion-resistant. A high-quality potentiometer is fitted as standard and the enclosure is weatherproof to IP67, NEMA 4 and 6. The actuator is available in a range of torques and is self-locking with minimum backlash in the transmission. Manual override is fitted as standard and there are adjustable mechanical end stops plus built-in thermal protection. The easy-mounting base is standard to ISO5211 and a detachable drive adaptor ensures easy valve matching. An anti-condensation heater is included for single phase ac versions. Four limit switches are standard, with two for operation and two spare ones on all but the lowest torque model.
