Bernard Controls has provided a hundred 24 VDC quarter-turn electric actuators, EZ15 models with LOGIC integrated control, to AG der Dillinger Hüttenwerke.
Indeed, following local fire workers’ regulatory inspection, there was a need to upgrade the hydraulic system of the plant. Amongst the requirements, two main points were decisive: First, the motor had to run with a low starting current to match emergency power supply conditions. Then, it was necessary to receive signaling coming from the actuator.
Bernard Controls’ teams offered to send a sample of EZ15 actuator for tests directly on site. Current rate proved satisfactory and matched perfectly the customer’s expectations. In case of power outage, valves will keep on running correctly due to battery back-up. The LOGIC integrated control satisfies to the second request. This cost and time saving solution guarantees easier commissioning and simplified settings thanks to the local display, integrated local commands.
