Actuator Edition 2010

Robust rack and pinion design, ATEX-compliant, versatile

Data sheet

Product information

Der pneumatische Antrieb Edition 2010 from Air Torque is the perfect solution for automating industrial valves. With its robust rack-and-pinion design, ATEX approval and optimised surface coating it offers maximum reliability for chemical, energy and water technology.
 

Features and advantages

  • Robust design: rack-and-pinion drive for precise rotary movement
  • Corrosion-resistant: ALODUR anodised body, cover with polyester coating
  • ATEX compliant: suitable for potentially explosive areas
  • Durable: reduced surface roughness for lower friction and longer seal life
  • Flexible: for butterfly valves and ball valves, mountable directly or with a console

Areas of application

  • Automation of butterfly valves and ball valves
  • Outdoor installation and corrosive environments
  • Low-temperature applications down to -55 °C in the LLT version
  • Shipbuilding with DET NORSKE approval

Advantages

  • ALODUR anodising inside and out – wear-resistant, low friction
  • Standard -40 to +80 °C, HT version up to +150 °C, LLT version down to -55 °C
  • Marine approval DET NORSKE no. P-12465
  • ATEX version available

Selection and installation

The ALODUR anodising is applied inside and out – it lowers the friction in the cylinder and extends the service life of the seals. For temperatures outside -40 to +80 °C the HT or LLT version should be chosen.
