DelTorq Rack & Pinion Actuators
Features and Benefits
|
|
 |
|
1. Two independent external travel stops permit easy
and precise adjustment of +/- 5° in both directions. Adjustment screws do
not penetrate the pressurized body and eliminates possible leakage. |
| 2. Modular pre-loaded spring cartridges
for safe, efficient use of actuator. Convert a double acting actuator to a
spring return actuator by simply removing the end caps and adding from 2-6
spring cartridges each side to accomplish the desired torque. Spring
cartridges have corrosion resistant springs. |
| 3. Hard anodized extruded
aluminum body with honed internal surface for strength and lower
coefficient of friction. This ensures extended service life and low
maintenance down-times. The air passes are machined internally to
avoid external tubing. The external shape is contoured and rounded to
avoid buildup of contaminants. |
|
4. Compact modular design with same body and end caps for double
acting and spring return design. Combined with an adapter sleeve design to
offer the most efficient use of inventory. |
|
5. Dual rack and pinion design for compact construction, high cycle
life, symmetrical mounting position, fast and efficient operation and
offers both spring-to-open and spring-to-close option. Reverse
rotation can be accomplished in the field by simply inverting the pistons. |
|
6. Wide actuator base design option can be adapted to mount to valve
designs requiring wider than ISO 5211 drilling. This feature coupled with
the unique shaft design can be customized to fit your specific
requirements. |
|
7. Top quality bearings and seals for low friction, high cycle life,
to ensure trouble free operation. |
|
8. Internal and external stainless steel fasteners and specially
coated springs provide corrosion resistance in a variety of environments
and applications. |
|
9. The unique manufacturing technique of the shaft combines a high
strength alloy steel shaft, having precision machined gear teeth with a
square precision drive. The guide bar in the piston provides an
inherent blow out proof shaft design. |
|
10. Unique position indicator can be indexed to show alternate
position. Top of actuator shaft has a Namur slot to drive all popular
sensors and Positioners. |
|
11. The design of the stop adjustment cam permits the actuator to be
locked out in the full open or full closed position before performing
mechanical maintenance work. A special loc out enclosure is also available
as an option to prevent unwanted operation. |
|
12. Standard end caps are rounded with no crevices to accumulate
contamination or corrosive chemicals. The external and internal
surface is coated with an epoxy based powder to provide resistance to
atmospheric corrosion and general resistance to mild chemicals. |
|
13. Manufactured in full compliance with the latest requirements of ISO
5211 and EN12116. Provisions for mounting solenoid valves and
accessories comply with Namur VDI/VDE3845. |
