Product catalog summary
Overview
The document discusses AUMA's SA multi-turn electric actuators designed for continuous underwater use. These actuators are suitable for various applications, including hydropower plants, water management, and civil engineering constructions.

Specifications
  • Sealing System: Features a sophisticated sealing system with double-sealed cable glands and stainless steel shafts to prevent water ingress.
  • Installation: Easy to install with only power supply and signal cable required. Actuator controls are installed outside the flooded area.
  • Maintenance: Virtually maintenance-free, with recommended inspections after several years. Environmentally friendly as they do not risk water contamination.
  • Design: Includes MWG electronic control unit for non-intrusive settings, solid stainless steel shaft, and various valve attachment options.
  • Enclosure Protection: Meets IP68-C15 standards, with options for higher water heads and explosion-proof versions.
  • Corrosion Protection: Certified with a two-layer powder coating and additional wet paint, suitable for various environmental conditions.
  • Explosion Protection: Complies with ATEX 2014/34/EU standards for explosive atmospheres.

Applications
  • Hydropower: Suitable for gate, butterfly, and globe valves in turbine control and other adjustments.
  • Water Management: Ideal for underground installations in flood-prone areas and available in explosion-proof versions for sewage environments.
  • Civil Engineering: Suitable for offshore installations, flood protection, and special underwater valve operations.

Technical Data
  • Torque: 10 Nm to 1,000 Nm
  • Output Speed: 4 rpm to 180 rpm at 50 Hz
  • Mains Voltage: Various options available for 50 Hz and 60 Hz with permissible variations.
  • Cable Length: Maximum 100 m between actuator and controls.
  • Temperature Range: Weatherproof from -30°C to +70°C; explosion-proof from -30°C to +40°C/+60°C.

Additional Features
  • AC Actuator Controls: Mounted separately, supporting various communication interfaces and enabling advanced diagnostics.
  • SAV Variable Speed Actuator: Offers adaptable operating speed and precise positioning.
  • Combination with Gearboxes: Approved for continuous underwater use, allowing for part-turn actuator operations.

Electric Actuators for continuous underwater use-3

In in run-of-the-river power plants (ROR), used to exploit the energetic potential of water courses with low gradient levels, variable speed electric actuators are deployed for starting, synchronisation and stopping of turbines installed completely under water. In screen cleaning systems, retaining twigs and other solid foreign objects from the turbine inlet, electric actuators for underwater use are installed for ecological and economic reasons. The variable speed version enables soft and gentle approaching of end positions. Applications in water management Where both supply and sewer pipes...

AC integral actuators controls AC actuator controls are mounted separately outside the water while cables connect them to the actuator. The state-of-the-art actuator controls assume communication control between DCS and actuator. Actuator controls are available with various interfaces to the DCS - allowing both parallel signal transmission and fieldbus communication. Supported are among others Profibus DP and Profinet, Modbus RTU and TCP/IP, DeviceNet, Foundation Fieldbus as well as HART and WirelessHART. Integral local controls also allow for direct actuator operation. Advanced diagnostic functions enable...
