Product catalog summary
Overview
Electric actuators and valve gearboxes are essential for automating valve operations on naval vessels. These devices are crucial for controlling fluid flow in various systems such as drainage, fire extinguishing, fuel, and ballast systems. AUMA, a leading manufacturer, provides a range of actuators designed to meet the rigorous demands of military applications.

Specifications
  • Actuator Types: Part-turn actuators (SGM 07.1) for butterfly and ball valves, multi-turn actuators (SVM 07.1) for gate valves, and part-turn gearboxes (GHE 07.1) for manual operations.
  • Materials: Housing made of antimagnetic and saltwater-proof bronze, with stainless steel screws for sea water resistance.
  • Standards: Vibration and shock resistance according to MIL-STD-167-1 and MIL-S-901D, EMC standards MIL-STD-461E, and VG 95373.
  • Environmental Conditions: Operable in temperatures from -25°C to +70°C, with IP 68-8 enclosure protection.

Design and Features
  • Modular Design: Facilitates easy assembly, commissioning, and maintenance.
  • Integral Controls: Include power electronics and processor board for operation and feedback, with automatic shut-off for end position, overheating, or torque overload.
  • Local Controls: Allow on-site operation with options for remote mounting.
  • Motor and Gearing: Specially developed motor with variable speeds and patented ellipto-centric gearing for compact design and high efficiency.

Technical Data
  • Torque and Speed: Adjustable in 8 stages for both part-turn and multi-turn actuators.
  • Voltage Supply: 230 V or 115 V AC current.
  • Lifetime: Part-turn actuators and gearboxes have a lifetime of 20,000 cycles, while gearboxes have 1,000 cycles.

Applications and References
AUMA actuators have been deployed in various naval projects worldwide, including frigates, submarines, and corvettes across countries like Germany, Australia, and Turkey. The document lists specific projects with the number of actuators and gearboxes supplied.

Conclusion
AUMA's electric actuators and gearboxes are designed to meet the stringent requirements of naval applications, offering reliability, compact design, and compliance with military standards.

2 | Electric actuators [1] Part-turn actuator SGM 07.1 [2] Valve actuator (multi-turn actuator) SVM 07.1 [3] Part-turn gearbox GHE 07.1 Electric actuators are used wherever fluids flowing a pipeline have to be controlled by means of a valve. The actuators are mounted to the valves via a standardised flange and can be activated from a central control room. Therefore they help to conetralise and automate the processes, enabling new projects to be planned with less crew members required to complete the tasks. On naval vessels, electric actuators are used for: ¡ Drainage and leakage water systems...

“Military application”, a challenge | 3 Typically, a naval vessel has to fulfill higher requirements regarding the components used, going far beyond the needs of commercial applications. Compact design Naval vessels are characterised by shipboard space constraints. With a patented gearbox technology and a special motor design, AUMA can build small actuators with a high power-to-weight ratio. Vibration and shock resistance AUMA marine actuators and valve gearboxes are designed for qualification to vibration and shock for surface vessels and submarines. The following standards apply: ¡ Vibration...

This special motor only requires one-third of the height of an equivalent, conventional motor. The motor has variable speeds. Together with the motor electronics, this allows gentle starting and deceleration operations, preserving the valve.
