Product catalog summary

Overview

The Automax Pneumatic Actuator Series is designed using advanced technology and new materials to provide reliable and efficient valve actuation. The series includes both double acting (DE) and single acting spring return (SE) types, with sizes ranging from 032 to 400 and spring numbers from 5 to 12 (SE version only).

Order Code and Specifications

  • Order Code Format: PV DE 083 - 12
  • Number of Springs: 5 to 12 (only for SE version)
  • Sizes Available: 032 to 400
  • Operation Types: Double Acting (DE), Single Acting Spring Return (SE)
  • Pilot Valve: PV

Key Features

  • Compliance with international standards: ISO 5211, DIN 3337, VD/VDE 3845, and NAMUR.
  • Compact, modern design with comprehensive specifications for easy selection.
  • High-quality bearings on all acting surfaces ensure low friction, long cycle life, and silent operation.
  • Two independent stroke adjusting devices allow precise ±5° adjustment for open or close positions.
  • Uniform external structure for both double and single acting types facilitates accessory installation.
  • NAMUR standard multifunction position indicator provides clear visual feedback.
  • Pre-compressed load springs enhance safety during mounting and disassembly.
  • Pistons and end caps are made from die-cast aluminum, offering high strength and lightweight construction.
  • Seal materials are available for both high and low temperature applications.
  • Options for multi-travel rotations (120°, 135°, 180°) and three-position actuators.
  • Solenoid valves can be mounted easily without additional connecting plates.

Dimensions and Mechanical Data

The document includes detailed dimensional data for various actuator sizes, ensuring compatibility with standard valve interfaces. Output torque charts for spring return actuators are provided, illustrating torque capabilities across different sizes and spring configurations. Torque diagrams help in understanding actuator performance under load.

Parts and Materials

Components such as pistons and end caps are constructed from die-cast aluminum for durability and weight reduction. High-quality bearings and various seal materials are used to optimize performance and environmental resistance.

Operating Principle and Functionality

The actuator operates by converting pneumatic pressure into rotary motion to control valve positions. Double acting types use air pressure for both opening and closing, while single acting types use air pressure to open and springs to return the actuator to the closed position. Stroke adjustments and position indicators enhance control precision.

Selection Guidelines

Guidance is provided for selecting appropriate actuator types based on application requirements, including torque needs, operation type, and environmental conditions. Sample selection examples for single acting actuators illustrate the decision process.

Performance Parameters

  • Air Consumption: Data on air volume requirements for actuator operation.
  • Weight: Actuator weights vary by size and configuration, important for installation considerations.
  • Operating Conditions: Suitable temperature ranges and environmental factors are addressed.

Special Configurations

The series includes three-position actuators and multi-travel rotation options to meet diverse control needs.

Common Problems and Solutions

The document outlines typical issues encountered during actuator operation and provides troubleshooting advice to ensure reliable performance and maintenance.
