This system eliminates the need for non-integrated accessories, reducing installation and commissioning time by up to 20% and allowing for flexible retrofitting in existing pipe runs.

Features and Specifications:

Corrosion protection validated by a 1000-hour accelerated salt spray test per ASTM B117.
Torque range from 40 Nm to 1600 Nm, available in spring-return or double-acting configurations.
Six different spring torques provided by three nested end cap springs.
ISO 5211 compliant valve mounting options for cost-effective and versatile direct mounting.

Switch and Valve Options:

Various switch cartridge types including mechanical, gold plated, 2-wire and 3-wire proximity options.
Non-intrusive switch setting allows adjustments without removing the cover, maintaining explosion-proof integrity.
Pilot valve cartridges operable with 24V DC, 115V AC, or 230V AC.

Control and Safety Features:

Pneumatic amplifier integrated in the control module.
Fail in Last Position (FILP) amplifier for double-acting actuators to maintain position during power or signal failure.
Manual control override with a 'Push & Lock' option for local manual operation.
Speed control throttles for adjusting opening and closing stroke speeds.
Hazardous area approvals including FM, CSA, ATEX, and IECEx for use in various zones and divisions.

Design and Installation Benefits:

Quick start-up due to simplified design.
Easy conversion from double-acting to spring-return configuration with an Allen key.
Versatile installation with adjustable dual travel stops.
Plug and play capability reduces the need for additional mounting brackets, cabling, and tubing.

Safety and Reliability:

Encapsulated spring design enhances field safety.
Explosion-proof design with integrated controls and feedback.
Hard anodized actuator body and protective finish for corrosion resistance.
Extended service life with Nylatron® guide band and PTFE piston guide bands.
