GLOBE ARCHIMEDES COMPACT VANE MOTORS Your Global Force In Air Power

GLOBE AIR POWER ADVANTAGES GLOBE-ARCHIMEDES compact vane air motors are motors with incorporated reduction units. They offer a unique form of drive with advantages including: Simple and inexpensive variable speed and torque control with a flow control valve and/or pressure regulator. Indefinite stalling under load. Air motors will not overheat or burn out. Instantly reversible, operated with a simple control valve. Controllable over a wide speed range. Resistant to warm, dirty and damp conditions. Cool running caused by the expanding air. High reliability thanks to the low number of moving...

CHARACTERISTICS OF VANE AIR MOTORS The output power of a vane motor varies as a function of speed and torque. The relationship when the air supply is not externally regulated is shown in the graphs below. Throttling methods Inlet throttling, uni-directional motor. Outlet throttling, uni-directional motor. Inlet throttling, bi-directional motor. CONTROLLING AIR MOTORS SPEED REGULATION Controlling the speed and torque of an air motor is achieved by regulating the air supply; a relatively cheap and simple operation. Two methods are available, throttling and pressure regulation. Pressure...

When both the speed and the torque are to be controlled the best configuration is to use a pressure regulator in the line to the motor and a flow control valve on the outlet port. This way every point in the torque-speed graph can be set accurately. Directions of rotation The GLOBE-ARCHIMEDES compact vane air motors are available in uni-directional and in bi-directional models. When the uni-directional air motor is used, it is sufficient to use a 2/2 or a 3/2 valve. For the reversible motor you can use either a 5/3 or two 3/2 valve to gain directional control. Uni-directional motor with 3/2...

COUNTER CLOCKWISE GEAR RATIO All data are based on a working pressure of 6 bar. Maximum working pressure 7 bar Operating temperatures -20º to +80ºC Airline filtration ± 5 micron Lubrication oils with 32 mm2/s viscosity. 2M serie - 2 to 3 drops per minute for continuous operation. 4 to 6 drops per minute for intermittent operation. Note: exhaust is through common exhaust port and opposite rotation inlet port. Blocking or restricting these ports will reduce the performance of the motor.

COUNTER CLOCKWISE All data are based on a working pressure of 6 bar. Maximum working pressure 7 bar Operating temperatures -20º to +80ºC Airline filtration ± 5 micron Lubrication oils with 32 mm2/s viscosity. 5M serie - 3 to 4 drops per minute for continuous operation. 6 to 8 drops per minute for intermittent operation. Note: exhaust is through common exhaust port and opposite rotation inlet port. Blocking or restricting these ports will reduce the performance of the motor.
