Pneumatic & Hydraulic Scotch Yoke Actuators

Product catalog summary
Overview: The HD Series Technical Brochure by Max-Air Technology Inc. details the Scotch Yoke Actuators designed for high torque applications in valve automation. It covers specifications, configurations, and features of the HD Series actuators, available in both pneumatic and hydraulic versions.
Specifications: The actuators come in symmetric (SHD) and canted (CHD) configurations, with torque outputs ranging from 13,367 to 2,738,990 in-lbs for double acting and 5,328 to 1,320,215 in-lbs for spring return models. They are engineered for quarter-turn valves such as ball, butterfly, plug, and damper valves.
Part Number Builder: A detailed part number builder is included, specifying actuator type, size, cylinder size, assembly type, and seal options. Temperature ranges for seals are provided, with options for standard, high, and low temperatures.
Features & Benefits: Key features include a modular design, symmetric and canted yoke options, slide block technology for extended service life, and hard chrome plated wear surfaces. The actuators are coated with a three-layer epoxy for corrosion resistance and can be equipped with manual overrides and custom cylinders.
Technical Data: Exploded views and materials of construction for both pneumatic and hydraulic actuators are provided. Materials include ductile iron, stainless steel, and carbon steel, designed for durability and performance.
Warranty: Max-Air Technology offers a warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship for 12 months from installation or 18 months from shipment, whichever comes first. The warranty excludes chemical or stress corrosion and unauthorized modifications.
Applications: The HD Series actuators are suitable for industrial applications requiring high torque and reliability. They are designed to match valve torque requirements closely and offer options for manual hand pump overrides and specialty coatings.
Torque Data: The document provides torque values for SHD and CHD series at different pressures (60 psi, 80 psi, 90 psi) for both double acting and spring return actuators. Key models include SHD16-U020000, SHD16-U025000, and CHD16-U020000.
Dimensions: Overall dimensions and flange connection dimensions are included, with measurements in inches. The document specifies the replacement of 'a' with 'C' for CHD Series or 'S' for SHD Series in model numbers.
Connection Standards: ISO & NAMUR connections are mentioned, with specific models listed under F16 and F25 - F40 categories.
Conclusion: The document serves as a comprehensive technical guide for selecting and understanding the torque capabilities and dimensions of Max-Air Technology's SHD and CHD series actuators, catering to various industrial applications.
Procedures and Standards: Thread types and dimensions for each actuator model are specified, ensuring compatibility with industry standards. The prefix 'a' in model numbers can be replaced with 'C' for the CHD Series or 'S' for the SHD Series.
Recommendations: Max-Air Technology suggests contacting local dealers for purchasing and support, with locations in Wentzville, Missouri; Jinan, China; and Milan, Italy. The document emphasizes the company's commitment to providing efficient automation solutions.
