Rotary Actuators Series VRS / VRA - Catalogue PDE2655TCUK

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document outlines the specifications and technical data for Parker Hannifin's Series VRS/VRA rotary actuators, which are used in industrial applications such as aerospace, climate control, and process control. These actuators convert linear motion into rotary motion using a rack and pinion mechanism.
Specifications: The actuators come in sizes from 32mm to 125mm with rotation angles of 96°, 186°, and 366°. They are made from anodised aluminium alloy for durability and corrosion resistance and can operate with dry, lubricated, or non-lubricated air.
Design Features: Notable design features include a floating piston, nitrile seals, adjustable cushions, and magnetic piston versions compatible with P8S sensors. The VRA version is designed for corrosive environments with stainless steel components.
Technical Data: Detailed tables provide information on torque, load capacities, cushion angles, and dimensions for each bore size. Theoretical torque values are listed for pressures from 2 to 10 bar, with a maximum efficiency of 80% due to functional losses.
Material Specifications: Materials include XC40 steel for the rack, anodised aluminium for the body, and polyurethane for the seals. The VRA version uses stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance.
Maintenance: After 2 million shifts, the cylinder should be dismantled and seals replaced. Proper lubrication with ESSO GP GREASE or equivalent is recommended during assembly.
Sensors: Actuators can be fitted with electronic or reed sensors. Electronic sensors offer high switching frequency and long service life, while reed sensors provide reliable function and easy installation.
Ordering Information: Detailed ordering codes are provided for different configurations, including magnetic versions, shaft types, and endplate options.
Accessories: Various cables and connectors are available, including moulded 8mm snap-in contacts.
Cable and Connector Specifications: The document details cables and connectors, including IP67 enclosure, conductor size of 3x0.25 mm², and sheath materials of PVC/PUR. Cables are available in lengths from 0.2 m to 10 m.
Types of Cables: Includes cables with straight contacts, straight and angled connectors, and cables for sensors with snap-in or screw connectors.
Connectors: M8 and M12 screw connectors are available, meeting protection class IP65.
Valvetronic 110 Connection Block: Used for collecting signals from sensors and connecting them to control systems, featuring ten 8 mm snap-in circular connectors and supporting a voltage of 24 VDC.
Mechanical and Electrical Data: The enclosure is rated IP67, suitable for temperatures from -20°C to +70°C, and made from durable materials like PA 6,6 VD and epoxy.
Ordering Information: Includes order codes and weights for various products like connection blocks, blanking plugs, and labels.
Contact Information: Lists contact details for Parker Hannifin Corporation's offices worldwide.
