KEH Series Electro Hydraulic Actuators

Product catalog summary
General Description: The KEH series by Quifer Actuators is designed for quarter-turn automation valves, offering a compact and safe solution with a closed hydraulic loop driven by a motor and hydraulic pump. These actuators automatically move to a safe position in case of power failure and are suitable for hazardous areas (Zone 1, 2, 21, and 22). They are customizable and can handle torques up to 50,000 Nm.
Functions: The actuators operate electrically with a motor and hydraulic pump to maintain an open position. In case of power failure, the actuator moves to a safe position using a spring mechanism.
Specifications: The KEH/KEXH actuators use a rack and pinion system, are available in sizes KPM 030 to KPM 500, and include a hydraulic unit with solenoid valves and pressure switches. The electric unit is explosion-proof and allows local control.
Technical Data: The actuators are single-acting, suitable for various hazardous zones, and use hydraulic oil with ISO viscosity grade 15-18. They feature an anodized aluminum body, nitrile seals, and IP 66 protection.
Options: Available options include low/high temperature applications, local control panels, manual gearbox, fast closing time, and special coatings for corrosive environments.
Actuator Selection: The selection process involves choosing the appropriate actuator based on power supply, safety features, and local control options.
Torque and Operating Time: Torque values range from 90 Nm to 50,000 Nm, with operating times varying by actuator size. A 25% safety factor is recommended for sizing.
Electric and Hydraulic Data: The gear pump is pre-adjusted at 8 bar, with a temperature range of -20°C to +85°C. The electric unit supports various power supplies, including 24V DC and 380V AC.
Dimensions: Detailed dimensions are provided for both standard and explosion-proof versions, with and without manual override.

KEH Series Electro Hydraulic Actuators-3

KEH Series General Description Quifer Actuators KEH series go a step forward to the quarter turn Automation valves market. These electro hydraulic actuators are a safety and compact solution due to their new housing design where there is no need of tubing and hydraulic connections. These actuators consist in a closed hydraulic loop driven by a motor and hydraulic pump that throught electric and hydraulic devices guide the oil to the desired position. In case of fail of the power supply the actuator will move automatically to the safe position. The KEH series is defined by a spring return pneumatic...

KEH Series Electro Hydraulic Actuators-4

Functions The basic function of the electro hydraulic fail safe actuators is to run the actuator electrically with a motor and hydraulic pump system to keep it in open position. In case of failure of the power supply, the actuator automatically will go to the safe position. Below detailed the 2 actions of the actuator: Power Supply Action • Actuator is energized with electric supply and starts the motor that makes run the hydraulic pump. • The oil is pumped to the actuator. • When actuator arrives to the operation position, the motor stops and the actuator keeps the position. Spring (FailSafe)...
