Datasheet Pneumatic actuators Type A - DA Type A - SC Type A - SO • Compact design • Patented torque backlash-free transmission • • Optimized torque curve • Standardisedbetween connections Low friction seals Double acting actuator Single acting actuator (spring to close) Single acting actuator (spring to open) SOMAS actuators are designed for optimal function in control and on/off applications. The type A pneumatic actuators are specifically made to fit the SOMAS range of valves. They can also be used with most 90° rotary valves. The A-DA actuator is double acting and the A-SC and A-SO actuators are single acting spring return for fail safe operation. SOMAS offer a patented backlash-free transmission friction coupling (valid for D≤50) to optimize control performance and eliminate backlash. The actuators are designed to fit valves and accessories with the ISO 5211 and VDI/VDE 3845. SOMAS actuators have a torque curve corresponding to the torque demand for ball segment, butterfly, and ball valves. Low-friction seals allow for a low starting torque. Single or dual- cylinder units are used depending on the required torque and air supply pressure. Single acting actuators are optimised according to compact dimensions. The springs are supplied in a cartridge to reduce the risk of injury and to simplify maintenance. Adjustable travel stops are provided for both open and closed positions.

The standard actuator mounting is perpendicular to the pipeline as shown in position A (see Fig.1). Position B, C or D is available on request (specify when ordering). Always specify mounting position when ordering. The actuator is mounted in position A if the position is not stated. The linear motion from the piston in converted into a rotary motion via a linkage mechanism. The curve shows the output torque from the actuator as a function of the actuator shaft angle (see Fig.2). Maximum torque is achieved in the closed position which corresponds to the demand of ball segment valves, ball valves...
