NEW IP68 marine-grade option for wet and salty environments H-Track Electro-Hydraulic Linear Actuator Featuring Power Density and Shock Load Resistance

H-Track – A Compact Hybrid of Superior Performance H-Track electro-hydraulic actuators provide the high load performance of hydraulics without the expansive space requirements nor the prohibitive cost of full-sized, fluid-based systems. More Power in Less Space H-Track electro-hydraulic actuators feature the smallest mounting envelope in their class with a patented valve and reservoir design that provides significant space savings compared to competitive models. H-Track is a robust linear actuator providing force up to 4800 lbf (21350 N) and travel speeds near 4 in (100 mm) per second. With stroke...

Completely Self-Contained The motor, pump and valves are contained in one mini power pack mounted directly to the combined cylinder/fluid tank. This means that the inner workings are completely sealed from the outside, allowing this unique arrangement to minimize parts and improve performance. Unlike hydraulic cylinders, there is no need for external hoses, valves, reservoirs or hydraulic connectors that can break or leak. The operation is as simple as with a traditional electric actuator - just turn the supply voltage on to move and change polarity to reverse direction. If necessary, the actuator...

Electro-Hydraulic Advantages The best features from the electric and hydraulic actuator worlds have been chosen to power the H-Track linear actuator, giving it a unique set of capabilities that allow it to be used in applications that otherwise might be too difficult for other solutions to take on. Compact Design H-Track actuators have a mounting length that is shorter than any other electromechanical actuator on the market. It can fit into applications with a pin-to-pin length as small as 4.73 in (120 mm) plus its stroke, and still provide up to 3200 lbf (14234 N) of force. Superb Load-Holding...

Hydraulics Isolated from the Atmosphere The fluid reservoir is vented and isolated from the atmosphere with a flexible lid, allowing actuator and pump operation in any orientation without entraining or cavitation. Maintenance-Free H-Track actuators require no lubrication, hydraulic fluid fillup, or any other type of maintenance or adjustments for their entire lifecycle. Contamination-Free The H-Track’s pump is conditioned and flushed prior to vacuum-filling the completed actuator assembly with degassed hydraulic fluid. This ensures you enjoy contaminant-free performance for the life of the actuator....

Built to Perform H-Track is built from the outside in to excel in situations where many other actuators are forced to bow out. The unique electro-hydraulic design combines the best features from two distinct systems and opens up new application possibilities for linear actuators. 5 MORE POWER IN LESS SPACE H-Track is one of the strongest actuators for its size without compromising life expectancy or the ability to withstand the elements. 1 Compact and strong power pack unit, containing pump, valves and motor Fluid tank integrated into the cover tube Solid small-diameter, buckling-resistant piston...

MADE FOR TOUGH CONDITIONS H-Track is designed and tested to operate under the harshest conditions without failure or the need for maintenance. 7 10 Standard IP69K/IP67 protection class and tested for 2000 hours salt spray 10 Large operating temperature range 13 IP68 and tested for 650 hours under water (marine-grade option) 11 High shock load and vibration resistance 14 Solid 316 stainless steel piston 12 Anodized aluminum-alloy housing

Built for the Toughest Applications With a self-contained electro-hydraulic system, H-Track actuators meet the growing demand for power-dense performance used in a variety of industrial, agricultural and marine applications. Designed to Withstand Life on the Fields With agricultural sprayers becoming larger and boom lengths reaching up to 177 ft (54 m), strain on the actuators has increased exponentially. Actuators are used to fold the long sprayer booms from an extended position to a stowed position for transport. The folding and unfolding of these booms apply very high loads on the actuators....

Ideal for Demanding Outdoor Applications Where the often harsh outdoor environment creates conditions that can be fatal for most actuators, the H-Track thrives. A snow plow battling icy roads and striking a stationary, concrete object is an example that would quickly destroy most linear actuators. The H-Track’s unique valve and reservoir design gives it the ability to cushion these blows and continue operating without issue. The optional ability to operate in temperatures as low as -40°F (-40°C) makes it a perfect fit for even the coldest climates. Mower deck lifts are typically where electric...

H-Track's marine-grade option earns it IP68 classification, meaning it can operate under water. Not only is this vital in marine applications, but it also eases design of any type of equipment that may be at risk of being submerged or flooded. Marine Applications Using H-Track with the IP68 marine-grade option brings several advantages compared to other solutions for underwater linear motion. • Simple electrical control. • The hydraulic system absorbs shocks and vibrations related to moving through water, waves and currents at different speeds and angles. • No breather tubes are necessary. •...

Other Underwater Applications H-Track is the answer to many linear motion applications that need to be able to operate underwater occasionally or permanently - a need that few to none of todays standard solutions can fulfill. • Equipment in cellars, wells or water tanks. • Water treatment plants. • Irrigation control applications. • Small-scale hydro-power plants. • Process machinery to control flow or hatches. • Sewage and draining applications. • Boat trailers and other waterfront vehicles. • Loading docks that are are susceptible to flooding.
