Electric rotary actuators

Actuators are used for automating control valves in all kinds of process engineering system.

A rotary actuator transmits torque to the control valves for at least one complete turn. The torque is the force of a rotary motion which is transmitted via the fastening flanges and connecting elements, expressed in Nm (newton metres).

 

Design principle

Rotary actuators are designed so that the rotary output motion is a multiple of a 360° turn.
Rotary actuators are primarily used for control valves where the rotary motion of the actuator is converted via a spindle to the linear motion required for the valve.


Design

You can select electric rotary actuators according to your specifications or we can suggest them.
