Features and Benefits Torque Range at 0 Psig Air Pressure: Double Acting: -,00 lbf-in Spring Return: 0 -,00 lbf-in Cycle Life: up to million cycles Extruded Aluminum Body with standard hard anodizing finish and polished internal surfaces Die Cast Aluminum Caps with powder polyester painted, PTFE or nickel plated. Position Indicator with NAMUR slot for easy accessory mounting High Precision Nickle Alloy Steel Blow-out Proof Pinion for corrosion protection and fully confirms to ISO and NAMUR. Dual Opposed Rack Pistons with low friction bearings and guides for high performance, long cycle life and fast operations. Easily inverting the pistons for reversing rotation. Linear Torque Output from 0º through 0º stroke. Independent Travel Stop Adjustments of ±º in both open and closed positions for easily exact valve alignment. High Performance Pre-loaded Springs Cartridges allow for greater safety and longer spring life. Double acting can be easily converted to spring return by adding the cartridges. Different torque requirements can also be safely achieved by changing the quantity of springs. NAMUR Solenoid Mounting Design permitting direct mounting of solenoid valves. Stainless Steel 304 Fasteners as standard High Quality Selected O-rings provides troublefree operation for wide range temperature applications. Precision Replaceable Insert including variable internal geometry configuration for customer requirement available. Optional Corrosion Protection available for body and end caps.

Operations Double Acting A B A B By supplying air to Port A, pressure is applied to the center chamber and forces the dual pistons outward. Linear piston force is transferred via gear racks to the pinion gear, causing the pinion to turn counterclockwise while the air is being exhausted from Port B. By supplying air to Port B, pressure is applied to the outside chamber and drives the dual pistons inward. The action causes the pinion to turn clockwise while the air is being exhausted from Port A. Spring Return A B A B By supplying air to Port A, pressure is applied to the center chamber, forces the dual pistons outward and compresses the springs in the outside chambers and produce counterclockwise rotary. Exhaust air exits at Port B. Upon loss of air pressure, the stored energy in the compressed springs forces the pistons inwards producing rotary motion with exhaust air exiting at Port A. This "fail safe" position is held by spring force until air pressure reapplied to Port A. Installation of Springs for Spring Return Actuator Springs Springs Springs Springs Springs Springs Springs Springs Even spring set is recommended for high cycle application.

Actuators Sizing Guide Double Acting Actuators As shown in the figure, the output torque of double acting actuator is constant in both clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. Actuator can be sized by using steps as follow: Obtain the published maximum valve torque Add recommended safety factor (margin) to the published torque to get the required operating torque. The suggested safety factor for Double Acting Actuator in normal working conditions is at least 0%. Refer to the table of Double Acting Actuator Output Torque above, use the Air Supply Pressure to find the torque that greater than the required operating torque. Check the table Model item to determine the appropriate actuator. Double Acting Torque Curve Torque 0 0 Example: A published highest seating/unseating torque for a high performance butterfly is 00 lbf-in; the hydrodynamic torque for psi pressure drop is 00 lbf-in. The maximum valve torque is 00 + 00 = 30 lbf-in The required operating torque equals to 30 + 30 x 0% = 30 lbf-in Known Air Supply Pressure 0 psig, the first actuator torque that exceeds to the required torque is 4 lbf-in From the table, the selected double acting actuator model is C-DA40. Spring Return Actuators The output torque of spring return actuator is obtained by two operation - Air Stroke and Spring Stroke. Each stroke produces two different values in the operation end position "" or "" shown in the right figures. The four values are used for sizing the actuator. Obtain the published maximum valve torque in work conditions. Add recommended safety factor (margin) to the published torque to get the required operating torque. The suggested safety factor for Spring Return Actuator in normal working conditions is %. Refer to the table of Spring Return Actuator Output Torque above, use the Air Supply Pressure to locate the Air torque greater than the required operating torque. Move the table Spring Return Output column. Check the Spring torque if it exceeds the required torque. Read left cross the table to locate the Spring Numbers and Actuator Model to determine the appropriate actuator size and spring numbers Example: Given a maximum published torque for a flanged valve in full differential pressure is 400 lbf-in The required operating torque is 400 + 400 x % = 440 lbf-in Given Air Supply Pressure is 0 psig, find the Spring Return actuator both Air torque (4 lbf-in) and Spring torque (44 lbs-in) values exceeding to the required torque (440 lbf-in) Cross the table to the left, the selected Spring Return actuator model is C-SR-.
