Direct-Coupled ControlSet Actuators, Proportional 2-10 VDC with Feedback (320 in-lb)
These powerful, efficient, durable, direct-coupled
actuators provide tri-state or proportional control for
large control dampers or valves in HVAC systems. A
minimum torque of 180 or 320 in-lb. is available over
the 94° angular rotation. Capacitor-driven fail-safe
models provide efficient operation with switchselectable
fail direction.
The proportional actuator models accept a 2–10
VDC or 4–20 mA control signal input from a thermostat,
controller, or building automation system.
“Anti-jitter” circuitry significantly reduces hunting
and needless wear (from unnecessary miniscule
position changes caused by undamped analog input
signals) on the actuator and valve packing or damper
components. A user-initiated, auto-mapping
feature provides more precise equipment control by
reassigning the (2–10 VDC or 4–20 mA) input signal
range over a reduced rotation range. These models
also feature a switch-selectable, 1–5 or 2–10 VDC
voltage feedback output that is proportional to the
actuator position.
The tri-state models are designed for use with floating
thermostats, controllers, or building automation
systems. They feature an optional 10K ohm (±10%),
three-wire potentiometer feedback output. Fail-safe
models also allow two-position control as well.
All actuators mount directly on 3/8" up to 1.05"
round or 5/16" up to 5/8" square shafts, eliminating
the need for expensive and complicated linkages. A
non-rotation bracket, to prevent lateral movement, is
included with each actuator. A gear disengagement
button allows manual positioning of the shaft without
energizing the actuator. Removable terminals
and 1/2" NPS conduit fittings make wiring easier.
The actuators are protected against overloading and
do not require end or limit switches.
Features:
- More powerful and less load-dependent (reduced spread between no-load and full-load timing) than earlier MEP-1200/7000/7700 series actuators they replace
- Proportional models include “anti-jitter” circuitry and optional auto-mapping of the full input signal range over a reduced actuator stroke
- Efficient, durable, capacitor-driven fail-safe option with switch-selectable direction provides consistent torque in both powered and fail-safe modes
- Potentiometer or voltage feedback option
- Removable terminals and 1/2" conduit fittings
- Direct mounting to standard shaft sizes, and a gear disengagement button for manual shaft positioning
