Series 79 Pneumatic Actuator Asahi/America's Series 79 pneumatic actuators for quarter turn ball and butterfly valves provide accurate and dependable control, especially in corrosive applications. | |||||||||
Series 79 Pneumatic Actuator The units are compact, yet extremely durable and available in output torques from 60 to 17,000 inch-pounds based on an 80-psi air supply. | |||||||||
Series 79 Pneumatic Actuator Three standard actuator materials are offered: glass reinforced polyamide, cataphoresis & rilsan coated cast aluminum alloy, and 316 Stainless Steel; all of which incorporate ISO and NAMUR mounting configurations for simple installation of accessories. These material choices provide excellent protection from adverse environments & corrosive process materials. | |||||||||
Series 79 Pneumatic Actuator Two versions of this actuator are offered: single acting (air to spring or "failsafe") and double acting (air to air). Both versions utilize a double piston, double rack and pinion design. | |||||||||
Series 79 with Solenoid The solenoid valve used for our pneumatic actuators is a 4-way, on/off, electrically controlled valve. An electrical signal to the solenoid's coil switches the compressed air supply to the actuator cavities, as follows: The solenoid valve is used with the actuator, and simultaneously pressurizes Port A while exhausting the end cap cavities through Port B, or vice versa. The solenoids are furnished with mufflers and speed controls. The muffler reduces the sound of the exhausting air, and the speed control determines the cycle time of the actuator. |
