The power consumption varies depending on whether the actuator is in
standby mode or is running, see product datasheet.
Eltorque actuators may be used according to IEC 60034-1 duty type S2.
Industrial Valves – Actuators, chapter 4.7:
For class A – ON/OFF operation, duty performance is defined as the
minimum number of cycles per hour, where “one cycle consists of nominal
90° angular travel in both directions (i.e. 90° to open + 90° to close), based on
an average load of at least 30 % of the rated torque with the ability to
transmit 100 % of the rated torque for at least 5 % at each end of travel, with
a cumulative operating time not exceeding 15 minutes in one hour.” (EN
15714-2, chapter 4.7.2.2, a.).
For class B – inching/positioning, duty performance is defined as
the minimum number of starts per hour,
where “one start consists of a movement of at least 1°
in either direction, with a load of at least 30 % of the rated torque. The cyclic
duration factor (i.e. the ratio between the running period and total period)
shall be not less than 25 % (e.g. 1 s. running and 3 s. resting)” (EN 15714-2,
chapter 4.7.2.2, b.)
For classes C and D – modulating and continuous modulating, duty
performance is defined as the minimum number of starts per hour, where
“one start consists of a movement of at least 1°. In either direction, with a
load of at least 30 % of the rated torque” (EN 15714-2, chapter 4.7.2.2, c.).
Rotating electrical machines, chapter 4.2:
Duty type S2: “Operation at a constant load for a given time, less than that
required to reach thermal equilibrium, followed by a time de-energized and
at rest of sufficient duration to re-establish machine temperatures within 2
K of the coolant temperature.” (IEC 60034-1, chapter 4.2.2)
Eltorque actuators may be used in classes A and B – 10 000 cycles per
lifetime.
Endurance is defined according to EN 15714-2, chapter 4.1 and Annex A.
For classes A and B – ON/OFF operation and inching/positioning, endurance
defines the minimum number of cycles to be endured per lifetime, where
“one cycle consists of nominal 90°. Angular travel in both directions (i.e.,
90° to open + 90° to close), based on an average load of at least 30 % of the
rated torque with the ability to transmit 100 % of the rated torque for at
least 5 % at each end of travel, with a cumulative operating time not
exceeding 15 minutes in one hour.” (EN 15714-2, chapter 4.1.2, b.)
For class B – inching/positioning, duty performance is defined as
the minimum number of starts per hour,
