Section 3: Service Condition Limitations
(Limitation of Use)
The operating capabilities are listed below:
• Maximum Operating Pressure:
— Pneumatic Service
— Up to 8 Barg (116 PSIg)
• Ambient Temperature:
Temperature extremes require different solutions to maintain actuator operational
integrity and reliability. For each EL-O-Matic E and P Series actuator is available in
three different temperature executions.
— -20°C to +80°C (-4°F to +176°F) Standard temperature
— -20°C to +120°C (-4°F to +248°F) High Temperature
— -40°C to +80°C (-40°F to +176°F) Low Temperature
• Torque Output Range:
— Double-Acting EL-O-Matic E and P Series actuators, requiring pressure to
rotate in either direction, are available with a torque range between 4.8
Nm (42 lbf.in) and 6,619 Nm (58,583 lbf.in)
— The EL-O-Matic E and P Series spring-return models require pressure in
only one direction of travel and are suitable for air-fail close and air-fail to
open applications without modication. These models are available with a
spring end torque between 4.6 Nm (41 lbf.in) and 1958 Nm (17,330 lbf.in)
• Safety Function:
For spring-return models, the safety function is self-evident performed by the
springs. The safety function of double-acting models shall be performed by the
A-port. The failure rates in Section 5 are valid only for this conguration.
