Fisher 685 actuators have been evaluated for ignition
hazard and certified for CUTR 012/2011 under
“protection by constructional safety”. To ensure
conformity with CUTR, only Fisher parts and materials
can be used.
1. The pressure/temperature limits in this bulletin and any other applicable standard or code should not be exceeded.
2. Consult factory for larger travels or cylinder diameters. The Fisher 585C family of actuators are available for smaller travels or cylinder diameters.
3. Consult factory for applications requiring low or high temperature requirements.
4. Refer to the product nameplates to determine which certifications each actuator construction possesses.
Specifications
Specifications for 685 piston actuators are given in table 1. Refer to the nameplate affixed to the actuator yoke for
