The LA23 is a small and strong push/pull actuator (up to 2500N). LA23 can be used in
various applications where size is important. The actuator does have build in electrical
limit switches and guided nut.
Usage
• Duty cycle: 10 %, 2 minutes continuous use followed by 18 minutes not in use
• Usage temperature: -30 °C to +55 °C (according to ISO 7176-9)
• Storage temperature: -45 °C to +70 °C (according to ISO 7176-9)
• Fire catagory: Enclosure UL94-V0
Warnings
• All LA23 IC (Integrated Controls) versions are not compliant for Medical use.
• Do not sideload the actuator.
• Only use the actuator within specified working limits.
• Always use steel backfixture for LA23 over 1500 N and for pull loads.
• When mounting the LA23 in the application ensure that the bolts can withstand the wear and that they are secured safely.
• Motor type A: 12 V motor
Motor type B: 24 V motor.
• If an actuator with stroke length below 50 mm is used, and the electrical end-stop switch fails, please be aware that the distance before reaching
the mechanical end-stop will be prolonged. The extra distance will be 50 mm minus actual stroke length. I.e. If an actuator with 20 mm stroke
length is used and the switch fails, it will travel an additional 30 mm before reaching the mechanical end-stop.
• Instruction concerning the turning of the piston rod eye. When mounting and taking into use, it is not permitted
to make excessive turns of the piston rod eye. In cases where the eye is not positioned correctly, it is permitted
to first screw the eye down to its bottom position, at a maximum torque of 2 Nm (1), and thereafter a
maximum half turn outwards again (2).
Recommendations
• Do not place load on the actuator housing and do prevent impact or blows, or any other form of stress to the housing.
• Ensure that the cable lock is mounted correctly.
• Ensure that the duty cycle and the usage temperatures for LA23 actuators is respected.
• Ensure that the cable cannot be squeezed, pulled or subjected to any other stress.
The item numbers for ordering the Cable Lock are:
• Item number: 0231007 (light grey) for one cable lock (1 piece).
• Item number: 0231037 (black) for one cable lock (1 piece). Below you see an instruction in how to mount and remove the cable lock from LA23.
a) Mount a cable lock:
Push down until the cable lockclicks into place.
Step 1:
Insert e.g. a screw-
driver at a 45 °C
angle as illustrated.
Step 2:
Turn the screwdriver
to release the cable
lock.
Step 3:
Now the cable lock
can be removed by
hand.
b) Cable lock removal
Note: When a cable lock has been removed, it is recommended to replace it with a new.
