Description
SQM5... reversing actuators are used for the positioning of flow control valves, butterfly
valves, dampers, or any application requiring rotary motion. The SQM5… actuators
accommodate control input signals of 4-20 mA, 0-135 Ω, 0-10 Vdc, 0-20 mA, position
proportional and floating control. The available output signals include 4-20 mA,
0-135 Ω, 0-10 Vdc, 0-20 mA, and 0-1000 Ω. SQM5… actuators are available with up to
eight internal, easily accessible and adjustable auxiliary switches.
A selection of exchangeable circuit boards provide a variety of functions including
auto/manual selector switch, manual forward/reverse toggle switch, zero and span
adjustment, parallel or master/slave operation, split range control, input signal override,
and selectable electronic linearization.
The SQM5… is engineered for precision. It is particularly well suited to applications
requiring a high degree of modulating accuracy and repeatability. Drive shaft play is
limited to 0.3° with a modulating accuracy of 250 repositions through 90° of travel.
The SQM5… actuator may be mounted in any position. A selection of mounting
brackets and shafts provide installation flexibility and allow for the simple replacement of
most competitive actuators.
