3 Description
3.1 General information
Somas pneumatic actuators type A are available in two designs:
•
double acting - type DA
•
single acting - type SC (spring to close) or SO (spring to open)
The actuator offers a patented backlash-free transmission coupling and a special
friction coupling which eliminate the play between the actuator and the valve.
(Valid for valves with a shaft diameter ≤ 50 mm).
