Pneumatic Actuators - Figure 79U/79E

Model 065 to 181

Double Acting and Spring Return pneumatic

actuators for on/off or modulating control of most
quarter turn applications. Output torques to 2385 Nm.

Features

Compact rack and pinion design

utilising the whole piston area to
develop output torque.
Adjustable travel stops in both
directions.
Pistons with integral rack drive
reducing the number of dynamic
seals, minimising air leakage.
Double pistons nullify sideloads on
the pinion shaft, minimising
bearing wear.
Internal air porting.
Hard anodised aluminium body
protects against corrosive
environments including saliferous
atmospheres.
Female output drive enabling direct
mounting in certain applications,
thereby eliminating special
connections to guarantee correct
alignment.
Bottom entry pinion shaft.
Anti-friction piston pads ensuring
no metal to metal contact,
providing a smooth operation.
Ideal for modulating or on/off
control applications.
Grease lubricated for life.
An extensive range of standard
accessories are available for direct
mounting to Keystone actuators.
- Solenoid Valves - weatherproof to
intrinsically safe.
- Limit Switchboxes - weatherproof
or explosionproof.
- Positioners - pneumatic electropneumatic and programmable.
- Declutchable manual override
gearbox.
- High Visibility Indicator.

A.C.N. 000922690
