FAQ
What operating principle does the EBRO SC linear pneumatic actuator use, and which valve motion requirements is it suited for?
The EBRO SC is a double-acting linear pneumatic actuator that uses compressed air to drive the piston in linear motion in both directions, making it suitable for valve actuators requiring linear push-pull strokes. Its stroke range is 90mm to 1030mm; the specific match should be confirmed based on the valve's required stroke, thrust, and mounting conditions.
How to select the EBRO SC actuator size based on thrust and air supply pressure?
The SC series delivers output thrust of 4524N to 46322N at 6bar air supply pressure, with cylinder bores available in Ø100mm, Ø125mm, Ø160mm, Ø200mm, Ø250mm, and Ø320mm. Sizing should be based on the opening and closing thrust required by the valve under actual differential pressure, media conditions, and seal friction, and the on-site air supply pressure should be confirmed not to exceed 10bar.
What are the compressed air quality requirements for the EBRO SC actuator?
The actuator should use clean, dry compressed air, and the air supply quality should comply with ISO 8573-1:2010 Class 3. Stable air quality helps maintain the actuator's operational reliability and reduces the risk of contamination, wear, or abnormal operation of pneumatic components.
How does the EBRO SC actuator achieve position indication and solenoid valve mounting?
The SC series uses non-contact position indication with a magnetic piston, and SC 200 and smaller sizes come standard with an integrated mounting slot for inductive limit switches. The actuators are equipped with solenoid valve interfaces compliant with NAMUR and VDI/VDE 3845 standards, facilitating direct solenoid valve mounting and reducing external piping requirements.
What temperature and explosion-proof environments is the EBRO SC actuator suitable for?
The standard model has an operating temperature range of -30°C to +100°C, with high-temperature and low-temperature configurations available. The product is certified to CE II 2G Ex h T6 X Gb and CE II 2D Ex h IIIC T80°C X Db explosion-proof standards and complies with DIN EN 15714-3. When used in hazardous areas, suitability should be confirmed based on the actual area classification, temperature class, and system installation conditions.
