FAQ
Which valves is the Neles Easyflow CC Series suitable for actuating, and what type of actuation does it use?
The CC Series is a pneumatic piston-cylinder linear actuator suitable for the rapid operation of gate valves, globe valves, dampers, and other linear-motion valves. The standard version is double-acting. Please consult Neles regarding spring-return versions.
Which thrust and operating-condition parameters should be checked when selecting a CC Series actuator?
The CC Series has a force range of 3016–96220 N, a maximum working pressure of 10 bar, an operating temperature range of -20 to +80 °C, and an IP 67 ingress protection rating. During selection, verify that the thrust required by the valve and the operating conditions are compatible with these parameters. Please consult Neles regarding high-temperature or low-temperature versions.
Which structural features of the CC Series reduce friction and maintain motion guidance?
The cylinder tube is manufactured from extruded aluminum profile or steel and micro-honed to achieve extremely low friction. Both the piston and piston rod are guided by rigid bearings. The heavy-duty mounting components are manufactured from steel and cast iron, resulting in a robust and compact overall design.
Does the CC Series support cushioning adjustment at both ends, and what are its maintenance features?
The CC Series has adjustable cushioning at both ends, and its maintenance design emphasizes safety and convenience. Adjustable cushioning at both ends is a defined structural feature of the series.
What control tasks is the CC Series suitable for, and does it provide safety integrity capability?
The CC Series is suitable for factory automation, general process applications, high-cycle-life control, and on-off applications. It can also be used for emergency shutdown. The series provides SIL 3 capability.
