Following
information is necessary in order to select and dimension an electric
actuator:
1) Output drive
2) Connecting flange
3) Power supply:
- Motor voltage
- Control voltage
4)Ambient conditions
5) Open-loop control operation / mode of operation
6) Closed-loop control operation / mode of operation
7) Torque requirement / output torque
8) Speed / number of revolutions
9) Positioning angle
10) Travel
11) Positioning time
12) Positioning speed
13) Force requirement / operating force
14) Kind, amount and gradient (time response) of the operating signal
15) Required position in case of breakdown or failure of the control
circuit (open, closed, keep position, emergency position)
16) Special mechanical solutions
17) Additional components, e.g. limit switches, position sensors,
. .
18) Required closing force / closing torque for tight closing |
