ACTUSAFE®

ACTUSAFE® - the fail-safe electric actuator for the highest demands

Disaster such as week-long fires in oil and gas fields leaks in pipelines, or burst and burning gas pipes following an earthquake, can cause an unimaginable amount of ecological damage. This can be entirely prevented by ACTUSAFE®.
Dangerous and turbulent system conditions are

returned to a safe status. Mechanical every storage

guarantees the attainment of a defined safety position in every situation, even in the case of a failure in the electricity supply. The actuating command is then either provided by a superordinated monitoring system, external sensor, or the actuator itself.


Fail-safe

The behaviour of single or groups of units can be described as being fail-safe, when even during an interruption to the every supply, the general safety of the entire plant is assured. This fail-safe behaviour relates to one or several predetermined faults.

  • In a fault situation, ACTUSAFE® switches to a safe position.
  • ACTUSAFE® provides twice the performance of conventional electric actuators.
In addition to the normal actuation procedure, the energy store is charged. This ensures that in all cases, including a failure of the electricity supply, the defined safety position will be achieved.

The demands o fail-safe actuators derive from individual applications. The optimum fulfilment of customer requirements is therefore only possible by means of a solution tailor-made to meet specific situations. The modular system contained in the basic design principles of ACTUSAFE® is based on long-term experience and extensive functional safety analyses.

The utilised quality assurance system is certified according to DIN ISO EN 9001.
