Key Features• FAST, SMOOTH AND ACCURATE

RESPONSEFrom stepless cam drive and proportionalspool valve.

• UNIVERSAL APPLICATIONMount on any quarter - turn or linearactuator, single or double acting, in anyorientation. Adjustable span may be setanywhere within the 100° range.

• HIGH FLOW / GAIN VERSIONS93 nl/min (3.3 scfm), 283 nl/min (10 scfm)and 764 nl/min(27 scfm) models areavailable.

• INTEGRAL OPTIONS – EASILYRETROFITTED MODULES– two wire 4–20mA angle retransmit insideenclosure– mechanical or inductive position indicationswitches (for general and hazardous areas)in IP65 box– general and hazardous area 4–20mA I/Pconverter modules (intrinsically safe andNEMA 7 explosion proof options available)– high visibility Clear Cone angle monitor onpositioner and switch box versions– DIN plug for external retransmitconnection.– High Temperature seals for 100°Cambient applications.

• SIMPLE, TIME SAVING FIELD SETUPEasy calibration and quick reversal ofrotational sense without special tools oradditional parts. Fast change of responsecharacteristic cams.

• COMPACT AND ROBUST METALHOUSINGWeatherproof sealed and epoxy painted forharsh industrial environments.

• ATEX CATEGORY 1 APPROVALUpto Category 1 approval on most versions,Category 2 approval on some others(Actuators also approved).

• PROVEN FORCE BALANCE SYSTEMEmploying unique straight - linemechanism–minimising wear, backlashand friction. Positioning is unaffected bysupply pressure flutuations.

• VISUAL POSITION INDICATIONExternal pointer / scale or high visibilityClear Cone angle monitor plus internalangle scale for field setup.

• INSTALLATION FLEXIBILITYMount on any actuator using VDI / VDE3845 NAMUR drive, or Kinetrol malesquare,with mounting brackets, or directmount ( with integral porting) to Kinetrolactuators.

• VIBRATION AND SHOCK RESISTANTLow mass spool and robust mechanismprovide 4G / 1OOHz industrial vibrationtolerance in any attitude.

• ADAPTATIONS AND ACCESSORIESConsult Kinetrol for:– split range or customized cams– special failure modes eg fail-freeze– filters, regulators and gauges– mounting kits for rotary / linear drives.
