The ARI-PACO Electric Thrust Actuator is equipped with advanced features to ensure optimal performance and reliability. One of its key functions is the automatic travel adaptation, which allows the actuator to automatically adjust its control and feedback signals based on the actual valve travel. During a manually initiated initialisation run, the real valve travel is determined, and the system adapts accordingly. This process is visually and mechanically indicated. The electronic travel switching ensures precise movement to the final positions by counting the steps needed to achieve the required nominal thrust, contributing to the long-lasting performance of the actuator.

Additionally, the actuator offers switchable valve blocking protection to safeguard the system from potential damage due to long periods of inactivity. When this feature is activated, the actuator briefly opens the valve every 24 hours to prevent the soft sealing from sticking to the valve seat. In cases where the valve becomes blocked, the actuator automatically attempts to remove the obstruction by sending various movement commands. These actions are signalled by a 13-volt feedback signal, providing real-time monitoring and protection of the system’s functionality.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Electric actuators can be highly energy-efficient, especially when compared to traditional hydraulic or pneumatic systems. They only consume electricity when in operation, and advancements in motor technology, such as brushless DC motors, contribute to increased efficiency.

Yes, there are electric actuators specifically designed for hazardous environments, including those with explosive atmospheres. These actuators adhere to industry-specific standards and certifications, such as ATEX or IECEx, to ensure safety in potentially dangerous settings.

An electric actuator is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical movement to control the position or operation of a mechanism, typically used in industrial automation and various other applications.

Electric actuators work by receiving an electrical signal, usually from a controller or a computer, and converting it into linear or rotary motion. This is achieved through the use of electric motors, gears, and other mechanical components.

Electric actuators offer precise control, high efficiency, and low maintenance compared to other types of actuators. They are also cleaner and more environmentally friendly as they don't require hydraulic fluids.

There are various types of electric actuators, including linear actuators, rotary actuators, screw jack actuators, and others. Each type is designed for specific applications and motion requirements.

Electric actuators find applications in industries such as manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, robotics, water treatment, and more. They are used wherever precise and automated control of mechanical systems is required.

Yes, many electric actuators are designed to be weatherproof and can withstand harsh environmental conditions. However, it's essential to choose the right actuator with the appropriate protection ratings for outdoor use.

Yes, electric actuators can be easily integrated into various automation systems. They are compatible with programmable logic controllers (PLCs), distributed control systems (DCS), and other control devices.

Factors to consider include load requirements, speed, precision, environmental conditions, duty cycle, and available power supply. Choosing the right actuator depends on the specific needs of the application.

Electric actuators generally have lower maintenance requirements compared to hydraulic or pneumatic actuators. However, it's essential to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for periodic checks and lubrication.

Yes, electric actuators are often used as retrofit solutions to replace older mechanical or hydraulic systems. They offer advantages such as improved control, energy efficiency, and reduced maintenance costs in such applications.
