N8 Rotary and part-turn actuator
To increase the torque of the N8 series solution, an additional gearbox is added to the N1 to N4 A series actuators. This increases the available torque range to 500 Nm.
The numerous options and actuators based on the electrical design common to series N1 to N4 ensure the N series is the optimum solution for applications in process plant engineering.
The design of the housing made of die-cast aluminium and zinc in combination with permanently lubricated gearing with sintered-bronze bearing bushes ensures their suitability for use in a harsh operating environment.
Use of an (optional) electronic position controller ESR-N can make it easier to integrate the rotary and part-turn actuator into the controls of complex systems.
