AMOT up the anti in actuation

AMOT EB has released new electric actuators for G series temperature control valves which introduce a range of enhancements to improve system robustness, safety and compatibility, whilst simplifying installation and calibration.

Redesigned for vibration resistance to Lloyds on-engine specification, with the terminal board fitted on anti-vibration mounts to reduce fatigue on electronic components and connections, these actuators have configurable voltage control input to facilitate use with 1-5V and similar control systems.Longer working life has been ensured by replacing the position feedback potentiometer with a contactless Hall Effect sensor. An optional potentiometer is available for existing systems compatibility.

To simplify setup, customer wiring is now in separate terminal box so that the actuator lid does not have to be opened during installation. A simple calibration button, DIP switch configuration for input and motor direction setting and USB port for configuration and software updates, eliminate the need for a bulky configurator.

A positioner can be easily retrofitted to basic EB actuators, which was not possible on previous models, and the positioner power module has universal mains voltage input so that there is no need to set a voltage selector switch when installing or replacing power modules.

Improved safety and system compatibility has been achieved by the mA input and output being opto-isolated to 3kV and the provision of two opto-isolated alarm outputs. Three LED status indicators give a clearer indication of operating condition than the previous single LED.

An easy upgrade path to fully functioning CAN-bus is provided by CAN-bus enabled hardware and real time clock hardware with battery backup.
