Performance Graphs
Speed vs Load (12V DC)
This graph illustrates the relationship between load (in Newtons) and speed (in mm/s) for the actuator operating at 12V DC. It shows a 'Rated Load' and a 'Max. Load' point.
Current vs Load (12V DC & 24V DC)
This graph shows the current draw (in Amps) versus load (in Newtons) for the actuator at both 12V DC and 24V DC. It indicates 'Rated Load' and 'Max. Load' points for both voltage inputs.
Dimensional Drawings
The actuator has a main body with key dimensions indicated. The overall length is specified as L=900mm. Two primary mounting points or connection interfaces are labelled A and B, with lengths of 158mm and 208mm respectively. Specific dimensions include diameters of Ø40mm and Ø8mm, and other measurements like 18mm, 20mm, 72mm, 95mm, 42mm, 12mm, 24mm, 30.5mm, and 80.6mm.
A rear connector detail shows a Ø8mm connection point with an 18mm dimension.
A front connector detail shows a Ø8mm connection point with dimensions of 18mm, 42mm, 12mm, 24mm, and an overall length of 900mm (L=900).
Wiring Information
| Power Wires | Red (Connect to Vdc +), Black (Connect to Vdc -) |
|---|---|
| Definition | DC Power |
| Description | Connect the red wire to the positive DC voltage (Vdc +) and the black wire to the negative DC voltage (Vdc -) to extend the actuator. To retract the actuator, reverse the polarity of the DC input. |
