Linear Actuators for Hazardous Environments

Feb. 2, 2011
GSX and GSM linear actuators now offer Class I, Division 2 Certification, expanding the line for operation in hazardous environments.

Well suited for process control valve and damper applications, GSX and GSM linear actuators provide continuous hold on the position of the valve stem or shaft. This allows for an extremely fast response to even the smallest command signal changes without overshoot—even when friction is present, says the vendor. This design results in improved loop performance and reduced process variability. To meet application requirements, the Class I, Division 2 linear actuators are also available with resolver feedback and handwheel options.
