These explosion proof actuators convert electrical energy into linear motion. They are the straight shooters of the actuator world, doing what they say on the tin.
Compared to hydraulic cylinders, they require less maintenance. They also offer a range of fail-safe features to revert to a safe position if something goes wrong.
IP68
With its stringent testing and standardization, IP68 offers a standardized insight into how well devices withstand the elements. This rating is often preferred by outdoor enthusiasts because it means that their gadgets can withstand accidental liquid spillage, rainy days, and unexpected dips.
Explosion-proof electric actuators are typically used in hazaradous environments, such as those involving petroleum, chemicals, water treatment, shipbuilding, paper manufacturing, and power plants. They’re designed to automate quarter-turn operating applications such as ball valves, butterfly valves, and dampers.
Choosing the right linear actuator and connecting it properly is crucial. Click here for a comprehensive guide on how to do this. The tips are easy to follow and can help you avoid costly mistakes.
ExdIICT5Gb
A flameproof Ex d control panel provides explosion protection for machinery and electrical networks in hazardous areas. This type of panel protects the internal components from dust, humidity and water, and prevents an internal explosion from causing a fire or impacting the surrounding area. It can be used with a wide range of equipment and applications.
The Ex d designation indicates the flameproof type of protection, IIC is the Gas Group and T6 is the Temperature Class. Equipment with this type of protection is suitable for use in zone 0, 1, and 2 hazardous areas.
ATEX approved for gas and dust NB1) II 2G Ex db IIC T6 Gb NB1) 16 ATEX 1234 X.
ExdIICT3Gb
The ‘Ex d’ mark on AnTech Wellhead Outlets means that they are explosion protected by an enclosure that can withstand the force of an explosion and cools the venting gas to prevent it from igniting again in the surrounding hazardous area. This increases safety and reduces maintenance costs by reducing the number of explosions that can occur over the life of the equipment.
