Classification of electrical actuators

An electrical actuator is a device that converts the output signal of a regulator using electrical energy to produce mechanical movement.

Electric actuator

Pay attention to the theory of automatic control and control devices.

Electric actuators are used in cases where little effort is required to move the regulating body or, conversely, a large force is required. One of the advantages of using electric actuators is ease of installation. All industrial enterprises are provided with electricity, and installation work on installing electrical actuators is usually not a problem.

There are two general types of electrical actuators: solenoid actuators and electrical motor actuators.

Electrical solenoid actuators

Solenoid actuators use the principle of electromagnetic attraction to produce mechanical movement.


Solenoid actuator

The main advantage of solenoid actuators is their fast response: armature movement is almost instantaneous after current is applied or turned off. The disadvantage of solenoid actuators is that they cannot be set between extremes: they are either fully extended or fully compressed (rod retracted). Also, the design of the solenoid actuator prohibits its use in components that require large forces. To generate large gravitational forces, the solenoid actuator must be extremely large in size.

Main details:

1. An anchor, like a cylinder of iron or steel; 2. rod that connects the armature to the controlled device; 3. a spring that presses on the anchor; 4. electrical winding, which is a coil of wire with leads.

Operating principle of the solenoid mechanism:

1. Current passes through the winding, the coil becomes an electromagnet; 2. the armature is attracted by the electromagnet and moves inside the coil; 3. As a result, the rod moves, causing a change in the position of the device associated with it; 4. When the electric current is turned off, the armature returns to its original position by a spring.

Hydraulic modifications

Hydraulic devices are well suited for adjusting valves. If you believe the opinion of experts, there are many modifications of contact rheostats on the market. The main disadvantage is the reduced frequency. In this case, contactors are used only for two phases. Some modifications are made with blockers. Expanders for them are selected of a two-pole type. The conductivity parameter reaches a maximum of 130 microns. These modifications are not best suited for powerful drive devices. You can buy a good actuator in a store for 33 thousand rubles.

Electric motor actuator

Electric motor actuators are typically used when a large amount of force is required to produce mechanical movement and positioning between extreme positions is required.


Electric motor actuator

Operating principle of electric motor actuator

1. An electric motor drives the gear train, which is used to move the regulator; 2. two position switches (labeled A and B) are located at the points at which the control element is fully open and fully closed; 3. When the control element reaches the full open position, position switch A opens, turning off the electric motor; 4. Similarly, position switch B opens when the control element reaches the fully closed position, also switching off the motor.

Technical description (characteristics) of actuators MEO, MEOF

Single-turn (or part-turn) electric actuators MEO (lever), MEOF (flange) and PEOZ drives are designed to transmit torque to the valve when it is rotated one turn or less (from 0 to 360°).

Electrical actuators MEO and MEOF (electric drives) are designed to actuate shut-off and control valves in automatic process control systems, in accordance with command signals from regulating and control devices.

PEOZ actuators are designed to operate shut-off valves in the “Open-Close” mode.

Options for actuators and drives:

- general industrial (basic version) - explosion-proof (explosion hazard category for explosion-proof versions (subgroup and temperature class) - IIBT4); — for nuclear power plants (increased reliability for nuclear power plants and nuclear energy facilities (UAE)).

Functions of the executive mechanisms of MEO and MEOF

— Automatic, remote or local (manual) opening and closing of valves, stopping of valves in any intermediate position; — Indication of the degree of opening (closing) of the valve on the scale of the local indicator; — Positioning of the working element of the reinforcement in any intermediate position; — Formation of a discrete signal about the intermediate and final positions of the working body of the valve; — Torque overload protection (MEO(F)-1600-04K, -08K, -09K, MEOF-10(K)). Modern modifications of actuators also allow the implementation of a digital output option via the RS485 interface: - Generation of digital signals of the state of limit and limit switches for transmission via the RS-485 interface (mechanisms equipped with a sensor unit BD-1, BD-2). — Discrete state of opening and closing torque switches for transmission via RS-485 interface (MEO(F)-08K, -09K, MEOF-10(K)) — Generation of digital signals of the state of opening and closing torque switches, torque signal for transmission via RS-485 interface (MEO(F)-08K, -09K, MEOF-10(K)).

Functions of PEOZ and KSATO drives operating in automatic control systems:

Functions of KSATO drives operating in the “Open-Close” mode: Remote or manual opening and closing of valves; Remote stop of valves in any intermediate position; Indication of the degree of opening (closing) of the valve on the scale of the local indicator; Torque overload protection.
