Pneumatic Actuators - Figure 79U/79E

Model 065 to 181

Double Acting and Spring Return pneumatic

actuators for on/off or modulating control of most
quarter turn applications. Output torques to 2385 Nm.

Features

Compact rack and pinion design

utilising the whole piston area to
develop output torque.
Adjustable travel stops in both
directions.
Pistons with integral rack drive
reducing the number of dynamic
seals, minimising air leakage.
Double pistons nullify sideloads on
the pinion shaft, minimising
bearing wear.
Internal air porting.
Hard anodised aluminium body
protects against corrosive
environments including saliferous
atmospheres.
Female output drive enabling
direct mounting in certain
applications, thereby eliminating
special connections to guarantee
correct alignment.
Bottom entry pinion shaft.
Anti-friction piston pads ensuring
no metal to metal contact,
providing a smooth operation.
Ideal for modulating or on/off
control applications.
Grease lubricated for life.
An extensive range of standard
accessories are available for direct
mounting to Keystone actuators.
- Solenoid Valves - weatherproof to
intrinsically safe.
- Limit Switchboxes - weatherproof
or explosionproof.
- Positioners - pneumatic electropneumatic and programmable.
- Declutchable manual override
gearbox.
- High Visibility Indicator.

General Applications

Technical Data

For remote control of any quarter turn

application, for example Ball, Butterfly,
Rotary Plug or Damper Valves.
Figure 79U for direct mounting to
standard Keystone valve
top plates.
Figure 79E for direct mounting to
ISO 5211 valve top plates.

Notes:
1. Adjustable travel stops are not to be used as a manual override.
2. A comprehensive range of double D adaptors are available to suit all Keystone valve stems, refer to separate
literature sheet for adaptability guide.
3. Actuators can be mounted to valves in line or transversely.
* = Adaptor plate kit is required to change from a DAJ to CAJ mounting pattern.
