CAN HYBRID LINEAR ACTUATORS OPERATE IN DIRTY INDUSTRIAL ENVIRONMENTS?

Industrial environments can expose actuation equipment to dirt, debris, heat, and demanding operating conditions. So, how does a Hybrid Linear Actuator perform in dirty environments? In this Ask the Experts video, the experts at Kyntronics showcase an SHA Hybrid Linear Actuator used in a steel plant application and discuss the features designed to help protect the actuator in harsh industrial environments.

Key Takeaways:

• The SHA’s rugged, self-contained design makes it well suited for dirty industrial environments such as steel and metal processing applications.
• Internal temperature sensors provide monitoring and warning capabilities to help protect the actuator from overheating.
• Sealed, self-contained sensors help protect critical feedback components from dirt and contaminants in the surrounding environment.
