Bottom Mounting Flange The “patent pending” bottom plate design, unique to MAX-AIR, secures a captive pinion (anti-blowout system) and permits flexibility in mounting by retaining AISI 304 nuts (standard) or AISI 304 bolts (optional) in either dual ISO patterns, or to customer dimensions. Flexible Output Shafts The female pinion drive is standard with a double square output drive, and optional with a double-D drive, keyed drive and designs to meet your specific requirements. Shaft bearings isolate the pinion gear from the housing and support the shaft for high cycle applications. Many competitive manufacturers do not provide this critical feature. High Visibility Position Indication External open/close indicator as standard, available for all the rotations. Pinion height (NAMUR 30) allows manual override without disturbing the indicator position.
Pistons Pistons incorporate double wear pads to separate the rack from the actuator wall and serve as both guide and wear bearings.
Fasteners Epoxy coated special steel springs are pre-loaded with non-metallic materials. The stainless steel end cap fasteners are extra long to allow for spring relaxation. All parts are corrosion resistant.
Testing & Traceability All units are externally stamped with a progressive traceable serial number. 100% of all units are factory pressure and leak tested, and individually boxed for shipment.
Working Conditions Air pressure operation from 2 to 10 Bar (40 - 150 PSI). Water, nitrogen and compatible hydraulic fluids may also be used to power the actuator. All external fasteners are corrosion resistant stainless steel. All internal and external surfaces are hard anodized for corrosion resistance, with all units permanently lubricated at the factory with non-silicone grease.
