Model: 1078 (Spring-Return), 1078D (Double-Acting)
Type: Piston Actuator, Scotch-Yoke design
Action: Spring-Return (1078) / Double-Acting (1078D)
Standard Travel: 90° and 180° rotation (other angles available)
Air Supply Pressure Range: 3.0 to 8.6 bar (40 to 125 psig) for spring-return models. Up to 10.3 bar (150 psig) for double-acting.
Ambient Temperature Range: -20° to 85°C (-4° to 185°F) with standard lubricant. Optional lubricants available for lower temperatures.
Mounting Position: Any position. Mounting base can be rotated in 5° increments.
Torque & Spring Output:
Torque Output: Available in multiple spring ranges to provide specific breakaway and running torque values. Output is a function of air supply pressure and spring size.
Example: A typical 1078 size 90 actuator can produce a spring-end torque of over 4,000 Nm (3,000 lb-ft).
Spring Ranges: Multiple spring packs are available to match the specific torque requirements of the valve.
