About Beck Actuators
Unique in Design
Beck actuators are designed and manufactured in a purpose built facility in Pennsylvania USA.
They are unique in design,offering the following features;
Motor and Gear Train
- Unique no-burnout motors for continuous modulation. There are no duty limitations typically found on other electric actuators.
- Motor reaches full speed and torque in less than 50 milliseconds and stops within 25 milliseconds, eliminating deadtime.
- Will not coast or overshoot.
- All wide face spur gear construction virtually eliminates backlash, lubricated for life.
- Minimum step size 0.10% configurable.
Electronics and Positioning Device
- Factory Calibrated smart digital control electronics.
- Contactless Position Sensor, no wearing parts, directly coupled to the gear train.
- No torque switches required.
- HART or Fieldbus Foundation communication technologies available.
- Local Handswitch.
Enclosure
- Precision machined enclosure dust tight weatherproof to NEMA 4X; IP68, 3 metres/48 hours.
- Modular design with all compartments seperated.
- Robust drop in design for easy installation.
- Can be mounted in any orientation.
- Operating Conditions -40°C to 85°C.
General
- Manual Handwheel.
- Stall Protection.
- Virtually Maintenance free.
- CE and ATEX approved.
- Hazardous Location Class1, Div 2, Groups C & D; Class II Div 2, Groups F & G.
