RAM SMART Electric Actuator
40–100 NmIP67
Part-turn or multi-turn SMART actuation for demanding process duty.
The RAM series delivers 40–100 Nm in an IP67 housing and can be configured for part-turn or multi-turn operation — one actuator family covering ball, butterfly and small gate valves.
Wiggle, failsafe, modulation and speed control give the precision complex flow and process systems need. Built-in touchpads simplify set-up and calibration, and every unit can be operated locally or remotely through the RIFT app.
Five flange size options make the RAM straightforward to integrate with a wide range of valve types.
- Part-turn and multi-turn configurations
- IP67 for harsh environments
- Built-in touchpads for set-up
- Wiggle function protects infrequently used valves
- Failsafe and speed control options
- Five flange sizes
