THOMSON S24-17A8-02 Actuator, 24 Vdc, 75 lbf, 1.8 Inch, No Feedback, Cable length 2 Inch, Connector

THOMSON S24-17A8-02 linear actuator is suitable for converting rotational motion into linear or pull / push movements. It is ideal for the replacement of comparable size pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders.

Features:

• This compact and lightweight actuator utilises a DC motor to stroke the main rod shaft for lowering, lifting, pushing, pulling or positioning the load.
• It comes with a self-locking acme screw drive system that cannot be moved without external force application and also eliminate a costly brake in many applications.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is a manual override?

A. Manual override allows the operation of an actuator in both directions in case of a power failure. The actuator accepts a hexagon-shaped key to rotate the motor in any direction.

Q. What is an end of stroke limit switch?

A. Upon reaching either end of the motor's stroke, the rod of the actuator makes contact with the limit switch, which turns off power to the motor, thus stopping the rod to travel further and causing damage.

Q. What is the main difference between an acme and a ball screw?

A. All acme screws are self-locking to withstand vibrations and shock while the ball screw incorporates an anti-back driven brake that engages when the actuator has come to a complete stop.
