Controllers for Electric Actuators

An electric actuator is an electromechanical device that responds to an electrical signal in order to facilitate either linear or rotary motion. An actuator links the control system to its operational environment.  Typical applications include the automation of a damper or a valve, increasing process efficiency and complexity within an industrial automation and control system.

An electrical Actuator Controller is used typically for a DC actuator performing functional operations such as opening and closing a mechanical valve and featuring an automatic current stop if the actuator motor experiences an overload situation, protecting the actuator from overload and the application from mechanical damage. Actuator Controllers can be based on hydraulic, pneumatic, electric, thermal or mechanical means and are increasingly operated via computer software.
