New and improved FlowCon FH Actuator
- for FlowCon Green.3
FlowCon introduces a new and improved FH version replacing the current FH.0.2 and FH.0.4. The new actuator - merely called FH - will replace current FH-actuators, and will continue being the proper actuator for the FlowCon Green.3 valves.
The new FlowCon FH-actuator holds several improved advantages and more new features:
- Simple selection - All control modes in 1:
The new version will include 24V modulation, 3-point floating and 2-position in one and the same actuator making it a one-choice only. - Flexible solution - Selectable control characteristic:
Linear flow or equal percentage to be selected directly on the actuator. Hence, control characteristic for the valve may be determined late and even after installation. - Easy installation - Upside-down:
The new version allows upside-down installation making 360° installation possible. - Built-in safety - Manual override:
The new version includes an integrated manual hex key operated override equipped with a friction clutch which slips when the applied torque is too high. The exclusion of the separate valve adaptor will eliminate possible manual errors. - Energy saving - Lower power consumption:
ower consumption is reduced from 7VA to now 6VA when operating in AC and similarly for DC it is now 4.1W and only 2.6W during operation. - Faster operation - Faster run time:
Actuator run time is reduced from 28 sec/mm on the current version to now 22 sec/mm.
