THOMSON PPA00-01B65-18NXXX Actuator, No Motor, 1500 lbf, 18 Inch, No Feedback, 0.33 Inch/Sec Travel

Thomson PPA00-01B65-18NXXX linear actuator is designed to convert rotational motion into linear or pull / push movements. It is used in applications, such as machine tools, industrial machinery, valves, dampers and more.

Features:

• This non-driven actuator is supplied without a motor and driven manually or by the customer-supplied motor.
• It comes with dual input shafts that allow easy mounting of customer-supplied motors or offer easy adaptability to synchronous operation with multiple PPA-M units.
• It can withstand harsh environments and is mounted by the rear trunnions on the cover tube and the clevis on the extension tube.
• It also includes an integral holding brake to prevent downward motion at power off.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is the function of the Acme Screw?

A. Acme Screws are self-locking screws that do not drive back due to excessive vibrations or shock. They feature a trapezoidal thread profile that translates rotary motion into linear motion.

Q. What is a manual override?

A. The actuator allows manual operation of the actuator in both directions in case of a power failure. The actuator accepts a standard hexagon key to rotate the motor in either direction.

Q. What is the advantage of actuator housing?

A. The actuator housing provides environmental protection for the internal components and may act as a structural member of the actuator.
