AC (with display)
AC actuator controls are your perfect solution if the application requires self-adapting control functions, data logging, a configurable interface or if valve and actuator are to be integrated into a Plant Asset Management System due to advanced diagnostic functions.
AC actuator controls are equipped with a parallel interface for free configuration and/or interfaces to fieldbus systems as used within process automation.
The diagnostic functions comprise a time-stamped event report, torque characteristics logging, continuous recording of temperatures and vibration within the actuator and, furthermore, counting the number of starts and motor running times.
Further to the basic functions, AC actuator controls offer a number of options to meet special demands. These include torque bypass to unseat valves if tightly seated or functions for extending operating times to avoid water hammer within pipelines.
With the development of the AC 01.2, particular emphasis was laid on user-friendliness and the ease of integration of actuators into the DCS. The large graphic display is used to perform menu-controlled programming of the actuator controls, optionally using AUMA CDT via wireless Bluetooth connection. For fieldbus connections, AC programming can be performed from the control room.

Part-turn actuators
With the FQM fail safe unit, AUMA offers innovative and safe actuator solutions for automatic operation of valves in case of emergencies making use of stored mechanical energy.
Constant torque characteristics across the overall torque range.
The spring is not operated during standard operation. As a consequence, actuator sizing can be relatively small.
The end position switches are automatically set during the setting procedure of end positions OPEN and CLOSED and do not require separate adjustment.

Multi-turn actuators
One solution for gate, butterfly, ball/plug and globe valves. Compact actuators with intelligent functions as platform concept for tailored automation solutions.
Each PROFOX is equipped with a centrally located LED: The FOX-EYE. It provides clearly visible information about both actuator and valve status. The FOX-EYE display scheme can be configured by the user as required.

Part-turn gearboxes
AUMA part-turn gearboxes are used for operating part-turn and special valves (damper, flue gas damper, ball valves).
Product
Communication systems
Many different fieldbus systems are available on the market. Certain preferences have evolved on a regional level or specifically to certain plant applications. Since AUMA actuators are implemented in all types of technical process plants around the globe, they are available with interfaces for the different established fieldbus systems within the process automation industry.
Overall, AUMA devices are available with digital and analogue inputs to connect additional sensors to the fieldbus.

Linear actuators
Electric linear actuators performing a linear movement for automating globe valves, for example, can be combinations of SA multi-turn actuators and LE linear thrust units. If a lever arrangement has to be operated, the LE linear trust unit can also be mounted onto a base.

Multi-turn gearboxes
If the drive shaft is to be positioned at a certain angle to the output drive shaft, combinations of the SA multi-turn actuators with GST spur gearboxes are used.
The output torque can be considerably multiplied.

AC (with display)
Explosion-proof devices must be used in plants where potentially explosive atmospheres are likely to occur. These devices are designed so that they will not act as an ignition source. They neither generate ignition sparks, nor hot surface temperatures. Certification is performed in close collaboration with national and international certification bodies. For multi-turn actuators SAEx/SAREx 07.2 – SAEx/SAREx 16.2 and part-turn actuators SQEx/SQREx 05.2 – SQEx/SQREx 14.2, AUMATIC ACExC 01.2 actuator controls with integral local controls are available.

AM (without display)
AM actuator controls with their straightforward design are the perfect choice when using parallel signal transmission while a relatively low number of feedback signals is required. Few parameters need to be defined via sliding switches during commissioning, e.g. type of seating in end positions. Control is made via operation commands OPEN, STOP, CLOSE. Reaching an end position and collective fault signals are reported back to the DCS as feedback signals. These signals are visually displayed at the local controls via the indication lights. As an option, the valve position can be transmitted as 0/4 – 20 mA signal to the DCS.

Multi-turn actuators
A sophisticated sealing system combined with excellent corrosion protection properties qualify AUMA actuators for underwater use.
Double sealed cable glands at the particularly crucial electrical connection safely prevent any ingress of water. Inner seals at all housing covers, sometimes coming in pairs, as well as a solid shaft made of stainless steel complete the universal concept.
