Description
PA-04 Specifications

The PA-04 is the most versatile linear actuator in our line-up with a high environmental protection rating, low noise, and high speed with feedback options. We’ve specifically designed this unit to overcome common challenges found in many standard actuator solutions, such as:
  • Mechanical Wear and Tear: Many mini actuators are prone to early mechanical failures over time. The PA-04 actuator addresses this with robust construction and quality motors designed for longevity.
  • Safety Features: Built-in limit switches ensure the actuators automatically shut off electrical power when reaching the end of full retraction and extensions.
  • Water Ingress and Seals: Advanced seals in the PA-04 actuator provide robust protection against ingress, extending the actuator's life in a wide range of outdoor environments.

Key Benefits and Features of the PA-04

  • High Force Ratings: Designed with reliability and versatile capabilities to handle 1780-4004 N dynamic and static force.
  • Durable Construction: Built with long-lasting materials, including an aluminum alloy stroke rod and aluminum alloy housing, ensuring reliable performance even in harsh conditions.
  • Weather Protection: Rated IP66, offering high protection against dust and water, making it suitable for a wide range of outdoor environments.
  • Positional Feedback: The optional hall effect sensors allow for accuracy in reading position for precise movement such as synchronization and memory presets.
  • Integrated Limit Switches: Built-in, non-adjustable limit switches ensure precise control of the actuator's motion, enhancing safety and reliability.
