Description
PA-ST1 Specifications

The PA-ST1 is designed for applications that require rapid movement through a drive with fast travel speeds in a linear path. We’ve specifically designed this unit to overcome common challenges found in many high-speed actuator solutions, such as:
  • Mechanical Wear and Tear: Many high-speed actuators are prone to early mechanical failures over time. The PA-ST1 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 to ensure user safety and avoid damage.
  • Water Ingress and Seals: Advanced seals in the PA-ST1 actuator provide robust protection against water ingress, extending the actuator's life in outdoor environments.

Key Benefits and Features of the PA-ST1

  • High Speed: Designed to travel high speeds with reliability and versatility of 250 N dynamic force and 1000 N static force ratings.
  • Durable Construction: Built with long-lasting materials, including a stainless steel 304 stroke rod and aluminum housing, ensuring reliable performance even in harsh conditions.
  • Weather Protection: Rated IP66, offering excellent resistance against dust and water, making it suitable for outdoor environments.
  • Operational Efficiency: Brushed DC motor with 15% duty cycle for efficient operation within specified timeframes.
  • Integrated Limit Switches: Built-in, non-adjustable limit switches ensure precise control of the actuator's motion, enhancing safety and reliability.
