Siemens GMA161.1P actuator is used in an automation system for controlling damper mechanisms and adjusting airflow in environmental conditions within facilities. This actuator is suitable for manufacturing, healthcare and large office buildings.
Working Mechanism:
- The actuator receives a control signal from the system indicating the desired damper position.
- Internal circuitry interprets the signal to determine the necessary mechanical action.
- The motor activates, converting electrical signals into mechanical motion.
- The motor's movement adjusts the damper via a drive mechanism, altering airflow through the HVAC system.
- The actuator provides feedback to the control system, confirming the damper's position aligns with the command.
- It continuously adjusts based on new signals to maintain optimal air conditions.
Features:
- It features IP54 housing for protection against dust ingress and water splashes.
- This Siemens actuator has aluminium housing for ease of portability and corrosion resistance.
- Its self-centring shaft coupling facilitates easy and precise alignment with the damper shaft.
- This actuator has a proportional control signal for precise control adjustments to allow accurate airflow management.
- Its spring return action ensures the actuator returns to a safe default position upon power loss for enhancing safety.
Compatible Accessories:
- Siemens 599-10307S Ball Valve: This valve controls the flow of water and steam by either fully opening or closing. It ensures secure and leak-resistant joints, making them reliable for managing fluid flow in various systems.
