JSW Three Position Pneumatic Actuator - Precision Multi-angle Series

Visão geral do produto

Specifically, the JSW three position pneumatic actuator is a precision industrial actuating device designed for multi‑angle control of valves and rotating mechanisms. Unlike standard on‑off actuators, this three position pneumatic actuator supports two main adjustment modes: 0°/45°/90° or 0°/90°/180°, with an adjustable midway position. For 90° actuators, common midway positions include 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, and 70° — these can be customized according to actual application requirements. Furthermore, the actuator complies with ISO 5211 e NAMUR mounting standards, garantindo a compatibilidade com válvulas solenóides, caixas de interruptores de fim de curso e posicionadores dos principais fabricantes mundiais.

How the Three Position Pneumatic Actuator Works

The three position pneumatic actuator achieves its midway position through mechanical limiting of two auxiliary pistons. This design ensures stable and reliable positioning without position drift — a critical requirement for multi‑angle flow regulation applications. The actuator adopts solenoid valve control, with three working positions (midway, full open, full close) switched by controlling air intake and exhaust of different ports. The basic configuration uses two solenoid valves; for more complex position switching sequences (such as 0°→45°→90°→45°→0°), three solenoid valves are optionally available. Additionally, the actuator features precise stroke adjustment: full open and close positions can be calibrated within -5° to +5° (relative to 0° and 90°), and the full stroke (0°-90°, 0°-120°, 0°-180°) supports arbitrary angle setting via special bolts on the end cover.

Principais vantagens do atuador JSW

1.Multi‑Position Adjustable

This three position pneumatic actuator supports 0°/45°/90° or 0°/90°/180° operation, with customizable midway positions. For 90° models, the midway position can be adjusted between 20° and 70°, meeting diverse flow control needs across different valve types.

2.Precise Positioning

Mechanical limiting of auxiliary pistons ensures a stable midway position without position drift. Full open/close positions offer ±5° calibration, providing high control accuracy for applications requiring precise flow regulation.

3.Flexible Solenoid Valve Control

Solenoid valve‑driven switching between three positions enables simple operation and fast response. The actuator is fully compatible with automatic control systems, supporting integration into existing PLC or DCS infrastructures.

4.Wide Stroke Range

Full stroke is adjustable within 0°-90°, 0°-120°, or 0°-180°, adapting to different valve types (ball valves, butterfly valves, plug valves) and application scenarios — from simple on‑off to complex multi‑position modulation.

5.Easy On‑Site Adjustment

Stroke and midway position are adjusted via bolts with lock nuts, requiring no complex tools. This design makes on‑site calibration fast and convenient for maintenance technicians.

Especificações Técnicas

Position limit adjust

Full open and close position control, close position and open position through the two adjustment bolts, can accurately control actuators from -5°to +5°to (0°,90°) adjusted stroke position, as long as the left-handed or right-handed adjustment bolts, and at the right position lock nut.

Full stroke position adjustment

Series pneumatic actuators in a specially designed 0°to 90°, 0°to 120°, within the scope of 0°and 180°can adjust any Angle, set by end cover and the special bolt.
