1 Measuring range 2 Operating range
Operating range for linear actuators:
The operating range for linear actuators is ±45° symmetrically
to the longitudinal axis. The usable span within the operating
range is at least 25° (recommended figure 40°). The usable
span does not necessarily need to run symmetrically to the
longitudinal axis.
Operating range of rotary actuators:
The usable span is 90°, which must be entirely within the
measuring range, but does not necessarily need to run
symmetrically to the longitudinal axis.
NOTICE
During installation make sure that the actuator travel or
rotation angle for position feedback is implemented correctly.
