P-Series: Premium Linear Actuator (Legacy)
P-Series: Premium Linear Actuator (Legacy)
Description
Recommended Replacement: For new designs requiring superior durability and performance, please upgrade to our Super Duty Series Actuators.
Series Classification: P-Series (Premium Legacy) | Application: Corrosion-Resistant Automation, Outdoor Equipment, & Industrial Upgrades
The P-Series Premium Actuator is the upgraded successor to our Standard Classic models, engineered for applications demanding higher durability and a premium finish. It features a Zinc Alloy Housing for superior impact strength and Aerospace-Grade Aluminum tubing for enhanced corrosion resistance, making it an excellent choice for outdoor or harsh environment installations.
Available in three force options (35 lbs, 150 lbs, and 200 lbs), the P-Series operates with a low noise profile (just 20dB over ambient). It includes built-in internal limit switches to automatically stop the motor at the end of the stroke, ensuring a maintenance-free lifespan for your automation projects.
Key Upgrades over Classic Series
- Enhanced Materials: Zinc alloy motor housing and aluminum stroke rods for increased impact and corrosion resistance.
- Quieter Operation: Precision gearing reduces operating noise to ~20dB above ambient.
- High Static Hold: All models capable of holding up to 500 lbs static force.
- Versatile Mounting: Compatible with multiple bracket styles for flexible installation.
Compatible Accessories (Sold Separately): MB1-P Brackets - MB-PB Base Bracket - MB6 Body Bracket - MB10 Rod End Bracket
