Max-Air UT 180° Actuators Aluminum

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The UT 180° Series actuator is an advanced rack and pinion pneumatic actuator designed for extended rotary operation beyond traditional 90° quarter-turn applications. Available in double-acting, spring return, and center return configurations, these actuators deliver exceptional flexibility with adjustable travel positions ranging from 120° to 180° rotation, making them ideal for multiport valve automation and specialized flow control applications.

Built with precision-engineered components, including a hard-anodized aluminum body and rugged tooth design, the UT 180° Series features dual patented travel stops, NAMUR standard mounting, and ISO 5211 compliance. The actuator's innovative design ensures reliable performance while minimizing dynamic forces and extending operational life across diverse industrial applications.
