Max-Electric SX Series

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The SX Series hazardous location electric actuators are industrial-grade mechanical spring return units designed for critical applications requiring fail-safe operation in hazardous environments. These robust actuators feature CSA Class 1, Division 1, Groups C, D T4 temperature standards certification and are engineered to provide reliable automation in demanding industrial settings.

Built with a heavy-duty powder-coated aluminum enclosure rated to IP68 standards, these actuators deliver mechanical fail-safe positioning to either full clockwise or counterclockwise positions upon power loss. The SX Series combines superior protection with versatile control options, available in various voltage configurations including 24 VAC/VDC, 120/230 VAC, and complete 3-phase solutions.
