Model and Part Number
The Schneider MD10B - 24 actuator, with the part number 875-1015-000, is a high-quality and reliable device designed for precise control in various applications.
Power Supply and Consumption
Power Supply: This actuator offers great flexibility in power input. It can operate on either 24 Vac with a tolerance of ±20% at a frequency range of 50 - 60 Hz or 24 Vdc with a ±20% tolerance. This wide range of power compatibility ensures that it can be easily integrated into different electrical systems, whether in residential or commercial settings.
Power Consumption: During operation, it consumes only 1.5 W at nominal torque, making it highly energy-efficient. For wire sizing purposes, it has a rating of 3.5 VA, which helps in proper electrical installation planning.
Physical and Mechanical Features
Connection Cable: Comes with a 1 m (3.3 ft) long connection cable that features 3×0.75 mm² (AWG 18) wires. This cable provides a stable connection and is of an appropriate length for most installation scenarios, allowing for convenient setup and integration with other components.
Angle of Rotation: Can achieve a maximum angle of rotation of 95°, which is adjustable by mechanical stops. This feature enables precise control over the movement, making it suitable for applications where accurate positioning is crucial. Whether it's controlling dampers or other mechanical components, the adjustable rotation angle offers flexibility in operation.
Torque: Delivers a minimum torque of 10 Nm (90 in-lb) at nominal voltage, ensuring sufficient power to operate the connected equipment effectively. This torque output allows the actuator to handle various loads with ease, providing reliable performance even in challenging operating conditions.
Running Time: Completes its operation within 150 s, which is a reasonable time frame for many applications. This relatively quick running time ensures efficient operation and timely response to control signals.
Direction of Rotation: The direction of rotation is reversible with a switch, adding to the versatility of the actuator. This feature allows users to change the movement direction as per their specific requirements, making it suitable for a wide range of applications where bidirectional control is needed.
Position Indication: Features a mechanical position indication, which provides a clear and straightforward way to monitor the position of the actuator. This visual feedback is useful for installation, maintenance, and operation, allowing users to quickly assess the status of the actuator at a glance.
Standards Conformity and Safety
EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility): Conforms to the EMC emission standard SS EN 50081-1 and the EMC immunity standard SS EN 50082-1. This ensures that the actuator operates without causing interference to other electrical devices in the vicinity and is also resistant to external electromagnetic disturbances, guaranteeing stable and reliable performance in different electromagnetic environments.
Protection Class: Has a protection class of III, which is Safety extra-low voltage. This provides enhanced safety, reducing the risk of electric shock and making it suitable for use in a variety of settings, including those where safety is a top priority.
Enclosure Rating: The enclosure rating is IP 54, which means it is protected against dust and water splashing from all directions. This makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, even in environments with some exposure to dust and moisture.
Environmental Specifications
Ambient Humidity: Can withstand an ambient humidity of 95% rH as per EN 60730-1. This high humidity tolerance ensures that the actuator can operate reliably in humid environments, such as near water sources or in areas with high moisture content.
Ambient Temperature:
Operation: Can operate in an ambient temperature range of –30…+50 °C (–22…+122 °F), making it suitable for use in a wide variety of climates. Whether it's in cold industrial settings or warm, humid environments, the actuator can function without compromise.
Storage: Can be stored in an ambient temperature range of –40…+80 °C (–40…+176 °F), ensuring the longevity of the product when not in use. This wide storage temperature range allows for convenient storage in different environments.
Sound Power Level: Produces a maximum sound power level of 35 dB (A), which is relatively quiet. This makes it suitable for applications where noise levels need to be kept to a minimum, such as in residential areas or sensitive environments.
Maintenance
The Schneider MD10B - 24 actuator is maintenance-free, which is a significant advantage. It saves both time and cost associated with regular maintenance, making it a hassle-free solution for users. With no need for frequent upkeep, it ensures continuous and reliable operation over its lifespan.
