Schneider Actuator MD5B-24(-S)

Schneider MD5B - 24(-S) Actuator Product Description Model and Part Numbers The Schneider MD5B - 24(-S) actuator is a reliable and efficient device. It comes with part numbers 875-1005-000 and 875-1007-000, providing flexibility in procurement and identification for different requirements. Power Supply and Consumption Power Supply: This actuator offers remarkable flexibility in power input. It can operate on either 24 V AC with a tolerance of ±20% at a frequency range of 50 - 60 Hz or 24 V DC with a ±20% tolerance. This wide compatibility ensures seamless integration into diverse electrical systems, whether in residential buildings, commercial complexes, or industrial facilities. Power Consumption: During operation, it consumes only 1 W at nominal torque, making it highly energy-efficient. When at rest, the power consumption drops to an even lower 0.2 W, further optimizing energy usage. For transformer sizing, it has a rating of 2.0 VA, which aids in proper electrical planning and installation. Physical and Electrical Features Connection Cable: The actuator comes with a 1 m (3.3 ft) long connection cable featuring 3×0.75 mm² (AWG 18) wires, ensuring a stable and reliable connection. In the case of the version with auxiliary switches (-S), the auxiliary switches also have a 1 m (3.3 ft) cable of the same 规格，facilitating easy integration and connection to the control system. Auxiliary Switch: The auxiliary switch included is a 1×EPU type, capable of handling a current range from 1 mA to 3 (0.5) A and a voltage of 250 V AC. Additionally, the switching point is adjustable from 0 to 100%, providing users with the flexibility to customize the switch's operation according to their specific needs. Angle of Rotation: It can achieve a maximum angle of rotation of 95°, which is adjustable by mechanical stops. This feature allows for precise control over the movement, making it suitable for applications where accurate positioning is crucial, such as in valve control for ventilation or fluid systems. Torque: Delivers a minimum torque of 5 Nm (45 lb-in) at nominal voltage, ensuring sufficient power to operate the connected equipment effectively. This torque output enables 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, enhancing the overall performance of the system it is integrated into. 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 and LVD: Conforms to the EMC standard 2004/108/EC, ensuring that the actuator operates without causing interference to other electrical devices in the vicinity and is also resistant to external electromagnetic disturbances. For the LVD standard 2006/95/EC, it applies specifically to the 230 V version, guaranteeing compliance with low voltage safety requirements. 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 to +50 °C (-22 to +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 to +80 °C (-40 to +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 and Weight Maintenance: The Schneider MD5B - 24(-S) 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. Weight: Weighing approximately 0.6 kg (1.3 lb.), it is relatively lightweight, making it easy to install and handle. This lightweight design also reduces the strain on mounting structures and simplifies transportation. In conclusion, the Schneider MD5B - 24(-S) actuator is a versatile, efficient, and reliable product that offers a combination of performance, safety, and environmental adaptability. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a high-quality actuator for their control applications.
