AE Series – Electric Actuators

AE Series electric actuators are designed to provide a robust, reliable, and cost effective solution for those applications which require a common ball valve or butterfly valve to be electrically actuated. The units come standard with a polycarbonate semi-transparent lid with optional LED lights located on the circuit board for quick visual status of valve position. Extra limit switches, integral electrical relays, and space heaters are also standard on some models (please call for details). With a wide assortment of voltages, dual-voltage units, modulating capability, as well as fast acting and 100% duty cycle solutions, the AE Series is now available to impress!
