The Spirax Sarco Spirax Sarco AEL3 is a stepper motor controlled electric actuator with maintenance free gearbox for use with DN15-DN50 Spira-trol series 2-way valves and DN15-DN50 QL series 3-way valves. Actuators are supplied with 24VAC\/DC as standard, 230VAC or 100-110VAC power modules can be added as required, VMD (valve motor drive), 4-20mA or 0-10Vdc control signals are accepted as standard (24VAC\/DC powered actuators only can accept 2-10Vdc control signals with the addition of a signaling module), and spring extension is available as an option, spring retraction, and no spring options.<\/p>\n
