Linear actuator control box
OpenBus™
LINAK
The most simple and the most advanced control boxes.
The most simple control boxes are only able to convert control signals from the handset into operating voltage for the actuator whereas the most advanced control boxes have functions such as parallel running of several actuators and memory drive. Moreover, the most advanced control boxes are those controlled by microprocessors. These can be delivered with customised software.
Furthermore, some control boxes are designed for connection to the mains, for example, mains voltage of 100, 120 or 230 / 240 V AC for use in different countries; others have an internal or an external battery. Versions with both battery and mains are available too.
Safety features
Most LINAK control boxes are designed to provide Electronic Overload Protection (EOP). This means that it protects the actuator against overload by disconnecting the current when the actuator is fully extended or retracted or if an overload occurs during operation. The control boxes are also designed so that they will short-circuit the motor terminals (poles) when the actuators are not running. This solution gives the actuator a higher self-locking ability.
