OverviewSM-1700 and SM-5000 electric modulating actuators provide precise positioning for dampers, vanes and valves. Internally geared, they deliver up to 16,950 Nm (12,500 lbf.ft) of torque with continuous modulation. Units include automatic torque limiting and a self-locking drive to hold the last position and prevent backdriving.
