Controls & Accessories
The actuator is the heart of an automation system, but control accessories are important in creating a complete system to meet increasingly sophisticated customer requirements. Solenoid valves and related accessories with NAMUR interfaces provide direct, modular mounting on actuator. Switches, Positioners, Gear Overrides and Lockout Modules can also be integrated into the assembly. AutoBrakits are engineered to assure consistency and proper alignment.
