WyeQ+VE Linear Electric Actuator
一、Product Overview
1.1 Short Description
The WyeQ+VE Linear Electric Actuator combines the WyeQ intelligent electric actuator with a VE linear drive unit to provide controlled linear valve movement.
It is designed for applications requiring linear stem travel and is available with rated thrust from 6400 N to 25000 N.
1.2 Product Overview
The WyeQ+VE series converts the rotary output of the WyeQ electric actuator into linear motion through the VE linear drive mechanism.
It is suitable for valve applications where the stem must move in a straight line rather than rotate. The catalog provides four main VE sizes — VE64, VE100, VE160 and VE250 — with different thrust and travel ranges.
The WyeQ control platform also provides intelligent setting, local indication, position feedback and communication functions for industrial valve automation.
