The Regulateurs Europa 2231 actuator is a proportional actuator in which the output shaft position is proportional to the electric input signal. It has been designed for use with the Viking Digital Electronic Control Unit, to provide a complete governing system.
The essential part of the 2231 actuator is the high response electric servomechanism, which overrides the ballhead pilot valve.
In the event of a power failure or controller fault, the governor system will fail to the ballhead mode. Ballhead actuators have backup speed setting options of: -- Lever hand operated
- Lever Morse cable operated
- Synchronous motor 115 / 230V AC or Stepper motor
- Handwheel control
A booster unit can be supplied for applications where minimal start air consumption is required.
