The ServoCity 12V Heavy-Duty Linear Actuator (112lb Thrust, 0.6"/sec, 6" Stroke) is engineered to deliver robust performance with a dynamic thrust capacity of 115 lbs and a static load capacity of 500 lbs. It operates efficiently within a voltage range of 6V to 12V, featuring a duty cycle of 25% active and 75% inactive. This actuator is equipped with a 10KΩ potentiometer for precise feedback, ensuring a feedback density of 1.66KΩ per inch and a potentiometer linearity of ± 0.25%. The construction includes a metal gear train complemented by a nylon pinion, providing durability and reliability. With an IP54 rating, it offers protection against dust and water ingress, making it suitable for various environments. The actuator's motor is a 3 pole ferrite type, and it utilizes a straight cut spur gearbox with a 20:1 gear ratio. The lead screw is designed with a 3mm pitch and a single thread, contributing to its efficient operation. The actuator weighs 43.3 oz and includes a 24-inch wire length for connectivity. Note: Ensure proper handling to avoid exceeding the specified duty cycle and load capacities.
