1.0. Introduction
Aeromatic sells a wide range of pneumatic servo drive units wit rack and pinion gearing. T ey are
designed for actuating industrial fittings for liquid media and gases suc as ballcocks or s ut-off valves.
T eir power is best supplied by oiled compressed air. T e minimum service life as been tested at 1
million switc cycles. T e initial greasing of t e servo drive units is sufficient for 500,000 switc cycles if
t e units are used for t eir intended purpose. T e pneumatic servo drive units are available in a double-
action version (wit out reset springs) wit a swing angle of 90° (120°, 130° and 180° to order) and as a
single-action version (reset by spring force) wit a swing angle of 90°.
2.0. Storage
All pneumatic servo drive units are supplied ready-greased. T e compressed air connections are
protected from t e ingress of water or ot er materials during storage and transport by sealing plugs.
T e servo drive units s ould be stored in an enclosed room to prevent armful environmental influences.
If t e servo drive units are stored for a lengt y period before installation, t ey must be actuated at

3.0. Function characteristics
T e pneumatic servo drive units ave t e function c aracteristics s own in Figures 1A-1B-1C-1D / 1E-1F-
1G-1H. Compressed air connection A (2) is connected wit t e ollow c amber between t e pistons and
compressed air connection B (4) is connected wit t e external ollow c ambers between t e pistons
and t e side covers. T e servo drive units are supplied as standard wit an octagon socket on t e output
side in w ic eit er an octagonal s aft or a square s aft can be fitted in any configuration (45° or 90°).
To order t e servo drive units can also be supplied wit t e output versions listed below.
T e compressed air connection can be made direct at t e compressed air connections or t roug control
valves wit a NAMUR connection.
Double-action servo drive units (wit out reset springs)
If compressed air is supplied to compressed air connection A (2), t e pistons move outwards as far as
possible up to t e stroke limiting pin and t e drive pinion moves in a 90° swing movement. W en
compressed air is supplied to connection B (4), t e outer c ambers of t e drive ousing are filled wit
compressed air and t e pistons returned to t eir initial positions. T e drive pinion returns to its original
position t roug a 90° swing movement.
Single-action servo drive units ( wit reset springs)
If compressed air is supplied to compressed air connection A (2), t e pistons move outwards as far as
possible up to t e stroke limiting pin w ic tensions t e reset springs. W en t e compressed air supply
at compressed air connection A (2) is switc ed off, t e pistons are pus ed back to t eir original positions
by t e tensioned springs. If t e servo drive units also ave a stroke limit for t e inner position of t e
pistons (initial position), t ey move back to t e initial position as far as possible up to t at limit.
4.0. Installation
Important safety information
During installation, t e drive unit must be depressurised for safety reasons. W en connecting t e air to
t e drive unit, ensure extreme cleanliness, wit t e t read connections, screw connections and seals, in
particular, being clean and dirt-free. If you install accessories on t e drive unit, ensure t at t e top end
of t e s aft remains clear so t at if it needs to be controlled manually at a later date, t is is possible.
Before you install t e drive unit on a fitting, ensure t at t e fitting is in t e correct initial position
depending on t e required direction of rotation.
T e servo drives are designed to ensure easy, straig tforward installation. T ey ave ISO 511 (DIN 333/9)
interfaces to connect fittings, signal units and control units. If t e appropriate fittings are used, t ey are
suitable for direct installation and also for installation on fittings wit a s aft adapter and installation
bridge.
