AC6A1CD Fireye Actuator

Overview

The Fireye AC6A1CD is a high-performance AC Series rotary actuator designed for precise control in burner and valve systems. This keypad-programmable, direct-coupled modulating motor is engineered to regulate process temperatures by connecting to butterfly valve stems or air/gas dampers. It features an integrated seven-segment LED display and a membrane keypad that allows for local manual positioning and parameter adjustment. The AC6A1CD is specifically configured for upright mounting (standard) where wire connections are located at the bottom of the unit.

Features

• Solid-state electronics for reliable, long-term operation.
• Keypad programmable with a 4-position orientation for flexible mounting.
• Integrated LED display for real-time position and direction of travel indication.
• Versatile input options including 4-20mA, 0-10Vdc, and isolated digital switch inputs.
• Two auxiliary contacts included for position feedback or interlocking.
• Selectable clockwise or counterclockwise rotation to match valve requirements.
• NEMA 4 construction provides protection against environmental factors.

Applications

The Fireye AC6A1CD is primarily used for the modulation of air and gas dampers or butterfly valves in industrial and commercial combustion systems. It is commonly found in oil and gas, petrochemical, and power generation industries. It serves as a direct replacement for Eclipse PRA6A1CD actuators and is typically used in conjunction with electronic controls to maintain stable process temperatures by accurately positioning fuel and air flow valves.
