SKP15.000E1 Siemens Actuator

Overview

The Siemens SKP15.000E1 is an electro-hydraulic actuator designed for use with gas valves in industrial and commercial combustion systems. Functioning as a safety shut-off (ON/OFF) device, it is engineered to provide a slow opening and a rapid, fail-safe closure in less than 0.8 seconds when power is interrupted. This 1-stage actuator is compatible with a variety of Siemens gas valve bodies, including the VGG, VGD, and VRD series, making it a critical safety component for reliable burner operation.

Features

• Safety shut-off function with rapid-closing spring return
• Damped slow opening to ensure smooth burner ignition
• Integrated hydraulic pump and relief system for reliable operation
• Visual power-on indication via an internal light
• Low power consumption for energy efficiency
• Modular design allows for mounting on valve bodies from 0.5 to 6 inches
• Robust construction suitable for gases of families I through III and air
