SKP15.000E2 Siemens Actuator

Overview

The Siemens SKP15.000E2 is an electro-hydraulic actuator designed for use with Siemens gas valves. It functions exclusively as a safety shut-off valve (open/closed) for industrial and commercial burner applications. Engineered to open slowly and close rapidly (in less than 0.8 seconds), it provides a critical fail-safe function by utilizing an internal spring-return mechanism that automatically closes the valve upon power interruption.

Features

• Safety shut-off functionality conforming to EN 161 standards when combined with Siemens valves
• 1-stage opening and closing operation with a damped opening stroke to prevent pressure surges
• Low power consumption for high energy efficiency during continuous operation
• Visual position indicator provides clear visibility of the valve stroke through a transparent window
• Versatile mounting allowing the actuator to be rotated 360 degrees for flexible field wiring
• Modular design compatible with a wide range of Siemens VG series gas valve bodies from 1/2-inch to 6-inch sizes
• Maintenance-friendly design allowing for replacement without depressurizing the gas line
