2 Design
Quarter turn actuators of the DAPS series are compact in design and have simple
and robust mechanics with little wear and tear. The design of the product is de-
pendent on the product design and may differ from the representation shown in
Fig. 1 (
Fig. 1).
Through the housing, a shaft is guided outward on both sides. Through this, the
reaction torque is transmitted to a process valve (
Fig. 1, 6 ) and, if applicable,
a limit switch or sensor box ( Fig. 1, 1 ).
The flange to the process valve is normally designed in accordance with ISO 5211
(
section 12). Four mounting threads on the top are used for mechanical attach-
ment of a limit switch or sensor box ( Fig. 1, 3 ). The housing side has a hole
pattern for valve attachment in accordance with VDI/VDE 3845 (NAMUR).
The housing of some quarter turn actuators has, on the process valve port side, a
leakage groove (
Fig. 1, 9 ) through which the leakage of an untight process
valve can escape.
The product is available in various designs. Depending on the version, the DAPS is
designed as a single-acting or double-acting quarter turn actuator. The single-act-
ing design with spring return is available with different spring strengths for various
supply pressures.

3 Function
The piston movement of the DAPS is converted to a rotary movement by means of
yoke kinematics (Scotch yoke). These kinematics are only effective within an angle
of approx. 90°.
For double-acting quarter turn actuators:
Pressurising and venting of the cylinder chambers
cause the piston in the DAPS to move back and forth.
The
linear motion of the piston is transformed into a swiv-
el motion of the transmission shaft.
Fig. 3
For single-acting quarter turn actuators:
Return is through spring force.
Product designs with different spring strengths are
available (
Fig. 2).
Fig. 4
The screwed-on processing valve absorbs the reaction torque of the quarter turn
actuator. The torques permitted in accordance with the technical data
(
catalogue www.festo.com/catalogue) apply here.
4 Application
The DAPS quarter turn actuator is intended to activate right-closing process
valves, such as ball valves and butterfly valves with a rotation angle from 0° (valve
closed) to 90° (valve open).
It is completely tailored to the requirements of the processing industry and is suit-
able for control of media-flow process valves in fluid engineering systems.
5 Transport and storage
Ensure the following storage conditions: short storage times in cool, dry, shaded
and corrosion-resistant locations.
Warning
Danger of crushing! Danger of shearing!
The DAPS weighs up to about 183 kg, depending on the product version.
Body parts can be crushed or cut off if the product falls.
• For product versions weighing more than 12 kg, always use appropriate load-
carrying equipment in order to handle the product safely during transport and
assembly.
6 Requirements for product use
Note
Incorrect handling can result in malfunctions.
• Make sure that all the instructions in this section are always observed. The
product will then function correctly and safely.
• Compare the limit values specified in these operating instructions with your
actual application (e.g. pressures, forces, torques, masses, speeds, temperat-
ures). The product can be operated in compliance with the relevant safety
guidelines only if the load limits are observed.
• Ensure that all applicable regulations for your location are adhered to, e.g. of
the trade association or national institutions.
