2.2 Product Description
Your L120-85 actuator controls the opening and closing travel of
valves or other actuated devices. OPEN and CLOSED limits are
protected by Limit Switches and output torque is measured and
protected by the Torque Switches. As a result, all valves and other
actuated devices are protected from potential damage from overload,
improper seating and foreign obstructions.
Limitorque actuators may be mounted on any appropriately sized
valve in almost any position or location.
Microprocessor-based controls and monitoring devices are also
available for installation on your actuator. Contact your local Limi-
torque distributor or Limitorque sales office for further information.
