Description
Features
Application
The Flowrite 599 Series SKB/C/D62UA Electronic Valve Actuator requires a 24 Vac
supply and receives a 0 to 10 Vdc or a 4 to 20 mA control signal to proportionally control
a valve. This actuator is designed to work with valves with a 3/4-inch (20 mm) or 1-1/2-
inch (40 mm) stroke.
