ELDROdynamic®
EMG ELDROdynamic® Electrohydraulic Thruster
The EMG ELDROdynamic® electrohydraulic thruster is a cutting-edge solution engineered for heavy-duty industrial applications, offering reliable and efficient actuation for braking systems. Designed using the proven hydrodynamic principle, it integrates all hydraulic actuation components into one compact, robust assembly to ensure safe and maintenance-friendly operation under diverse conditions.
Main Features & Benefits
- Wide Application Range: Operates in ambient temperatures from -45°C to +90°C with special equipment options.
- Energy Efficient: Incorporates high-efficiency IE3 motors and optimized pump geometry to reduce power consumption and self-heating.
- Fast Operation: Delivers closing times ≤ 200 ms and stroke times ≤ 700 ms (at 80 mm stroke).
- Modular & Maintenance Friendly: Modular design for ease of service and integration; maintenance intervals are reduced due to wear-free operation.
- High Operational Reliability: Built failsafe, ensuring long service life and consistent performance even with mains voltage fluctuations.
- Flexible Mounting: Base fastening can be rotated by 90°. Pivoting installation is possible to prevent transverse forces.
- Durable Construction: Features redundant sealing systems, chromium-plated piston rods, and robust IP 65 (optionally up to IP 68) enclosures for improved dust and moisture resistance.
- Continuous and Intermittent Duty: Supports continuous operation (S1) and switching operation (S3) of up to 2,000 operations/hour.
- Adjustable Performance: Lifting and/or lowering times can be continuously adjusted by installing valves.
- Easy to Monitor and Upgrade: Can be equipped with pressure sensors, analogue transducers, temperature and force sensors, and evaluation electronics for advanced condition monitoring systems.
