Tensor Ex

Fully electronic rotary drive for explosive areas

Advanced drive technology in a robust housing. ARIS actuators of the series Tensor Ex are designed for industrial use in zone 1 hazardous areas. They are used for the actuation of regulating and shut-off valves, e.g. flaps, valves, ball valves, dosing pumps etc., and offer a high safety level. The large number of mounting holes according to ISO 5211 and a change-over shaft system ensure a simple construction on all standard fittings without costly brackets. The drives of Zone 1 are characterized by a high level of intrinsic safety and operational safety.
