The EL120 linear actuator meets ATEX requirements for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and are in conformity with the EU ATEX Directive 94/9/EC as well as the IECEx Scheme. Additionally, it is rated for Class I, Div 1, Groups B, C, D, and T4 hazardous environments.

The EL Series of linear actuators integrate a planetary roller screw mechanism with a high torque servomotor in a single self-contained package.  This design is engineered to provide reliable and precise operation over thousands of hours, handling heavy loads—even under arduous conditions.  

Exlar servo-electromechanical systems offer a simple and cost effective replacement for hydraulic actuation and longer life alternative to pneumatic actuation.
