SuperCap Failsafe Actuator
Introduction:
Our SuperCap Fail-Safe Actuator is specifically designed for applications requiring emergency valve operation in the event of a sudden power loss. Utilizing supercapacitor energy storage, the actuator continuously charges during normal AC power supply operation and functions like a standard on-off actuator, fully opening or closing the valve as needed. In the event of a power failure, it automatically executes a pre-configured fail-safe action, ensuring the valve moves to its designated fully open or fully closed position. This advanced technology enhances safety and reliability, providing critical protection for life, assets, and infrastructure.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Dual Functionality:
Can be used as a standard on-off actuator for normal operation, with the ability to remain in fully open or fully closed positions. -
Emergency Operation:
In case of a power outage, the actuator follows pre-set configurations to automatically open or close the valve, ensuring safety and preventing hazards such as fire or gas leaks. -
Superior to Spring-Return Actuators:
Compared to traditional spring-return mechanisms, supercapacitor return actuators provide stable torque output, a compact design, and a cost-effective solution, making them a practical and affordable alternative. -
High-Performance Motor:
Equipped with a BLDC (brushless DC) motor, ensuring exceptional durability, efficiency, and long service life. -
Energy Efficiency:
When idle, the actuator consumes only 3W of power, making it environmentally friendly and energy-saving. -
Ultra-Wide Voltage Compatibility:
Supports a broad voltage range (AC18V – AC260V), offering high operational safety and convenience for various power supply conditions. -
Reliable Supercapacitor Energy Storage:
Uses supercapacitors for energy storage, ensuring high reliability without failure from overcharging or deep discharge. -
Extended Lifespan:
Supercapacitors have an exceptionally long service life and high cycle count, significantly reducing maintenance requirements.
AOITEC's supercapacitor return actuators combine speed, reliability, efficiency, and compact design, making them a highly effective solution for industrial valve automation.

Instructions and Reminders for Use
Wiring Setup:
The wiring method remains consistent with the configuration below, ensuring ease of installation.
Special Notes:
1.On initial power-up after wiring, operation may take several seconds—this is normal, not a malfunction.
2.Customers can choose between two power outage modes when placing an order:
1)Default Option: Valve closes during a power outage.
2)Alternate Option: Valve opens during a power outage.
