Model Number E69F-B12
Type Pneumatic Scotch-Yoke Rotary Piston Actuator
Action Double-Acting (The "B" in the model code typically signifies this). Air pressure is required to move the piston in both directions (to open and to close).
Rotation Angle 90° (standard quarter-turn).
Mounting Standardized mounting per ISO 5211 to fit compatible quarter-turn valves.
Performance
Supply Air Pressure Standard Range: 40 - 120 psi (2.8 - 8.3 bar).
Torque Output High Torque. Exact values (in lb-in, lb-ft, or Nm) are dependent on air supply pressure and the specific size "F". Consult the official Actuator Torque Table for precise figures.
Spring Return Option The base "B" model is double-acting. A Spring Return Module (SRM) can often be added to provide fail-safe operation (fail-open, fail-closed).
Physical & Environmental
Manual Override Equipped with a manual handwheel for local operation during maintenance or air supply failure.
Position Indicator Visual mechanical indicator showing "OPEN" and "CLOSED" positions.
Operating Temperature Standard: -20°C to +82°C (-4°F to +180°F), with compatible lubricants.
Accessory Ports Prepared for the mounting of accessories like limit switches, solenoid valves, and positioners.
The FOXBORO E69F-B12 is a rotary piston actuator, specifically an E69 Series "Scotch-Yoke" actuator. It is a pneumatic device designed to automate quarter-turn valves such as ball valves, butterfly valves, and plug valves in process control applications.
