10
User friendly design offers actuator configuration flexibility

SA actuators can be furnished as conventional or non-intrusive actuators

11
SA actuators can be furnished as ‘non-intrusive’ actuators

What is a non-intrusive actuator?

An actuator whose parameters can be set without gaining access

to the inside of the unit.

12
Non-intrusive actuators - 3 ways to set parameters

1. Manipulate local controls

2. Wirelessly via laptop
3. Wirelessly via Windows-based PDA
