Product Description
The 8404-201 from Woodward’s ProAct™ series is a compact analog electric actuator engineered for precise rotary control of butterfly valves, fuel racks, and throttle levers in engines and turbines. By integrating the actuator mechanism with driver electronics in a single unit, it eliminates the need for hydraulic systems, reducing maintenance complexity and overall installation footprint.
Using Limited Angle Torque (LAT) motor technology, the 8404-201 ensures rapid response and high-precision positioning, suitable for demanding industrial and power generation applications. Its rugged construction allows operation across wide environmental conditions, making it reliable in harsh industrial settings.
