Hazardous Location GSX/GSM Class I Division 2

GSX/GSM Linear Actuator
with Class I Division 2 Option

The GSX and GSM linear actuators are available with Class I
Division 2 certification for hazardous locations. A hazardous
location is defined as a place where concentrations of
flammable gases or vapors may occur. Electrical equipment
that must be installed in these locations is designed and
tested to ensure it does not initiate an explosion due to arcing
contacts or high surface temperature of equipment.

The GSX or GSM actuators with this option offer the same
product performance of the standard product offering as
described in the GSX and GSM sections of this catalog.
Please see those sections for performance and
mechanical specifications.

The GSX/M actuators are ideally suited for process Class I, Division 2
control valve and damper applications in harsh
environments. These actuators continuously hold the position
of the valve stem or shaft allowing extremely fast response to
the smallest command signal changes without overshoot
even when friction is present. This results in improved loop
performance and reduced process variability. With linear
speeds up to 40 in/sec and long strokes, the GSX/M actuator
has become a standard replacement for hydraulics on steam
turbine applications.
