ETH Series – Screw Driven Linear Actuator (ATEX)

The ETH electro cylinder closes the gap between pneumatic and hydraulic actuators; it is suitable to replace those in many applications and simultaneously increase the reliability of the production process. Taking the costs for air and oil into consideration, you will find that in most cases an electromechanical system such as the ETH electro cylinder offers the more economical solution. Combined with a wide choice of accessories, it offers many possibilities in a wide variety of fields.

• Unrivaled power density - high forces and small frame sizes
• Cabling can be concealed in the profile
• Accessories with integrated force sensors help to spread and even to control forces precisely
• Optimized for safe handling and simple cleaning
• High service life
• Reduced maintenance costs thanks to lubricating access in the cylinder flange
• Easy replacement due to pneumatic ISO flange norm (DIN ISO 15552:2005-12) conformity
• Integrated anti-rotation device
• Reduced noise emission
• All from one source:
  We offer the complete drive train: Drive controllers, motors and gearboxes to match the Electro Cylinder

Parker Hannifin has expanded its renowned ETH High Force Electro Thrust Cylinder series to include a new version designed for use in explosive atmospheres (ATEX). The ETH ATEX variant retains all the proven benefits of the standard ETH Electro Thrust Cylinder, while delivering precise motion, positioning, setting, and actuation even in hazardous environments.

The ETH ATEX range is ATEX certified for Device Group II, Category 2, suitable for use in explosive gas atmospheres. When combined with Parker’s ATEX-certified EX series servomotors, this solution provides a complete drive package tailored for demanding applications in potentially explosive environments.
