KE Series

Quarter-Turn Electric Actuator

Quarter-turn electric actuators engineered for reliable ball and butterfly valve automation. A dome type external position indicator, UV-stable housing and captive bolt design simplify field servicing, while modulating control and watertight options extend the range into demanding process and outdoor applications.

Key Features
A

Dome Type Indicator

Open and close status can be checked even from a long distance through the external position indicator.

B

UV-Stable Intermediate Cap

Even after long periods of usage and exposure to sunlight, the plastic cap's letters remain clear and visible.

C

Captive Bolt

Prevents the bolt from being lost even when the cover is opened for wiring.

D

Accessible Terminal Box

Easy and safe wiring by opening only the terminal box — no need to disassemble the entire actuator body (except KE001/KE002).

E

Modulating Control Option

4–20mA, 0–10V, 2–10V, 1–5V and 0–5V signal support for proportional valve positioning.

F

Watertight Option

IP68-rated watertight option available, tested to 5m submersion for 120 hours.

G

Wide Torque Range

8 to 1200 Nm across the KE series covers small instrumentation valves through heavy-duty industrial applications.

H

Multi-Voltage Support

110V, 220V, 380V and 440V AC plus 24V DC options across the range for flexible installation.
