MT4/MT8

Product catalog summary
Application
Small linear actuators are designed for room and zone applications, providing time-controlled two-point and pulse-width modulated (PWM) regulation for heating and cooling systems such as fan coil units, radiators, floor heating systems, chilled ceilings, and convectors. They are compatible with standard M30 x 1.5 heating/cooling valves and thermostatic radiator valves.
Approvals
The actuators have CE and UKCA approvals.
Special Features
  • No mounting tools required due to the valve adapter.
  • Water-protected housing design suitable for all mounting positions.
  • Pluggable cable for easy installation and servicing.
  • Available in normally-open and normally-closed models.
  • Compact design for installation in limited spaces.
  • Visual indicator for valve position and type of action (NO or NC).
  • Noiseless operation and reliable long-term performance.
  • Overload protection (4 kV) for 230 V models.
Technical Data
  • Operating temperatures: Max. medium temperature is 120 °C.
  • Maximum stroke: MT4: 4 mm, MT8: 8 mm.
  • Power supply: MTx-024: 24 V AC/DC ± 20%, MTx-230: 230 V AC +10% ... -15%.
  • Stem force: 90 N.
  • Protection standard: IP44 in all mounting positions.
  • Cable length: 1 m, with other lengths available upon request.
Method of Operation
When operating current is applied, a PTC resistor heats a wax element, causing it to expand and create stroke movement after a delay.
Transportation and Storage
Parts should be kept in their original packaging and unpacked shortly before use. The environment should be clean, dry, and dust-free with a maximum ambient relative humidity of 95%.
Installation Guidelines
  • Connection leads must not touch piping to avoid heat transfer.
  • The position indicator shows the model's type of action and current stroke position.
Technical Characteristics
  • Electrical specifications include initial and permanent current, power consumption, and runtime for full nominal valve stroke.
  • Valve action varies with "typical" and VSxx valves, with normally open and closed configurations.
Dimensions and Ordering Information
Dimensions are provided in mm, and ordering information includes options for normally closed and open models, auxiliary switches, and cable lengths.
Accessories
  • Mounting clips, adapters, and cables are available for various configurations and requirements.

MT4/MT8 - Small linear thermoelectric Actuators Position Indicator When the operating current is applied, a PTC resistor heats up a wax element. After a delay, this wax element expands, causing stroke movement. The position indicator (the red indicator behind the window on the face of the actuator) shows the model's type of action (NO or NC) as well as the current stroke position. TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE Keep parts in their original packaging and unpack them shortly before use. The following parameters apply during transportation and storage: Parameter Environment: Min. ambient temperature:...
