ENGINEERING DATA: SERIES RL ROTARY ACTUATORS

PRESSURE AND BREAKAWAY RATINGSAll Series RL Rotary Actuators have a maximum pressure

rating of 150 psi [10 bar] with a 5 psi [0.3 bar] breakaway pressure.They are for pneumatic application only.

OPERATING TEMPERATURESStandard Series RL Rotary Actuators are recommended for use

in temperatures from -20° to +180°F [-28° to +82°C]. Consult PHDfor operation at temperatures outside this range.

LUBRICATIONAll units are pre-lubricated at assembly for operation with

non-lubricated air. Service life can be extended by periodiclubrication of the rack and pinion with high grade bearing greaseand by using lubricated air.

ANGLE OF ROTATIONStandard angles of rotation are 45°, 90°, 135°, 180°, 225°, and

270°. Consult PHD for other rotation requirements. All units withoptional angle adjustments provide 90° of total angle adjustment.

ROTATIONAL TOLERANCEThe total rotational tolerance of the Series RL Rotary Actuator

is +10°, -0° on specified rotation.

PHD Cushions allow smooth deceleration at the end of rotation.When a cushion is activated, the remaining volume of air in theexhaust side of the actuator is expelled through an adjustable needlevalve, controlling the rate of deceleration of the pinion shaft. Theeffective cushion length is approximately 40° at the end of fullnominal rotation. See pages 3A-14 through 3A-15 for informationon unit stopping capacity.

Cushion performance will not be realized on units of 45° orless due to 40° of effective cushion length.

The -GS, -GT, and -GU options should only be ordered if theshock absorber(s) is to be supplied separately from the rotaryactuator. These options make provisions for the installation ofhydraulic shock absorbers but do not include the shock absorberunits. They include the shock sealing kit for each direction ordered.See pages 3A-14 through 3A-15 for details of stopping capacity withbuilt-in shock absorbers.

NOTE: The shock absorber also provides rotation adjustment.Shock absorbers must be installed in the rotary actuator body priorto operating the unit. Operation without shock absorbers can

damage the actuator and void the warranty. Only shock absorbersspecified by PHD should be used in Series RL Rotary Actuators. Theuse of any other shock absorbers will adversely affect actuatorperformance and service life.

NOTE: The torque required to install Trantorque adaptors exceeds the maximum value that can be safely applied to the rack and pinionassembly of Series RL Rotary Actuators. The tooling or component attached to the Trantorque adaptor must be constrained, to avoidexcessive loading on the pinion gear, while the nut is being tightened to the torque specified above. Failure to follow this procedure willresult in damage to the actuator.

3) Determine the stopping capacity of the actuator by using theequation given below.

a) Determine the rotational velocity by using equation A.

To select the appropriate RL rotary actuator, it is crucial to considerseveral factors including bearing capacity, torque requirements andstopping capacity of the actuator. The bearing capacities are listedon page 3A-6. To determine the required torque to rotate the load ina given time, the rotational mass moments of inertia, gravity, timeand acceleration must be taken into account. To stop an actuator, allof the same required information for torque is needed plus kineticenergy. Follow the steps below to select the appropriate RL actuator.

1) Review pages 3A-6 to make sure RL rotary actuator bearingscan withstand axial and radial bearing loads.

2) Determine the torque requirements of the actuator.

a) Determine Mass Moment of Inertia.Select the illustration from the application types on thefollowing page that most resembles your specificapplication. Several separate calculations may benecessary to fully describe your application. Using theappropriate application equation, calculate the massmoment of inertia for each type of illustration. The totalmass moment of inertia will be the sum of the individualcalculations.

b) Determine the necessary acceleration.

c) Calculate the required torque.Select the illustration from the application types on thefollowing page that most resembles your specificapplication. Several separate calculations may benecessary to fully describe your application. Using theappropriate application equation, calculate the massmoment of inertia for each type of illustration. The totaltorque will be the sum of the individual calculations.Note: Torque calculations are theoretical, an appropriatesafety factor should be considered. PHD recommends aminimum safety factor of 2 to account for friction loss,airline and valve size, and attached accessories.

BENEFITS

■ Series RA Rotary Actuators are available in five sizes and sixstandard rotations with torques ranging to 150 in-lb at 100 psi[17 Nm at 7 bar] to cover a wide range of applications.

■ All units have zero backlash at ends of rotation for preciserotary positioning.

■ The high strength steel alloy rack and one-piece pinion shaftare designed and tested to operate for a minimum of 10 millionmaintenance-free cycles.

■ Free floating pistons with pressure and wear compensatingseals provide long life and low friction with a 5 psi [0.3 bar]breakaway pressure.

■ Oversize sealed ball bearings and large pinion shaftsensure shaft stability under heavy loading and high loadstopping ability.

■ Built-in standard angle adjustments, of +10°, -45° on eachnominal angle rotation, make it easy to adjust to specificrotation requirements. This provides a total range of actuatorrotations from 0° to 280°. (+5° -22-1/2° from each end)

■ Mounting patterns on three surfaces provide flexibility indesign and unit mounting.

■ Units with rotations of 180° or less have all controladjustments and ports on top of the actuator saving space andeasing accessibility.

■ Optional built-in hydraulic shock absorbers provide smoothdeceleration of external loads and allow for greater loadstopping capacity.

■ Optional built-in flow controls save space and provide constantand accurate control of the rotation speed.

■ Optional built-in adjustable cushions reduce end-of-rotationshock and increase the unit's stopping capacity.

■ Optional hubbed pinion shaft provides a flat mounting surfacewith a four bolt pattern for easy mounting of tooling andaccessories to the actuator's shaft.

■ Miniature PHD Proximity Switches mount easily into slots inthe actuator's body for interfacing with an electrical controller.Units can be specified for use with PHD’s Miniature Reed orHall Effect Switches.

■ Series RA Rotary Actuators are available in both metricand imperial versions allowing flexibility in design for aworld market.

PRESSURE AND BREAKAWAY RATINGSAll Series RA Rotary Actuators have a maximum pressure

rating of 150 psi [10 bar] with a 5 psi [0.3 bar] breakaway pressure.They are for pneumatic application only.

OPERATING TEMPERATURESStandard Series RA Rotary Actuators are recommended for use

in temperatures from -20° to +180°F [-28° to +82°C]. Consult PHDfor temperatures beyond this range.

LUBRICATIONAll units are permanently lubricated at assembly for service

using non-lubricated air. Life can be extended by periodic lubricationof the rack and pinion using high grade bearing grease and by usinglubricated air.

BACKLASHAll units have 0 degrees of backlash at ends of rotation.

ANGLE OF ROTATIONStandard angles of rotation are 45°, 90°, 135°, 180°, 225°, and

270°. Consult PHD for other rotation requirements. All units havebuilt-in angle adjustments providing +10°, -45°.

ROTATIONAL TOLERANCEThe total rotational tolerance of the Series RA Rotary Actuator

is +10°, -0° on the nominal specified rotation.

ROTATIONAL RATESThe average speed of rotation for units with no load is 180°

in .05 second for 20 mm, 25 mm, and 32 mm bore units, 180° in.06 second for 40 mm bore units, and 180° in .075 second for50 mm bore units.

CONTROLSControl of pinion shaft speed is extremely important as inertia

force is a function of rotational speed and distance from load tooutput shaft center. PHD's built-in flow controls, cushions, andshock absorbers should be considered when inertial loads areapplied. See pages 3B-8 through 3B-10 for information on SeriesRA Rotary Actuator controls. See pages 3B-12 through 3B-13 forinformation on load stopping capacity.

STANDARD ANGLE ADJUSTMENTAll PHD Series RA Rotary Actuators are supplied as standard with

built-in adjustable angle stops. Together these mechanical positivestops provide an adjustment range of +10°, -45° on each nominal angleof rotation (see Table 1). (+5°, -22-1/2° from each end.)

Units with rotations of 180° or less utilize adjusting screws in thetop of the actuator which stop against a stop cam attached to the pinionshaft (see Illustration A). Units with rotations of 225° and 270° useangle adjustment screws located in the end caps which stop against theauxiliary lower rack (see Illustration B). When 225° or 270° units areordered with optional shock absorbers, the shock absorbers double asthe angle adjustment screws.

The ability to adjust over such a wide range eliminatesthe need to order special units for specific angles of rotation. The rangeof nominal rotations and the +10°, -45° adjustments provide a totalrotation range of 0° to 280° across the Series RA Rotary Actuator line.

PHD Port Control® is a built-in flow control valve for controllingthe speed through complete shaft rotation. The Port Control® isbased on the “meter-out” principle and features an adjustable needlein a cartridge with an external check seal. The self-locking needlehas micrometer threads and is adjustable under pressure. Itdetermines the orifice size which controls the exhaust flow rate ofthe actuator. The check seal expands while air is exhausting fromthe actuator, forcing the air to exhaust past the adjustable needle.The check seal collapses to allow a free flow of incoming air. ThePHD Port Control® saves space and eliminates the cost of fittingsand installation for external flow control valves.

NOTE: Port Control may not be effective below operatingpressures of 10 psi [.7 bar].

DB CUSHION BOTH DIRECTIONS

DC CUSHIONCOUNTERCLOCKWISE DIRECTION

CUSHIONCLOCKWISE DIRECTION

PHD Cushions allow for smooth deceleration at the end ofrotation. When the cushion operates, the remaining volume of air inthe actuator must exhaust past an adjustable needle, which controlsthe deceleration of the pinion shaft. The effective length of thecushion is approximately 40° of rotation at the end of full nominalrotation. The use of angle adjustment screws to reduce the angle ofrotation has a direct effect on the length of cushion engagement.Example: 5° of angle reduction on one end will reduce cushionengagement by 5° on that end of rotation. See pages 3B-12 through3B-13 for information on unit stopping capacity with adjustablecushions.

To select the appropriate RA rotary actuator, it is crucial to considerseveral factors including bearing capacity, torque requirements andstopping capacity of the actuator. The bearing capacities are listedon page 3B-6. To determine the required torque to rotate the load ina given time, the rotational mass moments of inertia, gravity, timeand acceleration must be taken into account. To stop an actuator, allof the same required information for torque is needed plus kineticenergy. Follow the steps below to select the appropriate RAactuator.

1) Review pages 3B-6 to make sure RA rotary actuator bearingscan withstand axial and radial bearing loads.

2) Determine the torque requirements of the actuator.

a) Determine Mass Moment of Inertia.Select the illustration from the application types on thefollowing page that most resembles your specificapplication. Several separate calculations may benecessary to fully describe your application. Using theappropriate application equation, calculate the massmoment of inertia for each type of illustration. The totalmass moment of inertia will be the sum of the individualcalculations.

b) Determine the necessary acceleration.

c) Calculate the required torque.Select the illustration from the application types on thefollowing page that most resembles your specificapplication. Several separate calculations may benecessary to fully describe your application. Using theappropriate application equation, calculate the massmoment of inertia for each type of illustration. The totaltorque will be the sum of the individual calculations.Note: Torque calculations are theoretical, an appropriatesafety factor should be considered. PHD recommends aminimum safety factor of 2 to account for friction loss,airline and valve size, and attached accessories.

■ Two bore sizes, single and double rack, air-oil tandem, and 3position models are offered for a wide range of applicationrequirements.

■ Standard external angle adjustments provide easy adjustmentof rotation between 0 and 180°.

■ Zero backlash at ends of rotation provide precise positioning ofattached load.

■ One piece pinion gear with sealed ball bearings give maximumoutput shaft support, low friction, and long unit life.

■ Built-in flow controls are standard on most models for precisecontrol of rotation speed.

■ Optional Hall Effect Sensor/Set Point Module is available forsensing multiple position throughout rotation.

OPERATING PRINCIPLEThe PHD Three Position Rotary Actuator yields three output

shaft positions. Both the extreme positions and the midposition canbe adjusted in the field allowing a total rotation from 0° to 180° withthe midpoint anywhere between. Pressurizing port C provides fullcounterclockwise rotation (position I). Pressurizing ports B1 and B2

at the same time causes the unit to rotate to position II and to holdat that position. The racks are trapped by the piston and rods (B1

and B2) and hold the pinion from rotating, creating the positivemidposition. The midpoint adjustment stops allow the midpoint tobe set by changing the lengths that each piston and rod can stroke.Position III is obtained by pressurizing port A driving the pinionshaft to a full clockwise position.

Output positions can be selected in any sequence allowing theactuator to stop at or pass by the midposition.

OUTPUT TORQUES TO 31,800 in-lb [3595 Nm]

BENEFITS

■ PHD Series 1000-8000 Rotary Actuators are pneumatically orhydraulically powered providing output torques up to31,800 in-lb [3595 Nm].

■ Rugged design and construction makes these actuators idealfor heavy duty service in tough working environments.

■ Four bore sizes are available in single and double rack modelswith standard rotations from 45° to 450°.

■ Free floating pistons with rack and pinion design eliminatesbinding for low breakaway and long unit life.

■ Sealed shaft ball bearings provide long life and maximum shaftstability for heavy payloads.

■ Available with a wide range of options including built-in flowcontrols, cushions, angle adjustments, shock pads, and pinionshaft options for specifying the exact actuator for yourapplication.

■ Simple construction allows easy field repairability.

AIR/OIL TANDEM ROTARY ACTUATORS:SERIES 2000-8000

A

B

OPERATING PRINCIPLEThis feature is available on Series 2000, 4000, 6000,

and 8000. One end functions as a control member only,reducing the effective output torque to match 1000, 3000,5000, and 7000 respectively.

The illustration shows a Tandem Actuator with built-inPort Controls®, crossover manifold and oil reservoir. Thelatter serves as an accumulator to compensate for oilvolume changes due to temperature variation.

NOTE: The Reservoir should have 20 psi [1.3 bar]pressure at all times to ensure the system remains purged.

OUTPUT TORQUES TO 1,590 in-lb [179 Nm]

BENEFITS

■ PHD Air/Oil Tandem Actuators provide smooth consistentrotary motion even at low speeds for applications requiringpositive control of payload.

■ Design provides simplicity and economics of air power with thesmooth control of hydraulics.

■ Oil transfer is accomplished through a one-piece tandem capeliminating external crossovers.

■ Four bore sizes are available in both 2 and 3 position modelswith standard rotations up to 450° to fit a variety ofapplication requirements.

■ Built-in flow controls are standard for precise control ofrotation speed.

■ Free floating pistons with rack and pinion design eliminatebinding for low breakaway and long unit life.

■ Sealed shaft ball bearings provide long life and maximum shaftstability for heavy payloads.

■ Available with a wide range of options including cushions,angle adjustments, shock pads, and pinion shaft options forspecifying the exact actuator for your application.

■ Simple construction allows easy field repairability.

OPERATING PRINCIPLEPHD Rotary Actuators and Multi-Motion Actuators

can be provided to yield three, four, or five output shaftpositions. The intermediate angle increments are fixed asspecified and only the extreme positions can be adjustedin the field.

Units are available for air or hydraulic service. Theschematic example shows a five position rotary actuator.Pressurizing Port E provides full counter clockwiserotation (Position I). Pressurizing Ports D1 and D2 trapsthe rack between the rod ends of the two outer pistons Xand Y to rotate output shaft to Position II. PressurizingPorts C1 and C2 moves floating pistons in the inside uppercylinders against stop tubes to trap the rack in Position III.Similarly, Positions IV and V can be obtained bypressurizing Ports B1, B2 and A respectively.

Output positions can be selected in any sequenceallowing the actuator to stop at, or pass, any of theintermediate positions (II, III, or IV).

BENEFITS

■ PHD Multi-Position Rotary Actuators are offered in3, 4, or 5 output shaft positions ideal for feeding andpositioning applications.

■ Multiple positioning design eliminates expensive andcumbersome fixturing and pinning.

■ PHD Multi-Position Actuators are pneumatically orhydraulically powered providing output torques up to15,900 in-lb [1797 Nm].

■ Four bore sizes are available with extreme position rotation upto 450° to fit a variety of requirements.

■ Free floating pistons with rack and pinion design eliminatebinding for low breakaway and long unit life.

■ Sealed shaft ball bearings provide long life and maximum shaftstability for heavy payloads.

■ Available with a wide range of options including built-in flowcontrols, cushions, shock pads, and pinion shaft optionsspecifying the exact actuator for your application.

■ Simple construction allows easy field repairability.

3C-29SOLUTIONS FORINDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION CAT-03

RATINGSAll pneumatic rotary actuators have a maximum pressure rating of

150 psi [10 bar] air. Most hydraulic rotary actuators have a maximumpressure rating of 1500 psi [100 bar]. Except as noted in chart below.*

Minimum factor of safety at maximum rated hydraulic pressure foroutput shaft is 2:1, and for hydraulic chambers is 3:1. Consult PHD forproof pressure data.

BREAKAWAYAll RxxA units will breakway at 20 psi [1.4 bar]. RxxH units will

breakway at 40 psi [2.8 bar]. All tandem RxxR units will breakaway at 40psi [2.8 bar]. 018x air units will breakaway at 20 psi [1.4 bar], 018xtandem units will breakaway at 30 psi [2.1 bar].

TEMPERATURE LIMITS AND FLUIDSRotary Actuator units are equipped with Buna-N piston seals

suitable for use in temperatures ranging from -20° to +180°F[-28° to 82°C] and may be used with air, water, petroleum-basedhydraulic fluid, or fuel oil.

Seals for other fluids or temperature requirements are available, butmust be specified. All Rotary Actuators have teflon back-up rings foruniversal use (except Miniature Rotary Actuators Series 018x).

NOTE: For applications where water-based fluids are used, the unitsmust be modified. Consult PHD for specifications.

LUBRICATIONGear racks and pinion are lubricated at the factory and may never

need lubrication. However, if lubrication should be needed due to adverseconditions, use high grade bearing grease.

NOTE: Port for grease nipple provided in top of actuator body.Lubricate only while ports are pressurized except on 018x75 and 018x50,which have no lube ports.

Approximately 1/2 in3 [8 cm3] of grease is sufficient for any seriesactuator, each 250,000 cycles of 360° duration.

ENGINEERING DATA: SERIES 1000-8000 ROTARY ACTUATORSCONTROLS

Rotary Actuator units are operated by directional valves in the samemanner as air and hydraulic cylinders.

Control of piston speeds is extremely important as inertia force is afunction of rotational speed and distance from load to output shaft center.

ANGLE OF ROTATIONSeries 1000-8000 Rotary Actuators are furnished in 6 stock angles:

45°, 90°, 180°, 270°, 360°, and 450°. Other angles are available asspecified.

Series 018x Miniature Rotary Actuators are all furnished with 180°rotation, but can be adjusted anywhere from 180° to 0°.

TOTAL ROTATIONALTOLERANCES & BACKLASH

**Rotational position from one intermediate position to another(measured at centers of backlash).

NOTE: 3 position and 5 position have 0° backlash at ends of rotation.4 position will have up to stated figure at ends of rotation.

MULTI-POSITION MID-POSITIONTOLERANCES & BACKLASH

*Double rack actuators are available with 0° backlash at ends ofrotation, if -A option is used.

Total rotational tolerance may be on both or either sides of mid-rotation minimum.

START-UP PROCEDURE: SERIES 1000-8000 ACTUATORSROTARY ACTUATORS

CAUTION: Angular velocity and deceleration of actuators arenormally controlled with Port Control® valves and cushions.

At start-up, the actuator cylinders are often empty or notpressurized. To prevent damage due to lack of governing mediaand to assure a controlled start-up, the following procedure shouldbe used.

1. After installation of actuator and auxiliary tooling (arms, jaws,fixtures, etc.), manually turn output shaft fully clockwise priorto start up. Actuator should be started-up with typical workpiece or load.

2. Apply pressure to rotary chamber in same direction as shaft isturned (clockwise port).

3. Apply pressure to opposite port and slowly open speed controlvalve governing counterclockwise direction. This will allow theactuator to rotate under control. Follow the same procedure inopposite direction. Several cycles may be needed to obtainproper speed adjustment.

4. On units with adjustable cushions, set needle adjustment foroptimum effectiveness to minimize shock at end of rotation.

AIR/OIL TANDEM ROTARY ACTUATORS1. Mount Reservoir “A” vertically above actuator hydraulic

section. (Approximately 12 feet [3.6 m] of flexible tubing hasbeen provided to allow reservoir to be mounted in convenientlocation.) Excess may be coiled up or cut off. Shortening oftube should take place by disconnecting tube from tank takingcare that minimum amount is allowed to drain from reservoirand that tube is kept full of oil at all times. A small air bubblemay form at end of tube when reassembled. This is notdetrimental and will disappear during operation of actuator.

2. Provide constant air supply regulated to 20 psi [1.3 bar] toport B on reservoir.

3. Apply air pressure to reservoir. Next, LOOSEN (do not remove)drain plug C. Allow oil to drain until level reaches line E.Retighten plug securely.

4. If actuator is equipped with cushions, open needle valvesmarked D approximately 1/8 turn.

5. Follow same procedure with port control needles marked P.

6. Air pressure may now be applied to actuator. Take care to keepclear from any tooling attached to the actuator shaft as it maystart rotating.

7. Adjust control needles to achieve proper velocities (anddecelerations).

8. Bleed plug G must not be loosened or removed as actuator willlose oil charge.

OPTIONS: SERIES 1000-8000 ROTARY ACTUATORS

P PORT CONTROL®

The “built-in” speed control valve.The exclusive PHD Port Control®, based on the “meter-out”

principle, features an adjustable needle and a separate ball check.Both are built into the rotary actuator end cap and are used tocontrol the speed of the actuator over its entire rotation.

D ADJUSTABLE CUSHIONS

PHD Cushions are designed for smooth deceleration at the endof rotation. When the cushion is activated, the remaining volume inthe cylinder must exhaust past an adjustable needle which controlsthe amount of deceleration. Effective cushion length isapproximately 30° of rotation, except on the 8000 Tandem whichhas 20° of cushion length.

Cushions on Series 2000, 4000, 6000 and 8000 are furnishedon one of two racks only.

Fits all PHD Series 1000-8000, except when ordering hollowshafts. Isolates internal or external pressures. Maximum pressuredifferential is 500 psi [34.4 bar]. Furnished installed on actuator only(both sides). Covers are made of hard anodized aluminum. Not to beused as a pilot.

G SHAFT SEAL COVERSNot available on Rx6x and Rx9x models

SHOCK PADS

Polyurethane pads for absorption of shock and noise areavailable on each end of Series 1000-8000 Rotary Actuators.Reducing shock permits higher piston velocities for shorter cycletimes. Reducing noise levels provides improved environment forincreased productivity. Pads eliminate metal-to-metal contactbetween piston and end caps. NOTE: Air application only.

B

Adjusting screw(s) for reducing angle of rotation in either orboth directions for use where exact degree of desired rotationcannot be predetermined or where requirements may vary duringoperation. Standard adjusting screw will reduce angle of rotation upto 30°. Available in conjunction with all other optional features.

Cushions are normally engaged over the last 30° of angle. Theuse of angle adjusting screws to reduce angle of rotation has adirect effect on the length of cushion engagement. Example: 10°angle reduction will reduce cushion engagement by 10°. Angleadjustments are standard on all Multi-Position Rotary Actuators.

The self-locking needle has micrometer threads and isadjustable under pressure. It determines the orifice size whichcontrols the exhaust volume only of the actuator proper. Theseparate ball check is closed while fluid is exhausting from theactuator, but opens to permit full flow of incoming fluids. The PHDPort Control® provides the optimum in speed control for rotaryactuators. It saves space and eliminates the cost of fittings andinstallation for external flow control valves.

The PVA functions as a built-in pneumatic limit switch. An airpressure signal is provided at the end-of-piston travel as the pistonseal uncovers an orifice in the block. Upon reversal of piston travel,the pilot pressure is shut off and the pilot line is vented through therotary actuator housing.

Air pilot signal is provided approximately .03 inch [1 mm] priorto end of piston travel (or 10 to 15 degrees prior to end of rotation).For pneumatic use only.

PVA ports are located in position 1 unless otherwise specified.Not available in conjunction with angle adjustment -A option.

PRESSURE AND BREAKAWAY RATINGSAll Series RI Rotary Actuators have a maximum pressure rating

of 100 psi [7 bar] with a 5 psi [0.3 bar] breakaway pressure. Theyare for pneumatic application only.

OPERATING TEMPERATURESStandard Series RI Rotary Actuators are recommended for use

in temperatures from -20° to +160°F [-28° to +71°C]. If a PHDsupplied external rotation speed control valve is used, thetemperature range is from 5° to 160°F [-15° to 71°C]. If a PHDsupplied shock absorber is used, the temperature range is from 32° to150°F [0° to 66°C]. Consult PHD for temperatures beyond this range.

LUBRICATIONAll units are permanently lubricated at assembly for service

using non-lubricated air. Life can be extended by periodic lubricationof the rack and pinion using high grade bearing grease and by usinglubricated air.

BACKLASHAll units have 0° of backlash at ends of rotation.

ANGLE OF ROTATIONStandard angle of rotation is 180°. Consult PHD for rotation

requirements above 180°. All units require angle adjustment orshock absorber option which provide 90° adjustment from each end.

ROTATIONAL ALLOWANCEThe rotational allowance of the Series RI Rotary Actuator is 7°

to 15° on the nominal specified rotation.

ROTATION RATESThe speeds given in the chart on page 3D-11 reflect one cycle of

180° with no load applied at 87 psi [6 bar]. Times given are averageand include the deceleration time through each type stopping method.

CONTROLSControl of output hub speed is extremely important as inertia

force is a function of rotational speed and distance from load tooutput hub center. Flow controls and shock absorbers should beconsidered when inertial loads are applied. See pages 3D-11through 3D-15 for information on Series RI Rotary Actuatorcontrols. See pages 3D-19 through 3D-21 for information on loadstopping capacity.

All dimensions are reference only unless specifically toleranced.

Angle adjustment options and/or shock absorber options mustbe ordered on each unit. Both provide mechanical stops and angleadjustment of -90° from both ends of rotation.

The standard rotation for Series RI is 180°. The ability to adjustover a wide range eliminates the need to order special units forspecific angles of rotation.

The angle adjustment screw has a shock pad as standardproviding quiet actuator operation in less demanding applications.In more demanding applications, the optional shock absorbersshould be specified to handle the higher energy dissipation.

OPTIONS: SERIES RI ROTARY ACTUATOR

All dimensions are reference only unless specifically toleranced.

The PHD Series RI offers optional external compact flowcontrol fittings for adjusting output hub rotation speed. The speed ofthe hub is controlled by regulating the cylinder exhaust. The controlfittings are unidirectional flow control valves where intake air flowsfreely through the flow control and exhaust is metered out throughan adjustment screw. Intake capacity is slightly greater than the fullopen exhaust capacity, enabling maximum variation of hub rotationspeed.

The PHD Series RI flow control fittings are mounted directly tothe caps and provide an integral tube fitting connection. They alsoswivel 360° around the ports, easing tube routing installation.Rotational velocities are adjusted and maintained by the captivatedfine adjustment screw with a locking nut to ensure precise velocitycontrol and repeatability in output hub rotation speed.

EXTERNAL PROXIMITY SWITCHESThis accessory provides for the external mounting of round

metal sensing proximity switches. One switch mounting kit isrequired per switch and includes the plastic bracket with therequired mounting hardware. A steel switch target is also includedin each external proximity switch mounting kit.

The Series RI body accepts up to four external proximityswitches. The typical application requires two switch mounting kits,however, if the three position model has been ordered, the threeposition switch bracket kit must also be ordered. This kit utilizes thetop target groove in the hub and therefore positions the proximityswitch higher from the body.

Proximity switches are supplied by the customer, see chartbelow for switch diameter specifications, dimension C.

LATHE LOADER CAM SHAFT FINISHING PROCESSAPPLICATION EXAMPLES

In this application, a combination of a slide, two grippers, anda rotary actuator load and unload parts from a lathe. One Series190 Gripper grasps a blank part on a holding rack while anotherSeries 190 Gripper grasps a finished part in the lathe. A Series SKSlide extends out, and the finished part is removed from the lathewhile the blank part is removed from the holding rack. A Series RIRotary Actuator then rotates clockwise. The slide retracts, the blankpart is loaded into the lathe, and the finished part is released into aholding bin. The Series RI Rotary Actuator is beneficial for thisapplication due to its high torque output and the capability ofrouting airlines and switch cables through the pinion. This featureeliminates any external airlines, which could wear or sever causingcatastrophic damage.

In this application, two grippers are combined with a Series RIRotary Actuator to load and unload cam shafts into a grindingmachine for finishing. First a Series SK Slide, mounted to a gantry,will provide the reaching motion as a Series5300 Gripper picks up the unfinished camshaft. The Series RI Rotary Actuatorrotates the grasped cam to the topposition. The gantry then cycles backto the grinding machine, thesecond gripper is extended downinto the machine to pick up thefinished cam shaft, the slideretracts, the rotary actuatorrotates the grippers andshafts, and the unfinishedcam is loaded into themachine. Finally thefinished cam shaft is movedand placed in a completiontray on a conveyor. TheSeries RI Rotary Actuator isideal for this applicationdue to its high torqueoutput and the capability ofrouting airlines and switchcables through the pinion.

SIZING AN RI UNIT WITHANGLE ADJUSTMENTS

STEP 1Determine Rotational Mass Moment of Inertia (Jm)Select the illustration from the application types on page3D-22 that most resembles your specific application. Severalseparate calculations may be necessary to fully describe yourapplication. Using the appropriate application equation,calculate the mass moment of inertia for the type of conditionillustrated. The total mass moment of inertia is the sum of theindividual calculations.

STEP 2Determine Necessary Acceleration (αs)This equation calculates the acceleration required to move thedesired rotation in the desired time. The solution is given inradians/sec2.

STEP 3Calculate the Required Starting Torque (TA)Select the illustration from the application types on page3D-22 that most resembles your specific application.Several separate calculations may be necessary to fully describeyour application. Using the appropriate application equation,calculate the torque for each for each type of conditionillustrated that matches your application. The total torque willbe the sum of the individual calculations. Note: Torquecalculations are theoretical, an appropriate safety factorshould be considered. PHD recommends a minimum safetyfactor of 2 to account for friction loss, airline and valve size,and attached accessories.

STEP 4Calculate the Peak Velocity (ω)This formula estimates the peak velocity of the Series RIx inoperation, and is used to determine the stopping capacity ofthe rotary actuator. The solution is given in radians/sec.

STEP 5Compare Peak Velocity (ω) to Allowable ImpactCompare your peak velocity to the maximum allowablevelocity for the given Mass Moment of Inertia (Jm) of yourapplication. The chart is labeled Shock Pad EnergyCapacity. The charts represent the total amount of energy thatis able to be absorbed and provide acceptable motion of theactuator. Acceptable motion is defined as a maximum of onedegree of motion reversal when the load comes to end ofstroke. Note: You may run slightly higher velocities and loadsthan these charts provide and not damage the unit; however,you may find the motion profile unacceptable. Please contactPHD if you are considering using the Series RIx actuatoroutside of the recommended energy range and shockabsorbers are not a desired option. If the shock pad does notprovide enough stopping capacity for your application,go tothe next sizing section titled “Sizing a RIx Unit with Shocks.”

ROTARY ACTUATOR SELECTION: SERIES RI

DETERMINING ALLOWABLE ATTACHEDLOAD WEIGHT

Following are the steps required to determine the allowableattached load weight on the Series RIx rotary actuator. You will needto know the weight of the attached load, the orientation of the rotary,and the center of gravity distance of the load from the hub face.Please refer to the supplied formulas to determine each of theallowable conditions.

STEP 12Determine Allowable Attached Load Weight (Lf)The next step in determining the proper Series RIxactuator size is to determine the bearing capacity of theunit according to your application requirements.

STEP 13Calculate Maximum Actuator Radial Loading (Lm)This formula calculates the maximum radial loading allowed forthe Series RI actuator based on 5,000,000 cycles and the axialload (La) that you are placing on the bearings. Note: Center ofGravity distance is different depending on if the unit ishorizontal or vertical. In horizontal applications, (Cg) is thedistance from the mounting face of the hub to the (Cg) of theload. In vertical applications, (Cg) is the distance from thecenterline of the hub to (Cg) of the load.

STEP 15Calculate the Deceleration (αd)This formula calculates the deceleration of the unit based onthe peak velocity of the individual actuator. The solution isgiven in radians/sec2

STEP 16Calculate Stopping Torque (Td)This is the kinetic energy used to stop a rotary load to yourapplication conditions. This formula is one of the componentsrequired when comparing reaction forces on the bearing. Usingthe identical illustrations and formulas on pages 3D-21 and 3D-22used when calculating the required starting torque, replace theacceleration value with the deceleration value. This is thereaction torque required to stop the load. PHD recommends asafety factor of 1 to 1.25.

STEP 17Calculate Radial Bearing Load At Stopping (LS)This formula converts the sum torque’s of the propelling torqueand stopping torque into the reaction force on the twobearings.

STEP 18Calculate Max. Fixed Radial Load (Lf)This formula will produce the maximum radial load weight thatcan be safely attached to the rotary actuator, given the axialload weight and (Cg) distance of your application.

STEP 19Compare (Lf) to Actual Load Affixed to Actuator (Lr)Compare the (Lf) value to the weight of the attached load. If theattached load is less than the (Lf) value, the actuator is correctfor your application. If the attached load is greater than the (Lf)value, go to the next size actuator and rerun the abovecalculations until the (Lf) value is greater than the attachedload weight.

APPLICATION EXAMPLE: SERIES RI ROTARY ACTUATOR

LATHE LOADER

CAM SHAFT FINISHING PROCESS

In this application, a combination of a slide, 2 grippers, and arotary actuator load and unload parts from a lathe. One Series 190Gripper grasps a blank part on a holding rack while another Series190 Gripper grasps a finished part in the lathe. A Series SK Slideextends out, and the finished part is removed from the lathe whilethe blank part is removed from the holding rack. A Series RI RotaryActuator then rotates clockwise. The slide retracts, the blank part isloaded into the lathe, and the finished part is released into a holdingbin. The Series RI Rotary Actuator is beneficial for this applicationbecause of its integral airlines. This feature eliminates any externalairlines, which could wear or sever causing catastrophic damage.

In this application, two grippers are combined with a Series RIRotary Actuator to load and unload cam shafts into a grindingmachine for finishing. First a Series SK Slide, mounted to a gantry,will provide the reaching motion as a Series 5300 Gripper picks upthe unfinished cam shaft. The Series RI Rotary Actuator rotates thegrasped cam to the top position. The gantry then cycles back to thegrinding machine, the second gripper is extended down into themachine to pick up the finished cam shaft, the slide retracts, therotary actuator rotates the grippers and shafts, and the unfinishedcam is loaded into the machine. Finally the finished cam shaft ismoved and placed in a completion tray on a conveyor. The Series RIRotary Actuator is ideal for this application due to the integral airlines which eliminate the flexing and twisting of external lines. Ifcrimped, cut, or pulled loose it could result in the dropping of thepart into a valuable grinding machine.

ENGINEERING DATA: SERIES RF ROTARY ACTUATOR

PRESSURE AND BREAKAWAY RATINGSAll Series RF Rotary Actuators have a maximum pressure

rating of 100 psi [7 bar] with a 15 psi [1 bar] breakaway pressure.They are for pneumatic application only.

OPERATING TEMPERATURESStandard Series RF Rotary Actuators are recommended for use

in temperatures from -20° to +160°F [-28.9° to +71.1°C]. If a PHDsupplied external rotation speed control valve is used, thetemperature range is from 5° to 160°F [-15° to 71°C]. Consult PHDfor temperatures beyond this range.

LUBRICATIONAll units are permanently lubricated at assembly for service

using non-lubricated air. Life can be extended by periodic lubricationof the rack and pinion using high grade bearing grease and by usinglubricated air.

BACKLASHAll units have 0° of backlash at ends of rotation. For backlash

at mid-rotation see chart below.

ANGLE OF ROTATIONStandard angle of rotation is 180°. Consult PHD for rotation

requirements above 180°. All units are supplied with angleadjustment which provides 90° adjustment from each end.

ROTATIONAL ALLOWANCEThe rotational tolerance of the Series RF Rotary Actuator is +0°

to +3° on the nominal specified rotation.

ROTATION RATESThe speeds given in the chart below reflect one cycle of 180°

with no load applied at 80 psi [5.5 bar]. Times given are average andinclude the deceleration time through to stopping.

ROTATION SPEED CONTROLSControl of output hub speed is extremely important as kinetic

energy generated by a rotating load is a function of rotational speedand distance from the load to output hub center.

OPTIONS: SERIES RF ROTARY ACTUATOR

All dimensions are reference only unless specifically toleranced.

The PHD Series RF Rotary Actuators offer optional externalcompact flow control fittings for adjusting output hub rotationspeed. The speed of the hub is controlled by regulating the cylinderexhaust. The control fittings are unidirectional flow control valveswhere intake air flows freely through the flow control and exhaust ismetered out through an adjustment screw. Intake capacity is slightlygreater than the full open exhaust capacity, enabling maximumvariation of hub rotation speed.

The PHD Series RF flow control fittings are mounted directly tothe caps and provide an integral tube fitting connection. They alsoswivel 360° around the ports, providing easy installation of tubing.Rotational velocities are adjusted and maintained by the captivatedfine adjustment screw with a locking nut to ensure precise velocitycontrol and repeatability in output hub rotation speed.

NOTE: Flow control fitting is effective between 15 to 100 psi[1.0 to 7.0 bar] and from 5° to 160°F [-15° to 71.1°C].

OPTIONS: SERIES RF ROTARY ACTUATOR

The angle adjustment screw has a standard shock padproviding energy dissipation, accurate mechanical repeatability, andquiet actuator operation at end of rotation.

The standard rotation for Series RF is 180 degrees. Themechanical stop provides an adjustment range of 90 degrees fromeach end of rotation. The ability to adjust over this wide rangeeliminates the need to order special units with specific angles ofrotation.

AB ANGLE ADJUSTMENTS WITHSHOCK PAD INSTALLED BOTH ENDS(STANDARD)

See pages 3D-37 through 3D-40 for details on the stoppingcapacity of the installed angle adjustment with shock pad. Referencethe Angle Adjust Specifications Chart for nominal effective angle ofrotation in each direction.

The angle adjustment is factory installed and must remaininstalled prior to operation. Operation of units without an angleadjustment can damage the units and void any and all warranties.Only the PHD angle adjustment with integral shock pad should beused in Series RF Rotary Actuators. The use of any other angleadjustment screw will affect the actuator performance and lifeexpectancy.

ROTARY ACTUATOR SELECTION: SERIES RF

SIZING A SERIES RF UNIT BASED ONTORQUE OUTPUT AND STOPPING CAPACITY

SIZINGA number of factors must be considered when selecting a

Series RF Rotary Actuator. These include actuator orientation, totalload attached and rotational speed. The process of selecting theproper Series RF rotary actuator consists of three main steps:

1) Size the actuator based on the torque requirements2) Size the actuator based on stopping capacity3) Size the actuator based on bearing capacity

Choose the actuator which meets the requirements of yourapplication.

STEP 1Determine Rotational Mass Moment of Inertia (Jm)Select the illustration from the application types on page3D-40 that most resembles your specific application. Severalseparate calculations may be necessary to fully describe yourapplication. Using the appropriate application equation,calculate the mass moment of inertia for the type of conditionillustrated. The total mass moment of inertia is the sum of theindividual calculations.

STEP 2Determine Necessary Acceleration (αA)This equation calculates the acceleration necessary to movethrough the required angle of rotation in the specified time. Theresults are given in radians/sec2.

STEP 3Calculate the Required Starting Torque (TA)Select the illustration from the application types on page3D-40 that most resembles your specific application. Severalseparate calculations may be necessary to fully describe yourapplication. Using the appropriate application equation,calculate the torque for each for each type of conditionillustrated that matches your application. The total torque willbe the sum of the individual calculations. Note: Torquecalculations are theoretical, an appropriate safety factorshould be considered. PHD recommends a minimum safetyfactor of 2 to account for friction loss, air line and valve size,and attached accessories.

SIZING A SERIES RF UNIT BASED ONSTOPPING CAPACITY

STEP 4Calculate the Peak Velocity (ω)This formula estimates the peak velocity of the Series RF inoperation, and is used to determine the stopping capacity ofthe rotary actuator. The result is given in radians/sec.

STEP 5Compare Peak Velocity (ω) to Allowable ImpactCompare the peak velocity to the maximum allowablevelocity for the given Mass Moment of Inertia (Jm) of yourapplication. The chart is labeled Shock Pad EnergyCapacity. The charts represent the total amount of energy thatis able to be absorbed and provide acceptable motion of theactuator. Acceptable motion is defined as a maximum of onedegree of motion reversal when the load comes to the end ofstroke. Note: The unit may be run at slightly higher velocitiesand loads than these charts indicate without damage; however,the motion profile may be unacceptable. Please contact PHD ifthe Series RF Rotary Actuator is to be used outside of therecommended energy range. If the shock pad does not provideenough stopping capacity for the application, the next largersize of actuator should be considered.

ROTARY ACTUATOR SELECTION: SERIES RF

SIZING A SERIES RF UNIT BASED ON BEARINGCAPACITY

STEP 6The charts on the next page are divided into two categories.

The charts on the left are used when axial and radial loads areknown. Use these charts to determine if your application is withinthe allowable attached load for a specific size. Refer to the propercharts based on your intended actuator orientation and load. Thecharts on the next page are used when the load is defined and thedistance of the center of gravity of the load from the center ofrotation or face of the rotary actuator is known. See the illustrationbelow.

Using Known Axial and Radial GraphsIf the application is strictly axial the unit can be loaded up to

the maximum shown on the X axis. If there is combined axial andradial loading, check the known values against the maximumindicated in the chart. The line in the center is the point where theaxial load is matched to the radial load. This is the maximum loadthat can be applied in combined loading applications. Also be awarethat the distance from the face of the hub to the center of gravity iscritical in determining the reaction force back at the bearing. If exactradial and axial loads are unknown, PHD recommends using theLoad vs. CG Distance charts on the next page.

Using Known Load and Center of Gravity DistanceIf there is an unbalanced load, refer to the chart labeled Load

vs. CG Distance, this chart takes into account reactionary forces andshows the allowable load at a given center of gravity distance.Check the application against this chart for proper selection.

STEP 2Determine Acceleration

51.429 rad/sec2

T = Jm x αA x SF

T = .00331 x 51.429 x 2

αA = .035 x

T = .3405 in-lb

.035 x Rotation Angle in Degrees

STEP 3Starting Torque

STEP 4Calculate Peak Velocity

Average Velocity =.35

= 514.28 deg/sec

Peak Velocity = .024 x 514.28 = 12.34 rad/sec

Peak Velocity = .024 x Average Velocity(rad/sec)

180

STEP 5Compare the Peak Velocity

Compare this value to the Shock Pad Energy Capacity chart onpage 11. We see the following:

• The size 14 will not handle the Jm value.

• The size 20 will not attain the speed required.

• The size 25 will perform the task in the desired time.

STEP 6Determine the bearing capabilities of a Size 25Since we know the axial loading but not the radial loading for

this application, we compare it to the Load vs. CG Distance Chart onpage 3D-39.

At this loading condition the size 25 has the capability of 1 lb ataround 2.2 inches off center. Our application is at 1.125 inches.

Therefore; the RFSx25 is suitable for this application.

STEP 3Starting Torque(Equation is from page 14)

STEP 4Calculate Peak Velocity

STEP 5Compare the Peak Velocity

Check this value against the Shock Pad Energy Capacity charton page 3D-37.

• The size 14 cannot handle the Jm value of .0038. The size 14cannot stop the load.

• The size 20 can stop the load and perform the task in therequired time.

STEP 6Determining the bearing capabilities of a Size 20.

We now check the loading condition against the Load vs. CGDistance chart for the size 20 on page 3D-39.

We see that a size 20 can handle approximately 2 lbs at.5 inches from center of gravity distance.

Therefore; the RFSx20 is suitable for this application.

Compare this value to the Shock Pad Energy Capacity chart onpage 11.

• The size 14 will handle the Jm value at the rated PeakVelocity.

STEP 6Determine the bearing capabilities of size 14.

Use the Axial vs. Radial Load Limits chart for the RFSx14 onpage 3D-39.

Since we have only an axial load we can supportup to 1.96 lb.

Therefore; the Series RFSx14 is suitable for this application.
