Description The C-Series Actuators build upon our popular Classic Series, incorporating several design enhancements for improved performance and durability. Crafted from heavy-duty materials, these actuators deliver a powerful yet quiet operation. The robust aluminum casing and rods are engineered to handle demanding forces with ease, ensuring exceptional reliability in tough applications. Available in three force and speed options, with stroke lengths ranging from 1 inch to 30 inches, the C-Series offers versatility to suit a variety of needs. Each unit features built-in end-of-stroke limit switches with an integrated brake, ensuring precise and safe operation by automatically halting movement at fully extended and retracted positions. Experience the perfect blend of strength, precision, and versatility with the C-Series Actuators.  Features and Benefits Works with any type of Rocker switch or control boards such as  FCB-2 for the ultimate in Actuator control Rugged compact design for universal hardy applications. These units are smaller than other actuators for the same force output Metal Alloy Casing, for any Super Duty usage, utilizes a completely sealed enclosure and is ready to be deployed in any application.  Internal limit switches automatically shut off the unit at the end of the stroke - This protects you and your equipment from possible damage. Many stroke increments ranging from 1" up to 30" stroke, gives you more flexibility - Custom strokes can be built to order.  Delivering force options from 45 to 225 lbs.
