The Siemens Combustion Controls SQM4 Synchro Modulating Actuator

The SQM40/SQM41 actuators are suited for driving oil pressure controller, butterfly valves, dampers or for use on other applications that require rotary motion.

The actuators are used primarily for load-dependent control of the flow of gas, oil and combustion air in connection with modulating 3-position controllers or continuous controllers (4-20 mA) and/or directly by burner controls.

The Siemens SQM4 series actuator is great for modulating air and fuel valves. it can also be mounted to a linkage for multiple control points. the resolution on this on this actuator is over 100 steps. this resolution is three times the leading competitor. this resolution is helpful to hone in on the desired set point with precision, rather than hunting or oscillating. this actuator comes in three torque settings: 45 inch pounds; 90 inch pounds; or 160 inch pounds. this actuator is NEMA 4. there is a gasket around the cover and the shaft is sealed to make it entirely NEMA 4. high fire and low fire conditions are simply set by turning these cams. 

The SCC SQM4 actuator has low voltage terminals and high voltage terminals. the low voltage is helpful for analog signals such as 4-20 mA, 0-135 ohm, and 2-10 volt DC. the high voltage terminals are for your line voltages for the actuator to modulate according to the analog signal voltage. 

The SQM4 series actuator is in stock for a common lead time of one to two days. this actuator can be direct coupled to a control valve for air or fuel control, or we also with couplings, crank arms and brackets to mount the actuator for your needs. 

Areas of application are oil and gas burners of medium to higher capacity as well as thermal process plants.
