IP65 IP67 Protection Class
The LEY rod type electric actuator is available in two specifications for improved ingress protection. The X5 option is IP65 dust and drip proof. The X7 option improves to IP67 dust-tight and water jet proof. The X8 option includes IP67 protection as well as a battery-less absolute encoder. For DC motor models, the specs are achieved by enclosing the motor in a sealed aluminum cover with a special cable connector, and pairing the rod with a scraper and lub-retainer. Additionally, the body extrusion includes a vent hole and fitting to balance internal pressure so that dust and water are not drawn in.
LEY-X5 Rod, IP65 Dust/Drip Proof, Incremental Encoder
The X5 option, available for the LEY series in sizes 25 and 32, is a dust and drip proof specification equivalent to IP65. For DC motor models, the spec is achieved by enclosing the motor in a sealed aluminum cover with a special cable connector, and pairing the rod with a scraper and lub-retainer. Additionally, the body extrusion includes a vent hole and fitting to balance internal pressure so that dust and water are not drawn in.
- Body sizes: 25, 32
- Same features and performance as standard LEY, plus:
- IP65 environmental rating
- Lube-retainer retains grease oil film on rod
- Sealed aluminum motor cover
- Sealed cable connector
LEY-X7 Rod, IP67 Dust/Waterjet Proof, Incremental Encoder
The X7 option is a dust-proof and water-jet-proof specification equivalent to IP67. This spec is achieved with the addition of several unique features above the standard LEY. The motor is sealed within an aluminum cover, with the cable passing through a water-tight connector. The rod passes through a scraper and employs a lubrication retainer to prevent oil film washout. Further, grease supply holes are also provided. The body extrusion includes a vent hole and fitting to balance internal pressure so that dust and water are not drawn in. Available in body sizes, 25, 32, and 40.
- Same load and performance as standard LEY
- IP67 environmental protection rating
- Sealed aluminum motor cover and cable connector
- Rod scraper with lube retainer
- Grease supply holes
- Body vent hole
LEY-X8 Rod, IP67 Dust/Waterjet Proof, Battery-less Absolute Encoder
The X8 option is a dust-proof and water-jet-proof specification equivalent to IP67. This spec is achieved with the addition of several unique features above the standard LEY. The motor is sealed within an aluminum cover, fitted with M-type metal cable connectors. The rod passes through a scraper and employs a lubrication retainer to prevent oil film washout. Futher, grease supply holes are also provided. The body extrusion includes a vent hole and fitting to balance internal pressure so that dust and water are not drawn in. The 24VDC motor includes a battery-less absolute encoder. This encoder allows the actuator to be powered down without losing its positional awareness. The controllers's operational and positional step data can be accessed through several fieldbus protocols, IO-Link, or parallel I/O. Available in body sizes 25, 32, and 40.
- Same load and performance as standard LEY
- IP67 environmental protection rating
- Sealed aluminum motor cover with metal cable connectors
- Rod scraper with lube retainer
- Grease supply holes
- Body vent hole
