Synchronous Wireless Remote Control Two 12V or 24V Electric Linear Actuators

Use   1 channel DC 30A long range wireless remote control linear actuator switch kit   with RF transmitter and receiver to synchronously control two 12V or 24V   electric linear actuators , these two linear actuators are the same working voltage, telescopic speed and stroke. Used with linear actuators for long distance wireless control the pergola, car, truck, trunk, lifting platform, massage chair, massage seat, solar tracker, sofa, etc. Operating: Press button ▲ on the remote: The two electric linear actuators extend outward Press button ■ on the remote: The two electric linear actuators stop extending outward Press button ▼ on the remote: The two electric linear actuators retract inward Press button ■ on the remote: The two electric linear actuators stop retracting inward

Used with linear actuators for long distance wireless control the pergola, car, truck, trunk, lifting platform, massage chair, massage seat, solar tracker, sofa, etc. The operation is as follows: 1) The control mode is momentary mode Press and hold the ▲ button on the left: The linear actuator 1 extends outwards; Release button ▲ on the left, Linear actuator 1 stops extending outwards. Press and hold the ▼ button on the left: The linear actuator 1 retracts inwards; Release the ▼ button on the left. The linear actuator 1 stops retracting inwar

How Do You Control DC 12V 24V Electric Linear Actuator by Manual Switch?

What Type of Manual Switch Do You Need? We have a lots of types of manual electrical switches, so how do you know which one is best for controlling a  12V or 24V linear actuator . As you are most likely wanting to extend and retract your linear actuator, you’ll want to use a 3 position toggle switch (Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) ON-OFF-ON switch), or manual controller with wire handle. 3 Position ON-OFF-ON Toggle Switch 3 position toggle switch will allow you to change the direction of the input voltage to the actuator, which is needed to change directions, while a double throw gives you two ON positions, and OFF position; one ON position for extension, the other ON position for retraction, and OFF position for stop. Maximum load current is 15A.     Manual Controller with Wire Handle 1)  24V Manual Controller with Wire Handle for 2000N Linear Actuator The manual controller input voltage is AC100 ~ 240V, DC 24V output and maximum output current is 3A;The control handle has two b

How to Use an External Limit Switch with a Linear Actuator

Image
An  external limit switch  is a very handy and cost effective means of controlling the travel of a  linear actuator . Here we will go over how to use an external limit switch with a linear actuator. Most electric linear actuators are made with built-in limit switches. This means you are able to adjust the travel of the stroke to your precise desired position. Not all linear actuators are built limit switches. So what do you do when the linear actuators stroke is longer than you need? Installing an external limit switch is the simplest and most affordable method to control the travel in electric linear actuators where the limit switch is either non-adjustable or non-existent. There are three ways to control the stroke: Limit extension Limit retraction Limit both extension and retraction What is a Built-In Linear Actuator Limit Switch? All our linear actuators have internal limit switches at the fully extended and retracted positions. These limit switches ensure that when you fully exte

Restricting Linear Actuator Stroke using external limit switches and remote control switch

Image
Sometimes you may not want to use the entire stroke length of a linear actuator, to restrict the travel distance you will need our  external limit switch . How external limit switches work External Limit switches are spring loaded buttons that when pressed open / close the circuit, stopping the motor from spinning any further. These switches have 3 terminals (NC, NO and COM). By connection the external limit switches to the limit control terminals of remote control switch.When the actuator collides with the external limit switch, cut off the power supply of the electric linear actuator motor. In-built limit switches All our  linear actuators  have internal limit switches at the fully extended and retracted positions. These limit switches ensure that when you fully extend (or retract) the actuator it will automatically shut off preventing the motor burning out and/or doing damage to the body of the actuator. However, these limits not adjustable. If you want to: Limit extension Limit re

Linear Actuator Kit

What is included in a Linear Actuator Kit? We get many people asking for a Linear Actuator Kit so we thought we would put together some different options for an Actuator kit. The main components that come in the Kit are the Linear Actuators, some for of attaching them (Mounting brackets). Some type of controls (switch) and a form of power supply. When it comes to Controlling the Linear Actuators, there are several options and each option is typically application specific, or user preferred. For example some people want a manual switch and others prefer a remote wireless control in their Linear Actuator Kit. Secondly there are severals of type of Linear Actuators to choose from, and for every Actuator you then have the further complication of deciding which Stroke length, which speed and force option and even the type of voltage you require. Option 1 - Simple and Practical Linear Actuators Kit This kit includes the Linear Actuators (there has 500N, 2000N, 6000N, high speed, etc.

How Does a Linear Actuator work?

Image
The Main Structure: An  electric linear actuator  consists of a DC motor, a series of gear (Reduction gear), two limit switches and a Lead screw including a nut. The Linear Actuators'enclosures: Linear Actuators have different IP ratings. The lower the number the lower the protection is. IP-54 offers basic protection such as dust, and a higher IP-65 rating offers a water proof protection and ideal for outdoor use. Linear Actuator Works: An electric linear actuator is a device that converts the rotational motion of a motor into linear motion. This will provide both push and pull movements via the main extending shaft on the Actuator. This pushing and pulling action makes it possible to lift, drop, slide, adjust, tilt, push or pull things, simply by pushing a button. Stroke Control Device: The gear on the DC motor drives a series of gear (Reduction gear) to rotate, so that push and pull movements via the main extending shaft on the Actuator. When it reaches the maximum stroke, the
