PA-QR1 Specifications

The PA-QR1 is a quick release actuator, offering added safety and quick movement to any application. The safety feature of the quick release is a critical component, preventing situations where the application may get stuck in a single position. This actuator utilizes a cable pull-style release mechanism that when engaged, allows the shaft to be moved manually, even when the unit is unpowered! It also allows for quick release to be engaged when the actuator is not accessible, by utilizing the AC-32 Quick Release Lever and Cable. With a weight capacity of 675 lbs and stroke lengths from 4" to 14", this actuator is ideal for many projects.

Some examples of the key industries that use the quick release actuator include the medical field for medical beds, dental chairs, and patient lifts and home automation for trap doors and security safes.
