Working Principles 90° Double Acting Pneumatic Actuators

Double acting actuators are rotated by supplying air to related port until it reaches desired position

Counterclockwise Rotation (CCWR) Clockwise Rotation (CWR)

Air to port B forces the pistons Air to port A forces the pistons Air to port B forces the pistons Air to port A forces the pistons
inwards, causing the pinion to outwards, causing the pinion to inwards, causing the pinion to outwards, causing the pinion to
rotate clockwise while the air is rotate counterclockwise while the rotate counterclockwise while rotate clockwise while the air is
exhausted from port A. air is exhausted from port B. the air is exhausted from port A. exhausted from port B.
