Quasar L DC Chain Actuator

Centered chain orientation actuator

  • Ideal for smart buildings; integrates with building and home automation systems
  • Low voltage DC motors are energy efficient
  • Multiple actuators may be linked for simultaneous operation of multiple windows
  • Push/Pull Force: 66 lbs (24″), 33/66 lbs (30″), or 22/66 lbs (40″)
  • 600 mm (24”), 750 mm (30″), 1000 (40″) chain stroke
  • Applications

    • For automation of awning or hopper windows, skylights, or curtain wall vents.
    • For commercial, institutional and residential projects, including schools, universities, municipal buildings, offices, gymnasiums, homes, condos, and more.
    • Natural Ventilation systems, such as operable windows and skylights, save energy and lower operating costs by reducing air conditioning and heating use.
    • LEED credits for green building projects can be earned under Indoor Environmental Quality for Natural Ventilation, Daylighting and Views.
    • Smoke Evacuation systems reduce smoke, heat and casualties during a fire; AFI actuators are SHE certified.
