Genebre Art5800 Aluminium GNP Rack & Pinion Pneumatic Actuator

Genebre Art5800 Aluminium Rack & Pinion Pneumatic Actuator

The Genebre Art5800 is a versatile aluminium rack and pinion pneumatic actuator, suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. Available in double acting (air-to-open and air-to-close) or spring return (normally closed / air-to-open) configurations, it is designed for precise, high-cycle operation with minimal maintenance.

Constructed from anodized and powder-coated extruded aluminium (ASTM 6005-T5) with honed internal cylinders for low friction and extended service life, the actuator features a dual piston rack and pinion design for compactness, symmetric mounting, and fast, reliable rotation. All internal and external components are treated for corrosion resistance, and stainless steel fasteners ensure long-term durability.

Key Features:

• Aluminium extruded body with anodized and painted corrosion protection
• Dual piston rack and pinion design for compact size and high-cycle life
• Reversible rotation achievable in the field by inverting pistons
• Modular preloaded spring cartridge (spring return versions) with coated spring for corrosion resistance and long life
• Precision machined piston and pinion teeth for low backlash and maximum efficiency
• Stainless steel 304 fasteners for long-term corrosion resistance
• Multiple bearings and guides on racks and pistons for smooth operation and blow-out prevention
• Standard rotation: anti-clockwise open / clockwise close
• Travel adjustability: ±5% at 90° rotation
• G1/4″ connections for air/operating medium supply
• Operating medium: dry or lubricated air, non-corrosive gases, or oil
• Maximum supply pressure: 8 bar
• Operating temperature range: -20 – 80°C
• Full ISO5211, DIN 3337, and NAMUR compliance for solenoid, limit switch, and accessory mounting
• ATEX certified (94/9/CE) for explosive atmospheres: Class II 2 GD T5 (Zones 1,2 / 21,22)
• Suggested safety factor: 20% – 30% for double acting, 30% – 50% for spring return under normal conditions
• Air consumption and torque values available in datasheet

The Art5800 is ideal for actuating valves in demanding industrial applications, combining precise motion, high reliability, and compliance with international standards for hazardous environments.
