DuraDrive Direct Coupled Actuators are designed to be
used in both damper and valve control applications.
The following general instructions are for damper
applications, refer to the Applicable Literature table for
valve literature.

General Instructions
• 150 lb-in (17 N-m) rated torque
• NEMA Type 4 housing (IEC IP56)
• Custom automatic current sensing motor control
provides extended reliability and repeatable timing
• Direct coupled to the damper shaft with dual
industrial hardened universal mounting clamps
• Integral wiring for proportional control by 2 to 10 Vdc
or 4 to 20 mAdc
1
• Clockwise or counterclockwise spring return is
determined by actuator mounting position
• Accurate 92° travel digitally controlled
• Integral position indication scale
• Rugged die-cast housing
• Oil immersed gear train provides continuous
lubrication
• Integral transformer for high voltage systems
• Rated for operating temperature up to 140 °F
• Five year warranty
• MS40-717x series actuators can be double-
mounted (gang mounting) to accommodate high
torque application requirements (2 to 4 actuators).

Torque See Table-1.
Duty Cycle 100%.
Timing See Table- 1 .
Mechanical:
Anti-Rotation Bracket,
Standard 9" long x 13/16" wide (229 x 21 mm), included with the actuator.
Optional Order AM-752 (4" long x 1-11/16" wide) for mounting the actuator in narrow
spaces.
Universal Mounting Clamps, Two clamps are required for all mounting configurations.
Standard 3/8" to 1/2" (10 to 13 mm) round and square shaft mounting clamps are
included with the actuator.
Optional Order AM-753 for 5/8" (16 mm) square and 3/4" to 1" (19 to 25 mm) round
damper shafts, two per package.
Standard Damper shaft must be at least 4-5/8" (117 mm) long for st andard mounting.
Optional Shorter than standard length shafts require the AM-676 shaft extension
(order separately).
Position Indicator, Scale numbered from 0 to 95°, provided for positio n indication.
Nominal Damper Area, Actuator sizing should be done in accordance with damper
manufacturer’s specifications.
Direction of Rotation, Clockwise or counterclockwise rotation is determined by
actuator mounting. The zero (0) position on the position indicator is the normal or spring
return position.
