Stepper Valve driver, type EKF 1A, EKF 2A
Applications
EKF series stepper valve drivers can be used in application where accurate control of stepper motor valves are
needed using analog input signals (0-10V, 0-5V, 4-20 mA, 0-20 mA) from unit programmable controllers. The
product can be used for both Bipolar and Unipolar type valves. General applications include use in commercial air
conditioning, heat pumps, commercial refrigeration and food retail application
