Spring Return or Non-Spring Return
Powermite 
MT Series Globe
SSC61U Electronic Valve Actuator.
Description
The Powermite SSC61U and SSC61.5U Electronic Valve 
Actuators require a 24 Vac supply and receive a 0 to 10 
Vdc control signal to control Powermite MT series valves 
with a 7/32-inch (5.5 mm) stroke and a threaded valve 
bonnet that ts the actuators.
Features
• UL listed for plenum installations
• Direct coupled, one step installation without 
special tools
• Close off up to 120 psi
• Manual override
• Visual position indication
• Spring return or non-spring return
• Orderable as an actuator only or as a complete 
 valve/actuator assembly
Applications
The Powermite SSC61… electronic actuators and  
MT Series Valves are used in heating and cooling  
applications to control hot or chilled water or steam for 
convectors, fan coil units, unit conditioners, radiation, 
reheat coils and similar terminal units requiring a minimum 
of 67 lbs. (300 N) nominal force. The SSC61… accepts 
plenum cable or 3/8-inch ex conduit connection.
