    What is an Explosion-Proof Pneumatic Actuator?

Explosion-proof Pneumatic actuator

    An explosion-proof pneumatic actuator is a mechanical device designed to convert pneumatic energy into mechanical motion. It typically operates by using compressed air to move a piston or diaphragm, which in turn opens or closes a valve or moves a damper. The "explosion-proof" designation indicates that the actuator is built to prevent any internal explosion from igniting external flammable gases or dust, ensuring safety in hazardous environments.
