 Rate Controls – ADA/DA Series

These Rate Controls are designed to regulate the speed and time required for a mechanism to move from one position to another. Adjustable and non-adjustable models are available to accommodate a wide variety of motion control applications. Both single and double acting hydraulic damper designs allow smooth, controllable machine operation by providing rate control for both linear and rotational (hinged) loads. Each product family offers a variety of stroke lengths from which to choose.

Adjustable,Double Acting (ADA500 and ADA700 Series) rate controls regulate speed in both tension and/or compression modes independently. ADA products let the user adjust the rate to suit specific application requirements. Fixed orifice interchangeable cartridges are available for the ADA 500 Series, which provide tamperproof operation once the desired rate has been determined. An optional remote adjustment cable provides adjustment control in otherwise inaccessible locations for the ADA 500 Series.

The DA Series are non-adjustable, custom-orificed at factory, double acting rate controls which provide smooth, reliable motion control for high load capacities. Tow Bar (TB) snubbers are specially designed DA’s which dampen the abrupt starts and stops of power and free conveying systems.
