24 Volt Actuator

On a small single-axis solar tracker, a 24 volt linear actuator drives the tilt arm that sets the panel angle. The arm is bolted between the moving panel frame and a fixed bracket, and the arm length converts the linear stroke into an angle — so the actuator supplies the travel and the holding force while the arm and its pivot define the geometry. The unit runs from the tracker's own 24V DC supply, and it has to keep the panel at its set angle against wind load when the controller is idle or the power is switched off.

Product Introduction

Product Introduction

 

24 volt linear actuator pairs a 16 mm 304 stainless steel outer tube with an all-metal screw drive. This configuration is built with a 100 mm stroke and reaches a no-load speed of up to 25 mm/s, in an IP56 sealed housing that resists dust and splashing water. In the standard 2 mm-lead configuration the static self-locking force is greater than twice the unit's rated thrust instead of trading that holding capacity away for speed, which is what keeps the arm in position overnight without an added brake.

Product Details

 

The left image lines up actuators of different sizes so the range can be compared side by side. Every unit in the family keeps the same 16 mm outer tube diameter, so a tracker arm design can move to a longer stroke - up to the 100 mm used here - without changing the mounting envelope, the rod diameter or the position of the mounting eyelets; the units differ in length only.

The right image is the mounting lug at the end of the telescopic rod. The front ear is machined from 304 stainless steel, the same grade used for the outer tube, so the one part of the actuator that stays exposed all year keeps its surface against rain, dust and coastal salt spray instead of corroding at the joint. The hole in the ear takes the pivot pin that links the rod to the tracker arm.

Standard 25 mm/s vs High-Speed 50 mm/s: Which Configuration Fits the Arm

 

Both configurations use the same 16 mm KT1610 body, the same 304 stainless steel and copper alloy drivetrain, the same IP56 sealing and the same external limit protection board. The difference is the lead of the lead screw, and it changes the speed/holding balance:

Parameter Standard (2 mm lead) High-speed (4 mm lead)
No-load speed Up to 25 mm/s Up to 50 mm/s

That is the whole specification difference - the high-speed version is the same unit with a 4 mm lead screw instead of 2 mm, so it covers the same 100 mm stroke in half the time.

Both are good choices; the decision is about how the arm is driven in your control sequence:

Choose the standard 25 mm/s version when the stroke time is short compared with the interval between moves - the usual case for a tilt arm that steps through the day at a comfortable pace, and it keeps the widest margin between movements.

Choose the high-speed 50 mm/s version when the arm has to reach its next angle quickly: longer arms with more travel per move, or a control sequence that steps the panel often enough that stroke time starts to decide how much of the day is tracked. The same travel, in half the time.

Either way, check the duty cycle. The KT1610 is rated for intermittent operation (approximately 10% duty cycle), so pause time between movements is part of the control sequence.

The measured performance curves for both variants, the materials analysis and the thermal envelope are documented in the KT1610 engineering audit.

 

Certifications, Testing Equipment and Warranty

Every unit comes with documentation a purchasing or audit team can check: CE and RoHS conformity, an ISO 9001 quality system and more than 30 national patents are published on the certifications page, and each production batch is verified on the six in-house test stations shown on the testing equipment page. Units are built in our own Xiamen factory and supplied factory-direct, from one piece, with a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects - see why KABASI.
