Multilayer Piezoelectric Actuators ASL Series Metal Sealed 150C Overview Applications Multilayer piezoelectric actuators are ceramic elements Typical applications include fine adjustment of various X-Y used to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy table steppers, mirror/prism positioning, linear motors, fluid such as displacement or force by utilizing the piezoelectric flow control valve drive, vibration source and manipulators. longitudinal effect. KEMETs multilayer piezoelectric actuators are produced based on our unique element structure design and piezoelectric ceramic materials with high electrostrictive factors. Compared to conventional piezoelectric actuators, they are smaller in size but can generate higher displacements and forces at low voltages. The ASL Metal Sealed 150C series actuators are less impacted by ambient humidity due to insulation from the atmosphere. As a result, long operational life and high performance have been attained which are ideal for use in various high reliability applications such as semiconductor device production equipment and optical communication equipment. Benefits High reliability: Realization of MTTF = 36,000 hours at 85C and 100 V Stable performance in high temperature Low power input due to small capacitance Operating temperature range from -40C to +150C Built-in pre-load mechanism and mounting attachments allowing for easier installation into equipment Accurate nanometer positioning Minimum mechanical abrasion Large generated force of 800 N Long operational life RoHS/REACH compliant Built Into Tomorrow KEMET Electronics Corporation KEMET Tower One East Broward Boulevard P0104 ASL 7/22/2021 1 Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301 USA 954-766-2800 www.kemet.comMultilayer Piezoelectric Actuators ASL Series Metal Sealed 150C Ordering Information AS L 170 C 801 N D 0 -A0 LF Housing Construction Nominal Maximum Generated Mount Drive Block Environmental Series and Operating Displacement Voltage Force New Design Lead Type Configuration Configuration Compliance Temperature (m) (VDC) (N) Range AS = L = Bellows The first C = 150 The first two N = Female D = V groove Sequentially Blank = LF = RoHS/ Encapsulated (pre-load), two digits digits specify thread type P = Plane numbered Mounting type REACH in Metal Case maximum specify the the values.
