NEW: The compact chain actuator PA-K(I)-20

Monday, 12 February 2024

The time has come: the new member of the PA chain actuator product family has arrived! The Chain actuator PA-K(I)-20 is the charming little brother of the Chain actuator PA-K-50. It is the ideal solution for anyone looking for maximum flexibility in a limited space. Discover the most compact chain actuator on the market.

Simply flexible

Whether bottom-hung, top-hung or side-hung sashes - you can install the PA-K(I)-20 on the main closing edge of all window types. Here's the besst thing: on inward-opening sashes, you can fix the actuator directly to the frame without additional bracket parts - a time-saving installation and therefore a clear cost advantage. In addition to this rigid fixing, the actuator can also be installed on a rotating bearing for longer strokes. Numerous bracket sets are available for all applications. The PA-K(I)-20 delivers 200 N for up to 1000 mm stroke in the pull direction and up to 200 mm stroke in the push direction. It is suitable for smoke and heat extraction (SHEV) as well as for controlled natural ventilation.

Simply space-saving

The PA-K(I)-20 impresses with its very compact dimensions. With an installation height of just 20 mm in the "profile-integrated" version and 24 mm in the "surface-mounted" version, it is perfect for sashes with a low height, such as those found in mullion and transom constructions. The actuator shines on the outside with its anodised aluminium housing and on the inside with a variety of functional highlights. Soft start and soft close ensure safe and quiet operation in everyday use.

Integrated into the window profile, the PA-KI-20 is almost invisible.

Simply integrated

On request, the PA-K(I)-20 is available without a housing and turns into the PA-KI-20, allowing the actuator to be integrated into the window profile. It couldn't be more compact: the installation height of 20 mm combined with an installation depth of 35 mm is unique on the market. In everyday use, the PA-KI-20 is almost invisible in this profile-integrated version - ideal for use in residential, office and commercial areas. Your sales partner will be happy to advise you on how to realise your individual project.

Simply double

All stroke variants have an optional double connection (DA version). In this version, you can choose to supply the PA-K(I)-20 with power on the left or right. This is convenient if one side is difficult to access after installation or if several synchronised actuators are to be connected together.

No additional brackets are required on the frame thanks to the rigid mounting.

Simply SICO

PA series chain actuators are equipped with tried-and-tested SICO technology. You simply connect the actuator via the SICO PLUG. Thanks to the SICO interface, you can parameterise the window opener and read out data even after installation - simply and conveniently via USB using the SICO LINK software, without additional supply voltage. The SICO BUS technology also offers an interface for building automation systems so that you can integrate the PA-K(I)-20 into KNX or ModBus in no time.

Simply synchronised

Thanks to SICO technology, you can combine up to four chain actuators and optionally two subsequent locking actuators in a synchronised group. Synchronisation is quick and easy. Synchronised actuators communicate with each other in real time via SICO technology and adapt their running behaviour to each other. You can conveniently parameterise the group on the master via SICO LINK.
