Norgren M/60287/270 Rotary Vane Actuator - 270° Rotation
Part Number: M/60287/270
Quick Summary
The Norgren M/60287/270 rotary vane actuator delivers compact double-acting rotation for automated machine drives. In tight spaces, engineers often struggle with torque consistency and slow response times, making reliable movement critical. This unit supports CE conformity and is typically considered for safety-related control systems and environmental protection, with certs to verify in the datasheet. By combining a rugged aluminium body, stainless steel barrel, and nitrile seals, it offers robust performance with a lightweight footprint. For system integrators, the actuator pairs smoothly with Pneufit C fittings and mounting accessories to reduce installation risk while delivering repeatable positioning and uptime for conveyor, indexing, and clamping applications.

FAQs
To install the M/60287/270, begin by selecting the Pneufit C compatible 8mm line fittings and the QM/60287/21 mounting accessory. Attach the actuator to the mounting surface, ensure the G3/8 port is clean, and connect the push-in fittings securely. Verify line pressure is within 2–10 bar, then cycle the actuator to confirm smooth cushioning and rotation. This approach minimizes leaks and ensures repeatable positioning in production lines.
The device provides up to 34.5 Nm of torque with 270° rotation in double-acting operation. Suitable for applications requiring extensive angular displacement, such as rotary indexing and clamping operations. Ensure your load and linkage geometry are matched to maintain consistent stroke and speed under actual cycle conditions.
Yes, thanks to buffer cushioning, rugged aluminium body, and stainless steel barrel, the M/60287/270 supports frequent cycling with reduced impact. Its 2–10 bar operating range accommodates common factory air supplies, while the protective nitrile seals help maintain performance in typical packaging environments. For best results, verify cycle time, bolt patterns, and air quality to sustain peak efficiency.
Key certifications to verify with the datasheet include CE conformity for electrical safety implications, IP ratings for ingress protection, and SIL considerations for safety-related control systems. Always check the latest datasheet and supplier confirmation to ensure the unit meets your facility’s regulatory requirements and risk assessments.
Maintenance is streamlined by the availability of QM/60287/00 service kits and compatible fittings, which reduce downtime and prolong life. Regular inspection of seals, cushioning, and mounting hardware, plus timely replacement with genuine parts, minimizes unexpected failures and preserves motion accuracy—delivering lower total cost of ownership over the actuator’s service life.
