Norgren M/60288/270 Rotary vane actuator - 270° rotation
Part Number: M/60288/270
Quick Summary
The M/60288/270 rotary vane actuator from Norgren is a compact, double-acting pneumatic device designed for precise 270° motion in tight automation cells and packaging lines. It addresses space constraints and torque demands by delivering 123 Nm of torque in a small footprint, with fixed and adjustable rotation angles from 90 to 270 degrees. In EU operations, CE compliance is common for pneumatic components, and many configurations support SIL-integrated safety and IP-rated environments depending on installation and accessories. For OEMs and integrators, the actuator offers robust materials, simple mounting with QM/60288/21, and a broad operating range that reduces embodied cost while improving cycle accuracy. This combination supports reliable performance, faster changeovers, and predictable uptime in high-demand applications.

FAQs
Mounting is supported by the QM/60288/21 mounting style (Mounting style C). For compatible installation, verify the actuator’s mounting interface with your frame and consult the datasheet to ensure correct bolt patterns and alignment. The design favors quick changes and repeatable positioning in limited spaces.
The actuator provides 123 Nm torque with a 270° rotation range. It uses a G1/2 port and operates on compressed air at 2–10 bar, with an operating temperature range of -5 to 60 °C. These specs support precise, repeatable motion in compact automation cells.
Yes. The 270° rotation combined with a compact footprint enables efficient indexing and clamping in packaging and pick-and-place workflows. The buffer cushioning reduces shock during cycle transitions, helping to protect delicate parts and improve overall cycle accuracy in high-volume production.
Key considerations include CE compliance for European deployments, with SIL-rated safety integration and IP ratings dependent on configuration and installation details. Always verify the specific product configuration in the datasheet and ensure proper protective measures are in place for your application.
Service kits are available (QM/60288/00) to support maintenance of the M/60280/M/60285 family and related actuators. Accessories include Pneufit C fittings and mounting aids. These options reduce downtime, extend service life through scheduled maintenance, and improve total cost of ownership in high-cycle environments.
