Note:
1. The above data is the maximum load capacity that can be obtained when each linear actuator runs in the vertical direction. The maximum load capacity of the entire synchronous system is the sum of the maximum load capacities of the four linear actuators. If the weight of your equipment (such as a cellar door) is 100kg, and you want to use a linear actuator to open this door, you need to calculate the actual force acting on the linear actuator according to your installation method. This force is usually 2-5 times the weight of the cellar door. If you don't know how to calculate it, please contact us for help.
2. The above is the speed at no load, and the actual working speed will gradually slow down as the load increases. Full load speed is approximately 60-70% of No-load speed.
3. Different speeds correspond to different maximum loads. Please select the right speed according to the speed and maximum load you need.
4. Linear actuators are not recommended for continuous operation under maximum load, we recommend letting it work at about half of the maximum load to get a longer working life.
5. For linear actuators with a stroke greater than 500MM, you should not normally allow them to operate at their maximum stroke under heavy loads. If the actual stroke you want is 600MM, we recommend that you choose a linear actuator with a stroke of 700-800MM.
6. When the speed of the linear actuator is 100mm/s or 160mm/s, the self-locking force is much smaller than the thrust. At other speeds the self-locking force is greater than the thrust.
7. The maximum pull force of the linear actuator is slightly less than its maximum thrust force.
The information for synchronous controller:
Introduction:
If you want to use multiple linear actuators to raise and lower an equipment, for example two, three or four electric actuators. Since the high-speed DC motors in electric actuators cannot run at exactly the same speed, so the movement speed of the electric actuator will also be different. When multiple electric actuators work at the same time, their actual speeds cannot be exactly the same. In this case, we can use a synchronous controller to operate multiple linear actuators to rise or fall synchronously. They work completely in sync without any difference.
Working principle:
If you want to use a synchronous controller to operate 2, 3 or 4 linear actuators fully synchronously, you will need to add built-in Hall effect sensors to each linear actuator. And when you purchased Hall effect sensor along with linear actuator, we will install Hall effect sensor to linear actuator for you.
When 2, 3 or 4 linear actuators are running together, Hall sensor will send Hall signals to the synchronization controller, and the controller will adjust the running speed of each linear actuator, so that all linear actuators run at the exact same speed.
Feature:
It can operate three electric linear actuators A to run completely synchronously.
Wired control via a touch control handle.
Wireless control via a remote.
If use an external antenna, the controller has a farther working range.
The LED display on the control handle will display the stroke position in real time.
Six touch function buttons: ▲, ▼, 1, 2, 3 and R.
Buttons ▲ and ▼ are used to operate the linear actuators extension and retraction.
Buttons 1, 2 and 3 are used to automatically operate the linear actuators to three pre-memorized positions.
Button R is the reset button and is used to reset the system in case of an error.
With wired control terminals: You can connect manual switches to control linear actuators.
With reset button.
When linear actuators move close to the end position, they will automatically slow down to protect themselves.
When linear actuators are fully retracted, they will retain 1MM of travel to protect themselves.

Connection:
1) Plug the touch control handle into the port Hand Set of the controller.
2) Plug three linear actuators into the ports CH1, CH2 and CH3 of the controller.
3) Connect the positive pole of DC power supply to the terminal <+> of the controller, and connect the negative pole of DC power supply to the terminal <-> of the controller.
CAUTION: Do not connect AC power directly to the controller!
Operation:
1. Operation via the touch control handle:
Attention: The handle is operated by touch control. The touch sensitivity can be automatically calibrated when powered on for the first time. Hands are prohibited from touching the handle when powered on to prevent interference with the sensitivity calibration and affect the operating sensitivity.
1) Press and hold the ▲ button of the control handle, three linear actuators extend outward at the same time; Release the button, three linear actuators stop at the same time.
2) Press and hold the ▼ button of the control handle, three linear actuators retract inward at the same time; Release the button, three linear actuators stop at the same time.
3) Press any of the button 1, 2, or 3 on the control handle, three linear actuators will automatically move to the position memorized by that button and then automatically stop.
Note: You will need to first memorize three positions into these three buttons.
4) The LED display on the control handle will display the stroke position data in real time. For example, the number 03.5 means that the linear actuators have reached the stroke position of 35MM.
2. Operation via the remote control: (The remote control of the synchronous controller has two control modes, interlocking mode and momentary mode, please select a control mode you need when ordering.)
2.1 Momentary Control Mode:
1) Press and hold the button ▲ of the remote control, three linear actuators extend out at the same time; Release the button, three linear actuators stop at the same time.
2) Press and hold the button ▼ of the remote control, three linear actuators retract inward at the same time; Release the button, three linear actuators stop at the same time.
2.2 Interlocking Control Mode:
1) Press the button ▲ of the remote control, three linear actuators extend out at the same time, they will reach the maximum stroke at the same time and stop automatically. During operation, you can also press any button of the remote control to stop three linear actuators at the same time.
2) Press the button ▼ of the remote control, three linear actuators retract inward at the same time, they will fully retract at the same time and stop automatically. During operation, you can also press any button of the remote control to stop three linear actuators at the same time.
3. Operation via the manual switch:
The controller has wired control terminals, and you can connect external devices (with normally open contact), such as manual switches to wired control terminals, then use them to control linear actuators.
For example, you can connect two manual switches to wired control terminals <UP> and <DOWN> according to following wiring diagram.
The operation:
1) Press the UP button of the manual switch, three linear actuators extend outward at the same time. During operation, you can also press any button of two manual switches to stop three linear actuators at the same time.
2) Press the DOWN button of the manual switch, three linear actuators retract inward at the same time. During operation, you can also press any button of two manual switches to stop three linear actuators at the same time.
How to memorize three stroke positions:
1) The controller can memorize total three stroke positions, and each button memorizes one stroke position.
2) First operate three linear actuators to the first suitable stroke position that you need to store, then press and hold the button 1 of the control handle for about 5 seconds, the stroke value on the LED display will flash. This means that the current stroke position is already stored in button 1.
3) You can continue to store the other two stroke positions into the button 2 and 3 by following the operation above.
Reset Function:
When the LED display on the control handle shows the fault code, you need to reset the system as follows.
Reset operation: Press and hold the <R> button of the control handle or press and hold the <Reset> button on the controller, or press and hold the ▲ and ▼ buttons on the remote control at the same time, until all linear actuators are reset to the bottom, and the LED display on the control handle shows "00.1", then release the button.
How to pair the remote control to the controller:
Notice: We have paired the transmitter to the controller before leaving the factory.
1) Press and hold the pairing button on the controller for 8-9 seconds, the signal LED on the receiver board turns on, this indicates that the controller enters the learning status.
2) Press any one button on the transmitter, if signal LED on the receiver board flashes 2 times and then goes off, this indicates that the pairing is successful.
3) The controller can learn several transmitters with different codes.
How to delete the remote control:
We have paired the transmitter to the controller, if you don’t want the controller to work with the transmitter, you can delete all transmitters codes stored in the controller.
Operation: Quickly and continuously press the learning button on the receiver board 8 times, then release the learning button, the signal LED on the receiver board flashes 8 times and then goes off, this indicates that all stored codes have been deleted successfully.
Note:
1. Each linear actuator would require two mounting brackets, one to fix the head of linear actuator and another to fix the bottom of linear actuator. This kit does not contain fixed mounting brackets, please buy them from the drop down menu.
2. You need to use a DC12V/20A or DC24V/10A switching power supply to power this kit. This kit does not contain this power supply, please buy it from the drop down menu.
