The ProAct™ Digital Plus actuator controls varying functions such as fuel rack positioning, timing control, throttle valve, and wastegate positioning, among others. The actuator is effectively a positioner with an integral driver that will accept a position command signal from another device in the system such as a speed control. Its integral digital driver is capable of controlling the actuator, communicating with the outside control system, and containing on-board software and intelligence to realize monitoring and customizing functions.
