Remote Actuator Technology
The remote actuator cable assembly consists of a wire cable inside of a plastic insulated spiral wire casing. Identifying a proper outing of the cable
assembly is important. Deviations from line to line placement will require bends in the cable with resulting losses in the overall assembly. These inef-
ficiencies show up as friction losses and lost motion. Frictional losses are increases in actuation force due to losses in the assembly. Lost motion is
an undesirable difference between the input end of the assembly and the output end. The principle element of lost motion is backlash and deflection.
Backlash is caused by the wire cable moving inside the casing with the change in direction of motion. It is the function of clearance between the wire
cable and casing, plus the number of degrees of bend in the cable assembly. Deflection of the cable assembly, while usually low, can be minimized by
anchoring the casing.
This is especially true in those applications of cable assemblies with long lengths and/or large degrees of bend in the system.
All of these losses and resulting inefficiencies can be reduced by the equipment designer through minimizing the total degress of bend in the assem-
bly. Because of the number of variables effecting proper operation of any remotely actuated switch assembly, it is important that the ordering instruc-
tions be used to determine proper cable length and to provide samples for customer approval.
Consult figure for minimum information required to describe cable assembly application.
