Typical applications
Alternatives that meet or exceed these figures
Engineers often come to us with an Exlar part number and leave with an alternative that is easier to source, quicker to deliver or a better fit for the machine. These 3 series from our supply network are the closest match on published figures.
All-316 stainless electric rod actuator with IP69K washdown rating and ball or roller screws, designed to hygienic guidelines for higher-force food, beverage and pharma tasks. Replaces the ERD22/25/30 hygienic sizes.

| Speed | 1,270 mm/s | 497 mm/s |
Figures are the highest published for each series and are not always measured the same way. A higher figure is not automatically a better choice: mounting, duty cycle, feedback, connectors and approvals matter too. An engineer will check the fit against your application before recommending anything.
