More than 100 SIPOS 5 HiMod electric actuators have recently been specified and ordered as part of the latest modernisation program for the Pruné ov Power Station, the largest coal-fired power station complex in the Czech Republic.

The Pruné ov II Power station is the Czech Republic’s newest fossil fuel powered station and consists of five 210 MW generating units which started operation in 1981/82. The contract to modernise the power station and increase unit capacity from 210MW to 250MW has involved improvements to the valve and control systems. With support of the local SIPOS agent, AUMA Servopohony, the SIPOS 5 HiMod electric actuator was selected by the subcontractor, Škoda Power - Doosan, Vítkovice, a.s.

The SIPOS 5 HiMod is the latest and highest specification product to come from the specialist electric actuator manufacturer. Developed to provide high precision under continuous duty operation, the actuatorincorporates a high resolution encoder. This allows delivery of repeatable drive shaft position accuracy to less than 0.2%.

The HiMod has excellent durability with superior corrosion resistance and IP68 Protection Class. The installation procedure is completely ‘non-intrusive’ and adjustment of end positions can be achieved without opening the actuator. This, together with a doublesealed electro-connection compartment, guarantees that electronic components are kept safe from harmful environmental contamination.

SIPOS are so confident in the quality of the HiMod that they offer a five year warranty for motor and gearbox components.
