AUMA SQ.2 / SQR.2 part-turn actuators with integral AM 01.1 / AMExC 01.1 actuator controls (SFC version) are robust, self-locking electric actuators designed for precise 90° operation of industrial valves. Available in sizes SQ 05.2–SQ 14.2 (and explosion-proof SQEx / SQREx equivalents), they deliver reliable open/close or modulating duty while supporting functional safety requirements to IEC 61508 / IEC 61511. The SFC designation confirms that safety figures have been calculated via FMEDA for the “Safe end position feedback" safety function.

Industrial process valves requiring functional safety (SIS), on/off and modulating control in oil & gas, chemical, water treatment, power generation, and general industry. Suitable for both standard and hazardous areas (Ex versions).
Q: What does SFC mean?
A: Safety Figure Calculated – safety data derived from FMEDA using field and generic data.
Q: Can I use fieldbus or analog position feedback for safety?
A: No. Only the directly wired end-position switch signals are safety-related.
Q: Is the actuator self-locking?
A: Yes, for the listed SQ / SQR / SQEx / SQREx ranges.
