Damcos™ BRC Double-Acting Rotary Actuator
Put your trust in 30 years of proven performance. Only Damcos Actuators have the original helical spline technique that deliver balanced high torque without the need for large displacement. The Damcos BRC is a double-acting balanced rotary actuator that operates at a standard working pressure of 135 bar. It maintains a constant high torque output throughout the 90 degree rotation. The BRC actuator comes in various sizes from 125 to 32000 with torque ranges from 125 to 32000 Nm
The Damcos™ BRC Double-Acting Rotary Actuator, designed by Emerson, is a high-performance hydraulic actuator engineered to provide precise, reliable rotary motion for valve control in marine, offshore, and industrial automation systems. This double-acting actuator uses hydraulic pressure on both sides of the piston to operate the valve — ensuring consistent torque output in both opening and closing directions, even under extreme operating conditions. The BRC series is renowned for its compact, modular design, rugged construction, and maintenance-free performance, making it one of the most trusted rotary actuators in critical flow control systems. Built for quarter-turn valve applications, the Damcos™ BRC actuator delivers smooth, accurate, and repeatable movement, ensuring optimal control of ball, butterfly, and plug valves. Its fully enclosed and corrosion-resistant housing makes it ideal for use in harsh offshore, marine, and chemical environments.
