8. Regulating Linkage

Altogether, this type of actuator provides the following advantages:
- High regulation power working in both directions.
- Extremely low current consumption during steady state and relatively low current
consumption on change of load.
- Indifference to slow voltage changes of the supply; abrupt voltage changes cause governor
disturbances.
7.2. Installation
The actuator must be mounted firmly on the engine by means of reinforced brackets.
Unstable arrangements, as caused by weak bracket material or missing stiffenings, have to
be avoided by all means; they are bound to intensify vibrations, which will lead to
premature wear of the actuator and the connecting linkage!
