The Danfoss BRCF 500 B1 is a high-performance hydraulic single-acting balanced rotary actuator designed for fail-safe 90° quarter-turn valve control. Engineered to return valves automatically to their safe (default) position in the event of hydraulic pressure loss, this actuator is essential for emergency shutdown (ESD) systems in marine, offshore, and industrial applications.
With a test pressure of 250 BAR, the BRCF 500 B1 (Part No: 160N4179) offers compact, reliable, and rugged performance even in the most demanding environments. This actuator is part of the trusted BRCF series by Danfoss/Damcos, widely used in ship automation and valve remote control systems.
