Introduction
The Series 247 Hydraulic Actuators are double-acting, single-ended, heavy-duty
actuators that operate under precision servovalve control in MTS closed-loop
servohydraulic systems. Typical applications for the actuators include structural
and static testing where a long stroke is required. Series 247 Hydraulic Actuators
are routinely used in systems requiring precision force generation and accurate
control of piston rod displacement.
