UW100 electric linear actuators from CONCENS for underwater robotics
Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are essential tools for deep-sea exploration, inspection, and maintenance tasks. These demanding applications require compact, robust, and watertight solutions to ensure reliable and accurate end-effector control. The UW100 electric linear actuators from CONCENS provide an efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional hydraulic systems.
The UW100 series is designed specifically for underwater use, operating at depths of up to 100 meters. Its AISI 316 stainless steel housing ensures superior corrosion resistance, while the fully sealed and pressure-compensated design guarantees long-term durability under high hydrostatic pressure and saltwater exposure.
Thanks to their slim inline design and seamless integration with control electronics, UW100 actuators are perfectly suited for space-constrained environments. They enable precise linear motion control of grippers, cutters, manipulator arms, and other tooling on ROVs or AUVs. Their stroke movement can be synchronized easily with other system components.
UW100 actuators are commonly used for opening and closing grippers, adjusting tool positions, and performing repetitive service tasks. Their precise positioning capability supports complex underwater operations such as sample collection, valve turning, and cable manipulation—all with zero risk of hydraulic fluid leakage.
Unlike hydraulic systems, electric actuators require minimal maintenance, reduce the risk of system failure, and eliminate environmental hazards. The absence of pumps, hoses, and oil reservoirs results in a streamlined actuator system with lower operational costs and increased uptime.
UW100 actuators are available with integrated Hall sensors, and optionally with built-in controllers featuring Modbus RTU, analog control, and digital I/O interfaces. These interfaces allow for plug-and-play integration with control units used in underwater robotics. Their programmable functionality enables precise, repeatable motion sequences—fully automated or remotely managed.
CONCENS actuator solutions are trusted across offshore energy, marine research, and underwater infrastructure sectors—where silent operation, uncompromising reliability, and exact movement are crucial.
The UW100 electric linear actuator represents a synergy of high-quality materials, rugged construction, and advanced technology. It’s the optimal choice for OEMs and system integrators developing subsea solutions that require accuracy, durability, and sustainability in underwater operations.
