Abstract: The invention relates to a safety controller for an actuating drive (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) for controlling a gas flow or a liquid flow in an open-loop or closed-loop manner by means of a flap (3.1, 3.2, 3.3) or a valve, in particular in the field of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, fire-protection systems, and/or room protection systems. A safety circuit (9.1, 9.2, 9.3) is implemented to ensure the energy supply in a safety operating mode if an electricity supply circuit (8.1, 8.2, 8.3) drops off or is lost. A control value output circuit (1.1, 1.2, 1.3) detects status signals, in particular signals of a sensor (11.1, 11.2, 11.3), and/or status parameters of a system and/or a specifiable setting of an adjustment device that can be actuated manually. The safety control value is set to one of at least two different control values (SW1, SW2, . . . ) depending on the status signals so that the safety position of the flap is determined adaptively.

Abstract: A DC-motor (46) actuates a highly-reduced reduction gear of an actuating drive for a flap or valve in order to regulate a gas or liquid volume flow, particularly for heating/ventilation/climatization, or fire or room protection. Current flow in the stator coils (A, B, C) is commutated in a program-controlled manner without integrated position sensors. Algorithms enable counting rotations of rotor (54) of the DC-motor (46). Problems related to the principle of motor rotation speed at low rpm are prevented. The DC-motor (46) includes a stator (44) having three stator coils (A, B, C) which extend over 3n stator poles (52), and an annular-shaped permanent magnet rotor (54) having 2m permanent magnet segments with alternating polarity (N, S), a coaxial cup-shaped external rotor (110) and a coaxial drive shaft (108), whereby n and m are whole multiplication factor numbers (1, 2, 3, 4) and are different from each other.

Abstract: A safety drive unit (1) with a safety circuit (12) that resets a flap or a valve into a specified safety position for controlling a gas or liquid volumetric flow, in particular in the field of heating, ventilation, and monitoring systems. The safety drive unit (1) comprises an actuator (14) with a controllable electric motor (28), a capacitive energy storage unit (20), and energy converter (22) with a power module, and a power supply (18). During normal operation, the electric current in the power module of the energy converter (22) is converted to a lower voltage and stored in the capacitive energy storage unit. If the voltage drops below a predetermined value or if there is a power failure, the stored electrical charge is converted back to a higher voltage by the same power module, and the electric motor (28) is activated until the specified safety position is reached.

Abstract: A safety drive unit (10) with a safety circuit (12) resets a flap or a valve into a specified safety position for controlling a gas or liquid volumetric flow, in particular in the field of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) fire protection and monitoring systems. The safety drive unit (10) essentially comprises an actuator (14) with a controllable electric motor (28), a capacitive energy storage unit (20), an energy converter (22) with a power module, and a power supply (18). During normal operation, the electric current in the power module of the energy converter (22) is converted to a lower voltage and stored in the capacitive energy storage unit (20) with at least one double-layer capacitor. If the voltage drops below a predetermined value or if there is a power failure, the stored electrical charge is converted back to a higher voltage by the same power module, and the electric motor (28) is activated until the specified safety position is reached.

Abstract: According to the invention, a DC-motor (46) actuates a highly reduced reduction gear of an actuating drive for a flap or for a valve in order to regulate a gas or liquid volume flow, in particular in the field of heating/ventilation/climatisation, or fire or room protection. The electric flow of current in the stator coils (A, B, C) is commutated in a program-controlled manner without integrated position sensors. The rotations of the rotor (54) of the DC-motor (46) can be counted by means of special algorithms. Problems related to the principle of motor rotation speed of less than approximately 200 rpm are prevented.
