Semi-rotary actuator for electricians
The Festo DSM-6-180-P-A is a semi-rotary actuator sized for electrical installation tasks. It delivers a 180 degree rotation angle in a compact Size 6 housing. The unit arrives new in a single pack box with a red finish. Part number 173196 identifies this specific configuration.
Suited for panel builders and maintenance crews
This actuator fits control cabinets and machine builds that need limited rotary motion. It is not for applications requiring continuous rotation or linear travel. Buyers needing higher torque or different mounting patterns should look at other Festo series.
180 degree rotation angle decides fit
The fixed 180 degree swing is the critical parameter for selection. Verify the required angular travel matches this value exactly before ordering. The Size 6 designation confirms the physical envelope for your design layout.
