pdf Metron Actuator Model DR2003/C3
The Metron Actuator allows the MJC to be activated by a electrical input as well as by heat.
Metron Actuators (Type DR2003/C3) are designed to produce a high mechanical work output by ignition of a very small quantity of explosive which produces a high pressure gas forcing a piston to extend from the body of the device.
They are electrically actuated and will operate within milliseconds of receiving the appropriate impulse; a rate which is almost impossible to achieve with a mechanical source of energy. Their compact size, high reliability and good environmental resistance make Metron Actuators ideal for use in Fire Protection, Security, Safety and Aerospace applications.
