They consist of an off-the-shelf R\/C servo installed in a machined enclosure with a titanium output shaft and waterproof connector. This architecture leverages decades of servo development in the R\/C industry to provide extremely high reliability as well as almost limitless options for speed, torque, travel distance, and other features, all at a fraction of the cost of other subsea actuators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe offer four models of Underwater Servos, each available with an all-acetal enclosure rated to 200 meters depth or a combination acetal\/anodized aluminum enclosure rated to 400 meters depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe SER-2010 (200m) and SER-2011 (400m) feature the Hitec D954SW R\/C servo.

This servo produces 3.3 Nm of torque and offers an extended travel range (up to ± 3.5 full turns of rotation with position control or continuous rotation with speed control). It uses a brushless motor and magnetic encoder, eliminating the most common causes of servo failure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe SER-2030 (200m) and SER-2031 (400m) feature the DB961WP servo, which produces 5.4 Nm of torque and uses a brushless motor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe SER-2130 (200m) and SER-2131 (400m) feature the MDB961WP-CAN servo, which produces 5.9 Nm of torque.

If you require increased travel or any other changes to the servo's programmable parameters, we will happily program the servo per your specifications for free. Simply email sales@bluetrailengineering.com after placing your order. Alternatively, you may program the servos using the appropriate programmer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWe also offer the SER-2000 (200m) and SER-2001 (400m), kit options that allows users to select and install their own standard-sized R\/C servo – including PWM, CAN, or serial servos – making this the most inexpensive and flexible option for underwater actuation. The kits come with the output shaft, bearings, and seal installed, and the user completes assembly with the servo and connector of their choice. Servos must be of the “standard” size (20-mm width) and have a 25-tooth spline.

The screws should have between 12 and 16 mm of engagement in the plastic. The holes in the sides of the servo go all the way through the servo and are 3.2 mm in diameter, so use M3 screws longer than the width of the servo (which is 32 mm) to mount in this direction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How do I mount things to the output shaft?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e The best way is to use our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/titanium-servo-hub\"\u003eTitanium Servo Hub\u003c\/a\u003e. Or you can use any type of 6-mm set-screw shaft coupling (including a homemade one), but be aware that the output shaft is titanium and you will get some amount of galvanic corrosion if you put a different type of metal in contact with it. You can also use a hub like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.servocity.com\/6mm-d-bore-hubs\/\"\u003ethese\u003c\/a\u003e from ServoCity, but again, be sure that the materials are suitable for your application (putting aluminum in contact with titanium in seawater for an extended period of time is not a good idea).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Trail Engineering","offers":[{"title":"SER-2030","offer_id":58747190542710,"sku":"SER-2030","price":465.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"SER-2031","offer_id":58747190575478,"sku":"SER-2031","price":485.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1017\/5745\/2662\/files\/e4c7c5_9c3534525f8a4ce791c3690d9086474a_mv2_c51f0614-13a5-4eb0-ad56-fe5b80462da8.jpg?v=1789584792","url":"https:\/\/www.substore.fi\/products\/underwater-servo-ser-203x-brushless-high-torque","provider":"Sub Marine Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
