INTAKE Ⅱ Actuator

INTAKE Ⅱ Actuator | High-Reliability Automotive Air Intake Control | 360° Rotation, Low Noise

Manufacturer: Zhengzhou Junchi Tech Co., Ltd.
Product Category: Automotive HVAC Actuators / Air Intake Control Systems
Application: Fresh/Recirculation Air Flaps, Engine Intake Manifolds, Cabin Air Quality Systems


Product Overview

Zhengzhou Junchi Tech Co., Ltd. introduces the INTAKE Ⅱ Actuator, a specialized electromechanical solution designed for precise control of automotive air intake systems. As a core component in modern Vehicle Climate Control and Engine Management systems, this actuator manages the critical switching between fresh air and recirculation modes, ensuring optimal cabin air quality and HVAC efficiency.

Building on our expertise in automotive electronics and new energy products, the INTAKE Ⅱ series combines robust torque output with ultra-low power consumption. Engineered to operate seamlessly within a voltage range of DC 7V to 15V, it guarantees reliable performance even during vehicle cold starts or voltage fluctuations. With a full 360° rotation capability and a defined two-position stop mechanism, it offers versatile installation options for various air flap configurations while maintaining strict positional accuracy.

Designed for the rigorous demands of the automotive industry, the INTAKE Ⅱ Actuator delivers silent operation (≤47 dB) and withstands extreme environmental conditions from -30°C to +75°C, making it an ideal choice for both traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles and New Energy Vehicles (NEVs).


Key Features – Technical Advantages

1. Optimized for Air Intake Applications

Unlike generic motors, the INTAKE Ⅱ is specifically calibrated for air flap actuation. Its two-position stop logic ensures that the intake door snaps securely into “Fresh” or “Recirculate” positions, preventing air leakage and ensuring rapid response to driver inputs or automatic air quality sensor signals (e.g., detecting exhaust fumes).

2. Robust Start-Up Performance

A common failure point in automotive actuators is the inability to start under load in varying temperatures. The INTAKE Ⅱ features a low Start Voltage of ≤7V and delivers a high Start Torque of 1.5 N·m at room temperature. This ensures the actuator can overcome stiff linkage or frozen flaps immediately upon ignition, a critical safety and comfort feature in cold climates.

3. Energy Efficiency – Low Heat Generation

With a Rated Current of only 0.15A under full load (0.3 N·m) and a mere 0.05A at no-load, this actuator minimizes electrical draw from the vehicle’s battery. This efficiency is particularly vital for Electric Vehicles (EVs), where every watt saved contributes to extended driving range. The low current also reduces internal heat generation, enhancing long-term durability.

4. Silent Operation (NVH Compliant)

Interior noise reduction is a priority for premium vehicle experiences. The INTAKE Ⅱ Actuator operates at a whisper-quiet ≤47 dB(A) (measured at 100mm). This ensures that the switching of air intake modes is virtually inaudible to passengers, maintaining a serene cabin environment.

5. Wide Environmental Tolerance

Validated for usage temperatures between -30°C and +75°C and storage up to +80°C, the internal components utilize high-grade lubricants and materials that resist thermal degradation. This reliability aligns with Zhengzhou Junchi Tech’s commitment to producing components that last the lifetime of the vehicle.

Applications in Automotive Systems

The INTAKE Ⅱ Actuator is a versatile component used in several critical subsystems:

  • HVAC Recirculation Control: Automatically switches between fresh outside air and recirculated cabin air based on air quality sensor data (e.g., closing intake when heavy traffic pollution is detected).
  • Engine Air Intake Manifolds: Controls flap valves to optimize airflow dynamics for different engine loads and RPM ranges, improving fuel efficiency and throttle response.
  • Cabin Air Purification Systems: Works in tandem with PM2.5 filters and ionizers by sealing the intake loop during purification cycles.
  • Battery Thermal Management (EVs): Regulates airflow into battery cooling packs, ensuring batteries operate within optimal temperature windows.
