SpaceLogic (Forta) M800 is selected for higher-load control valves — commercial buildings, industrial installations, larger substations and central cooling systems where 800 N force and wider stroke (up to 52 mm) are needed with medium-to-large DN globe valves. It is a standard pick with Schneider V241 (DN25-DN100 2-way), V311 and V321 (3-way) globe valves.
The brushless DC motor with microprocessor control delivers long service life without sensor wear. Field-selectable control signal (0-10 / 2-10 / 0-5 / 5-10 V DC or 3-point) lets the same actuator work in modern SpaceLogic BMS installations and in retrofit projects with Danfoss ECL, Siemens Climatix, Trend IQ or older Ouman controllers.

By two key parameters: force 800 vs 400 N and stroke up to 52 vs 32 mm. M800 is intended for larger DN valves (DN40+) and valves with high Δp at the control point. Electronic control module, housing and configurability are identical.
The M800 has 3 auto-selected speed steps: 15 s (stroke 9-25 mm), 20 s (25-32 mm) and 30 s (32-52 mm). The selection is automatic based on the auto-calibrated stroke length — no manual configuration required.
No — 8800310030 is a non-spring return model. The valve stays at its last position on power loss. If fail-safe is required, choose M800-S1 (spring-open) or M800-S2 (spring-closed) variants.
Manufacturer-recommended 50 VA transformer per M800 actuator. For a group of 2-3 actuators — a 100 VA transformer with headroom. Inrush current is significant, so the transformer size matters more than for the M400 (7 VA continuous draw).
Yes — with the AV-822 adaptor kit (Schneider F-27702). This kit is specifically designed to mount an M800A / M800 onto older VB-9313 DN65-DN100 globe valves in retrofit projects where the valve is kept and only the actuation is upgraded to SpaceLogic BMS.
