1.7 General Tool Information

1.7.1 Tools: All tools/Hexagons are American Standard inch. Large adjustable wrench,
two (2) large screwdrivers, Allen wrench set, set of open/box end wrenches, rubber
or leather mallet, torque wrench (up to 1200 foot pounds / 1627 N-m), breaker
bar, small drift punch and a drive socket set. For recommended tool and wrench
sizes refer to Section 6, Tables 6.3 through 6.10.

1.8 Actuator Storage

For applications where the actuator is not placed into immediate service, it is recom­mended that the actuator be cycled with regulated clean/dry pneumatic pressure at least
once per month. Indoor storage, if available, is recommended for all actuators. Care should
be taken to plug all open ports on actuator and controls to keep out foreign particles and
moisture. Actuators should not be stored in an atmosphere that is harmful to resilient
seals. Contact factory for extended storage period.

1.9 Actuator Installation

Service Instructions

124843E Rev. C

1.9.1 Since there are many valve and actuator combinations, it is not practical to include
detailed instructions for each type. Mountings are designed to be as simple as
possible to keep the guess work out of the installation.

1.9.2 Actuators that are shipped from the factory with the travel stops adjusted for
approximately ninety degree rotation. Generally, it is necessary to make slight
travel stop adjustments once the actuator is installed onto the valve. Refer to the

valve manufacturer's recommendations for specic requirements. When the valve

has internal stops, the actuator should be adjusted at the same points.

NOTE:

The actual "stopping" should be done by the actuator. If the valve does not have
internal stops, adjust the actuator to the full open position. Using this as a reference point,
rotate the valve closed and adjust to the valve manufacturer's specications for total rota­tion.

1.9.3 Good instrument practices are also recommended. Clean/dry regulated
pneumatic pressure is essential for long service life and satisfactory operation.
It should be noted that new pneumatic lines often have scale and other debris in
them and these lines should be purged of all foreign material.

NOTE:

Scale and debris can damage control valves, solenoids, and seals.

1.10 Actuator Start-Up

1.10.1 Prestart-up checks

1. Inspect to ensure the unit has been mounted onto valve properly. Gear

ange mounting bolts, stem key, setscrew(s) are installed and secured.

Introduction

Service Instructions

124843E Rev. C August 2015

2. No tubing damaged or accessories dislodged during the shipping or
the installation.

3. Indicated position conrms valve position.

4. All switching valves in normal operating position as per
SCHEMATIC / INSTRUCTIONS

1.10.2 Check Connections

1. Pneumatic / hydraulic components connected as per schematic enclosed or
in service manual supplied.

2. Pneumatic supply connected to the identied ports.

3. Electrical connection terminals are secured.

4. Wiring as per enclosed diagram or service manual supplied.

1.10.3 When actuator is rst placed into service, it should be cycled with regulated
pneumatic pressure. This is necessary because the seals have been stationary,
causing them to take a "set". Therefore, the actuator should be operated through
several cycles to exercise the seals so as to achieve a service ready condition.

1.10.4 The actuator speed of operation is determined by a number of factors includes:

1. Power supply line length

2. Power supply line size

3. Power supply line pressure

4. Control valve and tting orice size

5. Torque requirements of the valve

6. Size of the actuator

7. Setting of speed controls

8. Hydraulic manual override (where available)

1.10.5 Due to the interaction of these variables, it is difcult to specify a "normal"
operating time. Faster operating time may be obtained by using one or more of
the following:

1. Larger supply lines

2. Larger control valve

3. Higher supply pressure *

4. Quick exhaust valves

— * Not to exceed maximum operating pressure of actuator or

control components

1.10.6 Slower operating time may be obtained by using ow control valves to meter the

exhaust. Excessive exhaust ow metering may cause erratic operation.

Section 1: Introduction

1.11 Actuator Operation

1.11.1 Controlled Operation: Controlled operation is accomplished by pressurizing and/or
depressurizing the appropriate cylinder inlet(s) of a double-acting. Do not exceed
pressures indicated on actuator nameplate.

1.11.2 Manual Operation: All pressure must be vented or equalized on both sides of the
pneumatic piston prior to manual operation.
