Installation
Disposal
AM E 13SU
Mechanical
The actuator should be mounted with the valve
stem in either horizontal position or pointing
upwards.
The actuator is fixed to the valve body by means
of a mounting nut which requires
32 mm screw key. The nut should be tightened
with a torque of max. 25 Nm.
The actuator must be dismantled and the
elements sorted into various material groups
before disposal.
AM E 13SU
Electrical
Electrical connections can be accessed by
removing the cover.
Two M16×1.5 cable entries are provided.
However, in order to maintain the enclosure IP
rating an appropriate cable gland must be used.
Data sheet Actuators for modulating control AME 13 SU/SD-1
DIP switch setting
The actuator has a function selection DIP switch
under the removable cover.
The switch provides the following functions:
• SW1: U/I - Input signal type selector:
If set to OFF position, voltage input is selected.
If set to ON position, current input is selected.
• SW2: 0/2 - Input signal range selector:
If set to OFF position, the input signal is in the
range from 2-10 V (voltage input) or from 4-20
mA (current input).
If set to ON position, the input signal is in the
range from 0-10 V (voltage input) or from 0-20
mA (current input).
• SW3: D/I - Direct or inverse acting selector:
If set to OFF position, the actuator is direct acting
(stem retracts as voltage increases).
If the actuator is set to ON position, the actuator
is inverse acting (stem extends as voltage
increases).
• SW4: —/Seq - Normal or sequential mode
selector:
If set to OFF position, the actuator is working
normally in 0(2)-10V or 0(4)-20mA range.
If set to ON position, the actuator is working in
a sequential mode with its range dependent on
the position of SW 4.
• SW6: Proportional/Floating point -
Modulating or 3-point mode selector:
If set to ON position, the actuator can operate
as Floating point actuator. Power supply should
be connected on SN and SP ports. On port 1 or 3
24 VAC signal is connected for rising or lowering
of actuator. Return signal X indicates the correct
position.
If set to OFF position, the actuator operates on
modulating input signal.
• SW7: LOG/LIN- Input signal range in sequential
mode:
If set to ON position, the flow through the valve
is equal percentage to the control signal.
If set to OFF position, the valve position is linear
acc. to the control signal.
• SW8:
Set to ON for valve bodies 1/2” to 1-1/4” HF. The
actuator will modulate on max stem travel of
4.5mm.
Set to OFF for valve body 1/2” Low flow. The
actuator will modulate on max stem travel of
2.5mm.
• SW9: Reset:
Toggling the switch will cause the actuator to go
through an auto-calibration cycle.
Function test
The indicator light shows whether the positioner
is in operation or not. Moreover, the indicator
shows the control status and faults.
Constant light
• SW5: 0-5 V/5-10 V - Input signal range in
sequential mode:
If set to OFF position, the actuator is working in
sequential range 0(2)-5 (6) V or 0(4)-10 (12) mA.
If set to ON position, the actuator is working in
sequential range; 5(6)-10 V or 10(12)-20 mA

Wiring
24 VAC
Automatic calibrate feature
When power is first applied, the actuator will
automatically adjust to the length of the valve
stroke. Subsequently, the self stroking feature
can be re-initialised by changing position of DIP
SW9.

Diagnostic LED
The red diagnostic LED is located on the pcb
under the cover. It provides indication of
three operational states: Actuator Healthy
(Permanently ON), Self Stroking (Flashes once per
second), Error (Flashes 3 times per second - seek
technical assistance).
Commissioning
Complete the mechanical and electrical
installation and perform the necessary checks
and tests:
•
Isolate control medium. (e.g. calibrate
in a steam application without suitable
mechanical isolation could cause a hazard).
•
Apply the power. Note that the actuator will
now perform the self stroking function.
•
Apply the appropriate control signal and
check the valve stem direction is correct for
the application.
•
Ensure that the actuator drives the valve over
its full stroke, by applying the appropriate
control signal. This action will set the valve
stroke length.
The unit is now fully commissioned.
Commissioning/testing feature
The actuator can be driven to the fully open or
closed positions (depending on valve type) by
connecting SN to terminals 1 or 3.
Data sheet Actuators for modulating control AME 13 SU/SD-1
Manual overrideOn spring versions manual override is achieved
by disconnecting the power supply, removing
the cover and inserting a 6 mm Allen key (not
supplied) for AME 13 SU/SD-1, into the top of the
positioning spindle and turning the key against
the spring. Observe the direction of rotation
symbol. To hold a manual override position, the
key must be wedged.
If manual override has been used then X and
Y signal are not correct until the actuator
reaches its end position. If this is not
accepted reset the actuator.
