Installation Mechanical
The actuator should be mounted with the valve
stem (use a 4 mm Allen key - not supplied) in
either horizontal position or pointing upwards.
Use a M8/SW13 key (not supplied) to fit the
actuator to the valve body. Allow for necessary
clearance for maintenance purposes.

Red rings position indication should be pushed
together before commissioning. They indicate
the position of valve opening degree after selfadjustment.
Arrange proper valve insulation in order to avoid
direct heat transfer toward actuator.
Electrical
Electrical connections can be accessed by
removing the cover.
Two M16 × 1.5 cable entries are provided. Both
entries are provided with a rubber grommet
for use with flexible cable. Note that in order to
maintain the enclosure IP rating, appropriate
cable glands must be used.

The actuator has a selection of DIP switches
under the removable cover.
The switch provides the following functions:
DIP1: U/I - Input signal type selector:
• If set to OFF position, input signal Y is set to
voltage (Y).
If set to ON position, input signal Y is set to be
current (mA).
DIP2: 0/2 - Input signal range selector:
• If set to OFF position, the input signal is in the
range from 2 V to 10 V (voltage input) or from
4 mA to 20 mA (current input). If set to ON
position, the input signal is in the range from
0 V to 10 V (voltage input) or from 0 mA to 20
mA (current input).
DIP3: D/I - Direct or inverse acting selector:
• If set to OFF position, the actuator is direct
acting (actuator’s stem extends by voltage
increase). If actuator is set to ON position the
actuator is inverse acting (actuator’s stem
retracts by voltage increase).
DIP4: —/Seq - Normal or sequential mode
selector:
• Two actuators can be set to work parallel with
one control signal. If the SEQUENTIAL is set
than an actuator responds to split control
signal (see 0(2) V … 5(6 V) / 5(6) V … 10 V).
NOTE: This comb ination works in combina tion with DIP5: 0(2) V
… 5(6 V) / 5(6) V … 10 V
