Before You Start
Section: 1 Before You Start
This section explains:
• Base safety procedures.
• Where to nd detailed information relating safety.
• Storage guidelines.
Installation, adjustment, putting into service, use, assembly, disassembly and maintenance
of the pneumatic actuator must be performed by qualied personnel.
NOTICE
Failure to follow the above guidelines will void warranty.
WARNING
Actuator must be isolated both pneumatically and electrically before any (dis)assembly
starts. Before mounting or (dis)assembly, the actuator consult the relevant sections of this
manual.
1.1 Installation, Operation and Maintenance
Reference Documents
Before you start, read the following documents:
• All chapters in this manual.
• Safety Guide (Document No. DOC.SG.EF.EN).
For Safety Instrumented Systems application, read the following document:
• SIL Safety Manual EL-O-Matic F-Series (Document No. DOC.SILM.EF.EN).
NOTICE
Failure to read the Safety Guide will void the warranty.
Not following the instructions of the Safety Guide can lead to failure of the product and
harm to personnel or equipment.
1.2 Warehouse Storage
• All actuators should be stored in a clean, dry warehouse, free from excessive vibra-
tion and rapid temperature changes.
• All actuators should not be stored directly to the oor surface - it must be placed in
racks/shelves or use a pallet.

• All actuators should be stored in a clean, dry warehouse, free from excessive vibra-
tion and rapid temperature changes.
• Prevent moisture or dirt from entering the actuator. Plug or seal both air connec-
tion ports.
NOTICE
Failure to follow the above guidelines (Warehouse and On Site Storages) will void warranty.

2.1 Identification
The EL-O-Matic F-Series Rack and Pinion actuators are available as double-acting or springreturn versions. 13 models are available, ranging from 12 Nm to 4000 Nm (106 to 35000
lbf.in) nominal torque output.
The EL-O-Matic F-Series uses standardized interfaces for solenoid, switchbox or positioner
mounting (VDI/VDE3845; NAMUR). The valve interface is equipped with an insert in the
pinion bottom that allows both ISO5211 or DIN3337 mounting.
The springs in the spring-return version allow a fail action in case of loss of air supply
pressure (Fail-to-Close or Fail-to-Open).
As from size FD150 double-acting versions have at end caps to reduce actuator length
and internal air volume.

2.2 Intended Use
The EL-O-Matic F Rack and Pinion actuators are intended for the automation and operation
of quarter-turn valves like Buttery, Ball and Plug valves.
Rack and Pinion actuators can also be used to operate dampers or any other quarter-turn
applications.

The valve is closed after
a clockwise rotation.
The valve is open after
a counterclockwise rotation.
Section: 4 Installation
This section explains:
• The actuator rotation direction.
• In which position the actuator will end after a failure.
• Principles of operation:
— Solenoid operation.
— Double acting and Spring return operation.
• Assembly codes.
• Actuator to valve assembly.
4.1 Before You Start
SAFETY
In case of an air or electrical failure, it is important to know the behavior of the actuator.
Before mounting the actuator on a valve, consult the following sections below.
4.2 Actuator Rotation Direction
4.2.1 Valve Rotation
For the following paragraphs we assume that valves rotate as indicated in gure 3.

All actuators can be either piped with solid or exible tubing with the solenoid valve
mounted remotely from the actuator or by mounting a VDI/VDE 3845 (NAMUR) designed
solenoid valve DIRECTLY onto the NAMUR mounting pad on the side of the actuator.

1. Solenoid with ow capacity: 0.6 m3/hr
2. Pipe diameter: 6mm
3. Medium: clean air
4. Supply pressure: 5.5 bar (80psi)
5. Load: with average load
6. Stroke: 90°
7. Temperature: Room temperature
4.3.2 Ingress Protection (IP) rating
EL-O-Matic F actuators are IP66/IP67 rated. In case of IP66 or IP67 requirements, take
precautions that comply with the IP66/IP67 requirements to prevent moisture or dust from
entering the actuator through the open air exhaust port(s), either directly on the actuator
or at the exhaust ports of the connected solenoid valve.
We recommend to connect tubing to the exhaust(s) and lead this into a dry and dust free
area, or to use check valves in the exhaust.

4.3.3 Double-Acting Actuators
The operating principle, as explained here, is applicable for actuators with assembly code
CW (direct acting).
• Applying supply pressure to port A will move the pistons outward to the "Open"
position of the valve.
• Applying supply pressure to port B will move the pistons inward to the "Close" posi-
tion of the valve.
• For assembly codes CC, the operating principle is reversed (reverse acting).

4.3.4 Spring-Return Actuators
The operating principle, as explained here, is applicable for actuators with assembly code
CW (direct acting).
• Applying supply pressure to port A will move the pistons outwards to the "Open"
position of the valve.
• Venting the supply pressure from port A will cause the springs to move the pistons
inwards to the "Close" position of the valve.
• For assembly codes CC, the operating principle is reversed (reverse acting).

4.5 Actuator to Valve Installation
WARNING: MOVING PARTS
Actuator must be isolated pneumatically and electrically before any (dis)assembly starts.
Stay away from moving parts to prevent serious injuries. When test cycling the actuator
and valve assembly by applying pressure to the A or B port, be aware that there are moving
parts like pinion top, actuator to valve coupling and the valve- blade, ball, plug, etc.
NOTICE
The actuator is designed to be installed, commissioned and maintained using generic tools
like wrenches, Allen keys and screwdrivers. For the removal of inserts, a special extractor
tool can be supplied on request.
During assembly to the valve, do not hit with hammer on pinion top. This can damage the
pinion top washer and cause premature failure.
Before mounting the actuator on the valve or valve bracket, be sure that both the
actuator and the valve are in the same closed or open position.
Refer to appendix B, Tool and Torque tables, for using the right size tool.

1. Remove handle nut, handle, lock washer, and etc. from the valve if required.
2. Visually check to make sure the valve is CLOSED.

3. When required, check if the insert drive (23) is mounted. If not, use a plastic mallet
and tap slightly until the reducer square is in the required position.
Be sure that the insert is mounted at 90° or 45°. It is possible to mount the insert
turned 22.5°. This way the valve will not open or close the right way.
