APPLICATION
The ML6420 Non-Spring Return Electric Linear Valve
Actuators are floating control actuators used with controllers
that provide a switched or floating single-pole double-throw
(spdt) output. These actuators operate standard Honeywell
valves in heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC)
applications.
The ML7420 Non-Spring Return Electric Linear Valve
Actuators are modulating control actuators used with
controllers that provide an analog output of 0 to 10 Vdc or 2 to
10 Vdc. These actuators operate standard Honeywell valves
in HVAC applications. An internal selector plug can be used to
reverse the direction of action.
• Synchronous motor.
• Corrosion resistant design.
• Maintenance free.
• Direct/reverse acting with ML7420.
• Position feedback signal included with ML7420.
• Selectable 0 to 10 Vdc or 2 to 10 Vdc signal input with
ML7420.

INSTALLATION
When Installing this Product...
1. Read instructions carefully. Failure to follow them could
damage the product or cause a hazardous condition.
2. Check ratings and description given in the specifications
to make sure the product is suitable for your application.
3. Installer must be a trained, experienced service
technician.
4. After installation is complete, check out product
operation as provided in these instructions.
Equipment Damage Hazard.
Can damage actuator due to condensation or a
valve gland leak.
Install the actuator in a position above horizontal.
Mounting
1. Place the actuator on the valve with the U-bolt around
the valve collar. See Fig. 2.
2. Place the U-bolt against the valve collar and secure the
actuator to the valve by turning each U-bolt nut clockwise.
NOTE: To assure even pressure on the collar, first
tighten the nuts finger-tight and then alternate
turning each U-bolt nut until both are snug.
3. Push aside the stem button retaining clip and hold. See
Fig. 3.
4. Lift valve stem until the head of the valve stem button is
inside the large slot of the stem button retaining clip on
the actuator.
5. Release the stem button retaining clip to secure the stem
button. Check to make certain the stem button is secured
by the retaining clip.
6. Remove the cover from the actuator using a Phillips or
crosspoint screwdriver. See Fig. 4.
