could damage the product or cause a hazardous
condition.
2. Check the ratings given in the instructions and on the
product to make sure the product is suitable for your
application.
3. Installer must be a trained, experienced flame
safeguard control technician.
4. After installation is complete, check out product
operation as provided in these instructions.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Can cause serious injury or death.
Disconnect power supply before making wiring
connections to prevent electrical shock and equipment
damage.

IMPORTANT
1. All wiring must comply with all applicable electrical
codes, ordinances, and regulations. All wiring must
be NEC Class 1.
2. Voltage and frequency of the power supply connected
to this control must agree with those marked on the
device.
3. Loads connected to the Auxiliary Switch and/or Proofof-Closure Switch, if used, must not exceed the ratings given in the Specifications section.
Install Valve
The actuator is mounted directly on the valve bonnet after the
valve is installed in the gas supply line. Refer to the instructions
packed with the gas valve for installation details. When
installing the gas valve, make sure:
1. Sufficient clearance is left to install and service the actuator.
2. Ambient temperatures at the valve location do not
exceed actuator ratings. See Specifications section.
3. Position of the valve permits hookup to the damper if one
is controlled.
Install Accessory Switches (If
Needed)
An spdt switch can be installed to operate an auxiliary load up
to 1/2 hp (0.37 kW). See Table 5. The switch can be adjusted
to operate at any point in the valve stroke.
A Proof-of-Closure Switch can also be installed with a V5055/
V5097C or E Valve (with double seal) on any V4055 Actuator
to provide a valve seal overtravel interlock. The spdt
Proof-of-Closure Switch is installed to make or break a circuit
when the valve is in the closed position. The switch is not
adjustable.
NOTE: Mark the actuator or valve to indicate any changes
made.
To install the switches:
1. Remove the actuator faceplate (two screws).
2. Remove the silver-colored barrier to expose the actuator
stem.
3. Insert the Auxiliary Switch in the position indicated in Fig.
2. Fasten with two screws through the actuator base.
4. Insert the Proof-of-Closure Switch in the position shown
in Fig. 2. The switch mounts against the side of the
actuator housing. The mounting holes are spaced to
assure mounting the switch in the correct position.
Fasten with two screws through the actuator base. (The
Proof-of-Closure Switch is not adjustable.)
5. If only one switch is used, install the narrow barrier
included with the switch in the unused space.
6. Mount the actuator before making wiring connections
and adjustments to the Auxiliary Switch.
Mount Actuator on Valve
1. Check the final position of the valve body to be sure that
the actuator is in the proper position when mounted on
the valve. This is especially important when the actuator
is used to drive a damper.
2. If two smaller sized valves are mounted very closely
together, as in an Industrial Risk Insurers approved type
of valve train, it may be necessary to mount the
actuators off center to provide adequate clearance.

WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Can cause serious injury or death.
Disconnect power supply before making wiring
connections to prevent electrical shock and equipment
damage.
Wiring must comply with all applicable electrical codes,
ordinances and regulations. Wiring to the actuator must be
NEC Class 1.
Connect the power supply to terminals 1 and 2 on the V4055
terminal strip. Refer to Fig. 4 for Auxiliary Switch connections
and Fig. 5 for Max Flow Limit Switch connections. For typical
system hookups, refer to Fig. 6 and to instructions packed with
the device used to control the valve.
When all wiring connections are complete, replace the actuator
faceplate.
CAUTION
Operation Hazard.
Improper wiring can cause improper and
dangerous operation.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing
valves. Wiring errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation.
NOTE: Pipe sealant is required on the conduit threads of
actuators with NEMA 4 enclosures.
Adjust Auxiliary Switch (If Used)
The Auxiliary Switch is adjustable throughout the stroke of
the actuator. With the switch installed in the actuator, turn
the adjusting screw (see Fig. 2) clockwise to cause the
switch to operate earlier in the stroke or counterclockwise to cause the switch to operate later in the

CHECKOUT AND SERVICE
CAUTION
Equipment Damage Hazard.
Unskilled technicians can cause equipment
damage.
Only a trained, experienced, flame safeguard
technician should check out and service this control.
Checkout
After the installation is complete, cycle the valve several times
with the manual fuel shutoff cock closed before testing the
system in actual operation.
Service
The actuator is not field repairable except for replacing the
Auxiliary Switch, Max Flow Limit Switch or Proof-of-Closure
Switch. See Installation section for procedure. Do not
disassemble the valve actuator.
If the actuator fails to operate properly, replace it.
1. Turn off the gas supply at the manual shutoff valve
located upstream from the valve(s) being serviced.
2. Shut off all electrical power to the valve actuator(s).
3. Mark and disconnect the wires from the actuator termi-
nals. Remove conduit and disengage the damper linkage assembly (if applicable).
4. Loosen the two set screws from the valve to lift off the
actuator.
5. If the actuator is to be replaced and it did not leak
hydraulic fluid, skip to Step 11.
NOTE: It is good practice to inspect the inside of the
valve whenever the actuator is replaced. To do
so, remove the bonnet assembly, inspect the
valve and bonnet. If all is well, proceed to Step 7.
7. If the valve bonnet assembly is in good condition and is
not replaced, replace the bonnet seal. Do not reuse the
old bonnet seal. See Table 9 below for the seal number.
8. Coat seals with grease provided and position in valve
body/bonnet assembly.
9. Carefully seat the bonnet assembly on the valve body.
Be sure the seals are in their proper position. On those
valves with a spring below the disc, be sure the spring is
centered in the indentation on the inside of the valve
body.
10. After positioning the bonnet assembly, replace the
screws removed earlier.
NOTE: When replacing the bonnet assembly on the 4-
inch valve, draw it evenly into the valve body.
Finger-tighten the eight bolts. Draw the bonnet
assembly into the valve by tightening, in order,
bolts 1, 5, 7 and 3 (two turns each). Repeat until
the bonnet assembly is seated. Tighten the
remaining bolts. Torque the bolts as follows:
Val ve Si z eTorque
3/4 in. (19 mm) to 1-1/2 in. (38 mm)55 in.-lb.
2 in. (51 mm) to 4 in. (102 mm)75 in.-lb.
11.Remount the actuator on the bonnet assembly. Tighten
the two set screws (50-60 inch pounds).
12. Replace the damper crank arm assembly.
13. Re-attach the wires removed from the actuator terminals
and turn on the electrical power.
14. With the gas still off, cycle the actuator to check for
proper mechanical operation.
CAUTION
Be sure to perform a bonnet seal and seat leak
check after installation.
Be sure to read and follow all instructions that come
with the actuators, valves, seal and bonnet kits.
6. If the actuator leaked hydraulic fluid onto the valve (the
fluid is red), it must be cleaned off from the valve and
bonnet assembly.
a. Wipe off the outer valve body.
b. Remove the valve bonnet bolts and lift off the bonnet.
NOTE: V5055/V5097C and E Valves have additional
internal springs that will push the bonnet up as
the bolts are loosened.
c. Inspect the inside of the valve.
IMPORTANT
If fluid is present on the inside surfaces of the valve
body or bonnet surfaces, the bonnet assembly or
entire valve must be replaced. See Table 8 below for
the bonnet assembly part number.
d. If the inside surfaces are clear of hydraulic fluid,
clean the bonnet assembly and be sure to remove all
hydraulic fluid from the inside and outside of the
actuator mounting curb. This is the “cup-like” area
around the valve stem. Avoid using a cleaning solution as it may damage the rubber seals used in the
valve.
