The Y20EBD Valve Linkage converts the rotary motion of an M100
Series Motor Actuator to a linear movement in order to operate several
types of valves.
A rack and pinion drive mechanism provides the linear movement. The
rack assembly contains a spring that, when compressed by over travel, will
maintain valve close off to rated values. The pinion gear may be reversed
for manual operation with a 3/8 inch socket drive extension for service of
controlled equipment.

Note: The Y20EBD linkage kit can be used on Barber-Colman
1-1/2 to 2 inch valves. Use the grooved adapter bushing provided
with the linkage kit for V-90 Series and the mid-bracket position.
Larger Barber-Colman valves can mount onto the Y20EBD yoke
directly; however, adding locally purchased large washers under
the linkage bracket to prevent paint damage is recommended.
A selection of models are available to adapt M100 Motor Actuators to
several types of valves.
A Y20EBD-4 linkage is available to enable an M150 Motor Actuator to
operate S91 auxiliary switches for automatic heating/cooling changeover
applications. The Y20EBD-4 allows additional over travel after valve
close off for switch operation. See Y20 Series Linkage Kits ProductBulletin for a complete description.
Y20EBA valve linkage kits are available to adapt the M100 Series
Actuators to valves made by other manufacturers. See Y20 Series LinkageKits Product Bulletin for more information.
Refer to the technical bulletin provided with the motor actuator for
information on wiring the motor actuator and related adjustments.

Glossary
The following terminology is used in these instructions:
CW--Clockwise refers to the direction of rotation of the actuator shaft as
seen from the load end.
Zero Position--The fully counterclockwise position of the actuator
shaft--the de-energized position of a spring return actuator.
Stem Up--The initial position of the stem is up before operating the valve.
Stem Down--The initial position of the stem is down before operating the
valve.
Push/Drive Down to Open--Pushing or driving the stem down opens
the valve.
Push/Drive Down to Close--Pushing or driving the stem down closes
the valve.
Pull/Drive Up to Open--Pulling or driving the stem up opens the valve.
Pull/Drive Up to Close--Pulling or driving the stem up closes the valve.
Stem Up/Drive Down--The stem is initially in the up position and the
motor actuator through the linkage will drive the stem down.
Stem Down/Drive Up--The stem is initially in the down position and the
motor actuator through the linkage will drive the stem up.
Three Way Mixing Valve--A valve with two inlets and one outlet. Valve
seats on both stem up and stem down travel.
Three Way Diverting Valve--A valve with one inlet and two outlets.
Valve seats on both stem up and stem down travel.

Installation
Overview
Upright mounting of the motor actuator is recommended.
When valve mounting, do not mount below the horizontal plane of the
valve piping to prevent damage to the motor actuator if the valve leaks or
develops condensation.
Do not install the motor actuator in atmospheres with explosive vapors or
escaping gases, or where vapors having deteriorating properties might
attack the actuator’s metal parts.
Do not install where the ambient temperature of the surrounding area falls
below -40°F (-40°C) for non-spring return motor actuators, or
-35°F (-37°C) for spring return motor actuators. The maximum ambient
temperature of the surrounding area of the motor actuator should not
exceed 125°F (52°C).
Valve medium temperatures above 250°F (121°C) are permissible only if
the maximum ambient temperature at the motor actuator is less than 105°F
(41°C).
Use insulating washers furnished with the linkage kit for valve medium
temperature applications over 250°F (121°C).
Locate the motor actuator where the shaft and wiring terminals are
accessible.
The non-spring return M100 Actuator will hold its position if power is
removed. The spring return actuator will return to its zero position if
power is removed. Both types will hold their current position if the
control signal is satisfied.
Note: The spring return is intended only as a safety feature to drive the
actuator to its zero position in the event power is interrupted or
turned off.
There are three sections to the installation of the Y20EBD valve linkage
kit:
1.Configure and mount the yoke on the valve.
2.Mount the actuator and linkage assembly to the yoke and connect to
the valve.
3.Adjust the travel limits to actuate the over travel spring and seat the
valve.

Configuration
and Mounting
Valve Lift
The information obtained in the following steps will be used for the travel
adjustments later. The reason that these measurements are here is that it is
easier to take the measurements prior to installing the linkage and actuator
than after.
For valves with various lift requirements, the actuator will require a
change in travel by 15° for each additional 0.1 inch (2.54 mm) of lift
required.
To determine the lift required:
Valve Stem
Full Down
Valve Stem
Full Up
Figure 2: Stem Travel Measurement
1.Measure the valve stem length in the full down position as shown in
Figure 2.
2.Measure the valve stem length in the full up position as shown in
Figure 2.
3.Subtract the full down position from the full up position, this will
provide the valve lift.
4.Divide the valve lift by 0.1 inch.
5.Multiply the result by 15°.
6.Provide additional 15° rotation on 2-way valves and 30° additional
rotation on 3-way valves for over travel seating.
Note: Maximum actuator rotation is 270°, which allows up to 1.7 inches
lift on 2-way valves and 1.6 inches lift on 3-way valves.
Note: VT valves have only 5/16 inch lift which requires a reduction of
actuator travel by 25° from factory setting.
Record the value for use with the travel adjustments.

Configuring Yoke
When configuring the yoke, two areas have to be considered:
•the distance the actuator will be from the valve (height)
•the direction of drive the actuator is going to provide to the valve
Height
To determine the height:
