Installation
MOUNTING
The outline and mounting dimensions for a standard unit
are shown on the last page of this manual. The rear cover
opposite the output shaft must have clearance so it can
be removed for adjustments and interconnect wiring.
When the actuator is directly coupled to a drive shaft, a
Jordan Controls type coupling is recommended. The
output shaft is also available with a splined output for
standard drive arms and linkage components to the
driven load.
The unit may be mounted on the standard foot mount,
the face mount around the output shaft, or on two sets of
side holes for a bracket mount. Mounting may be in any
position convenient to the driven load. When mounting
the unit, be sure that no excessive axial or side loading is
applied to the output shaft.
The limit switches and position feedback are gear connected to the actuator output shaft. Positively secure the
output shaft to the driven load shaft to prevent slippage,
which would cause misalignment or damage.
The manual handcrank is engaged for operation at all
times. When the manual override is required, the crank
Local Position Indicator: Reversible indicator.
Contactless LVDT Position Feedback: - Linear,
square, square root and field contourable cams supplied.
Potentiometer: 1000 ohm, 2 watts, 36 Vdc max.
should be turned in the appropriate direction for output
shaft movement. If during manual operation electric
power is applied to the actuator, this power cannot drive
back through the manual handcrank and harm the operator. Power must be removed or motor position overrides
manual position.
Torque of approximately seven inch pounds on the
handcrank will provide up to 2,400 inch pounds at the
output shaft. It takes approximately three full turns of the
handcrank to move the actuator output shaft one degree.
When the torque rating of the unit is reached, depending
upon the direction of cranking, the handcrank will move
in or out axially, an indication that full torque is being
delivered to the load.
The motor, limit switch, and feedback area of the actuator
depends upon the cover to maintain the NEMA Type 4
rating. This cover should be removed only when work is
being done internally, and should be reinstalled immediately upon completion.
This unit contains no internal mechanical stops. If it runs
outside of the initial factory alignment of the limit switches,
a realignment of switches and feedback may be required.
However, no internal damage will have occurred.

Installation
INSTALLATION WIRING
Typical wiring diagrams are shown on pages 7-8.
Actual wiring should follow the print supplied with
the actuator.
The wiring diagram shows the fundamental connections for the standard three-wire reversible singlephase motor, and the standard permanent magnet dc
motor. These units show an arrangement with torque
switches, four limit switches, two feedback potentiometers, and a heater. To meet special requirements,
certain items shown may not be supplied. In all
instances the wiring diagram appropriate to the
equipment will be supplied with each unit.
A barrier type terminal strip is located under the rear
cover opposite the output shaft. Two conduit entries
are located in the side of the unit to accommodate
standard 1 inch N.P.T. and inch N.P.T. fittings.
CAUTION: On standard single-phase wiring, the
position limit switches and the torque switches are
wired directly in the motor circuit and protect it at the
extremes of travel or at torque cutout. Three phase AC
or DC units must have these torque and position limit
switches wired into the controlling device to cause
end of travel or torque shutdown. Care must be taken
in wiring these to the controlling device so that the
appropriate direction of control is turned off when
that directions limit switch is actuated. If care is not
taken in phasing the equipment, damage may occur to
the actuator or driven load. Also, inductive devices,
such as lights and solenoids, must not be paralleled
across motor terminals 1 and 2 or 1 and 3 as this will
upset the motor capacitor phase shift and motor
torque will be lost.
All wiring should be done in accordance with pre-
vailing codes by qualified personnel.
Fusing must be installed in line power, and should be
of the slow blow type.
JORDAN CONTROLS SUPPLIED (OPTIONAL)
COUPLING (Field Installed)
Jordan Controls has designed a three piece wedgelock coupling which can be adjusted to align the
driven device to the actuator output shaft with no
concern as to keyway alignment of the shaft on the
drive device in relation to the spline on the actuator
output shaft.
ADJUSTMENT
1. Slide coupling (5) onto driven shaft.
2. Slide coupling cone (1) and cup (2) onto actuator
shaft.
3. Mount actuator with the two shafts in line and the
shaft ends about inch (3 mm) apart.
4. Turn the shaft of the driven device to the close
position.
5. Run the actuator to the close limit switch.
6. Lock coupling (5) to the driven shaft by pinning or
other suitable method.
7. Slide cone (1) to fit flat in recess of coupling (5).
8. Install three bolts and lockwasher (3) and (4) and
tighten. (20-30 ft. lbs.)
9. Operate the actuator in the open direction and
back to the close direction until the close limit
switch stops the actuator.
Wiring should be routed to the actuator through the
two conduit openings. Generally, one conduit will
contain input power and earth ground wires. The
other conduit would then contain low level input
and output signal wiring. It is required that all low
level signal wiring be a shielded type with the shield
grounded at source common.
After installation, it is required that all conduits be
sealed to prevent water damage and to maintain
NEMA 4 enclosure and applicable dust ignition
ratings.
10. If the driven shaft does not move to the exact close
position you want, loosen the three bolts and turn
the driven shaft. Tighten the bolts. (20-30 ft. lbs.)
NOTE: Keep the coupling parts clean while
assembling.
See page 21 of this manual for Jordan supplied linkage
components information.

Start Up
ACTUATORS WITHOUT SERVO AMPLIFIERS
A. POSITION LIMIT SWITCH ADJUSTMENT
(Ref. Fig. 1)
NOTE:
The actuator is shipped in its mid-travel position.
1. Referring to your wiring diagram, apply motor power and
drive the actuator in the CW output shaft direction
(looking at the shaft), until PL1 trips and stops the
actuator. This is the CW limit switch setting and starting
point for final switch adjustment.
2. Move the controlled equipment to the same starting
point and couple the actuator output shaft to the driven
shaft.
3. Apply motor power to rotate the output shaft CCW about
5 degrees, allowing PL1 switch to reset.
4. Apply motor power to rotate the output shaft CW until
PL1 trips, turning off the motor. If the driven device is not
at the desired position:
a. Remove motor power.
b. Using an 1/8 inch, long shaft allen wrench,
loosen Cam Screw #1 about 1/4 turn.
c. Rotate Cam #1 CCW to allow the actuator to run
further in the CW direction or rotate the cam CW
to turn the actuator off sooner. (Cam #1 will turn
off the motor for CW output shaft rotation, when
the switch roller lever moves to the high side of
the cam with the cam rotating CW.)
d. Position the Cam as desired and while holding in
place, tighten screw #1 with moderate force to
adequately clamp the cam in place.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
5. Apply motor power to drive the actuator to the desired
CCW position or until PL2 trips and stops the motor. If
the driven device is not at the desired position:
a. Remove motor power.
b. Loosen Cam Screw #2 about a turn.
c. Rotate Cam #2 CW to increase the actuators
total travel range or CCW to decrease the travel
range.
d. Hold the cam in place and tighten screw #2.
6. Electrically operate the actuator to its CW limit and back
to the CCW limit to check switch settings. Readjust Cam
#1 or #2 as needed.
7. Switches 3 through 6 (optional) are adjusted by loosening
their respective cam screws and rotating the cam. They
may be set anywhere within the range of PL1 or PL2.
8. If the unit is equipped with a feedback device and
switches PL1 or PL2 were readjusted, proceed with the
proper feedback alignment prior to any further adjustments or operation of the actuator.
B. 1000 OHM POTENTIOMETER ADJUSTMENT
1. Run the actuator to the center of travel. Loosen the three
panhead screws, securing the potentiometer body, and
rotate it to its center of travel (500 ohm) position. An
ohmmeter will be required for this adjustment. Tighten
the three screws.
2. Run the actuator to the zero or minimum travel limit.
With the actuator running, monitor the potentiometer
with an ohmmeter to ensure the potentiometer
deadband is not crossed.
3. If your system requires a low resistance starting point,
loosen the three screws and rotate the potentiometer
body for the required starting resistance. This is usually
20 to 50 ohms (measured from the potentiometer wiper
arm to the zero end of the potentiometer).
C. 4 to 20mA TRANSMITTER OPTION
ADJUSTMENT
The ST-4130 (1000 ohm-input, 4 to 20 mA output) two wire
transmitter modulates the current on a direct current supply
proportional to the input resistance. It is powered by a 12.0
to 36.0 Vdc regulated power supply line which is modulated
from 4 to 20 mA proportional to the resistance of the input.
9
For the unit to function optimally, the 4mA end of the
feedback potentiometer must be preset to 50 ohms.
1. Position the actuator to the desired 4mA setting.
2. With potentiometer resistance at 50 ohms, adjust
ELEVATION for 4.0mA output.
3. Position the actuator to the desired 20mA setting.
4. Adjust RANGE for 20mA output.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 until desired accuracy is
achieved.
6. To reverse the 4 and 20mA output, interchange the BLUE
and YELLOW wires and return to step 1.
D. ACTUATOR WITH INTEGRAL AD-8130
SERVO AMPLIFIERS
Switch and feedback potentiometer alignment is accomplished in the same manner as actuator without amplifiers,
except motor power is supplied from the amplifier. Varying
the command signal input to the amplifier will allow reversal
of the rotation of the actuator output shaft to run to the
minimum/maximum switch settings. If the actuator does not
run to the limit switch, but stops short, the amplifier has
nulled and adjustments of span, elevation, loss of signal, or
feedback potentiometer may be required. Refer to IM-0607
for information on the AD-8130 amplifier.
The EC-10852 is for use with the AD-8130 servo amplifier
with LVDT (voltage feedback). The EC-10852 is used as the
HI and LO trim for the AD-8130. The AD-8130 is factory set
for operation with the EC-10852. CAUTION: It is impor-
tant not to adjust the HI and LO trim on the AD-8130,
which are torque sealed at the factory. For specific Setup
information and calibration, refer to the wiring diagram
supplied with your unit.
The fourth cam is used for any value of x between 0.5 and 2
and must be cut by the user. For details on cutting this cam,
see To Shape Feedback Cam.
a. Run the actuator to the zero or minimum position limit.
While running, observe the direction of character cam
rotation.
b. Is the cam rotating in the direction of 100-0 for your
system requirement? If not, remove the thumb screw and
flip the cam over. Tighten the screw.
c. Have you selected the proper cam for the system require-
ment? If not, remove the thumb screw and change the
cam, installing the cam the same as in (b) above. (Green
or Black side up.)
d. Loosen three screws and remove the cam assembly.
e. Rotate the cam until the zero on the cam is in line with
the center line of the potentiometer or LVDT shaft.
f. Potentiometers need no further adjustment.
g. LVDT contactless feedback may require fine zeroing.
i. Apply power to the LVDT and monitor the output
with a volt meter.
ii. Loosen the two body clamp screws and slide the
body of the LVDT to obtain zero output.
iii. Tighten the body clamp screws.
E. CHARACTERIZED CAM ADJUSTMENT
(OPTION)
The characterized feedback assembly is an option which
directly replaces the standard linear feedback potentiometer.
Prior to adjusting the cam, the end of travel limit
switches must be set and the proper cam installed for
your particular system requirements on the characterized
cam shaft. Four different cams are supplied with each
characterized assembly. The cams are printed on both
sides and may be flipped over to reverse the characterization action in relation to the output shaft rotation.
The cams are each printed with a letter O, F, or B
which indicate the cam type. Three of the cams are shaped
to correspond to X=2, 1, and 0.5 respectively in the equation:
% amplifier input = (% shaft rotation)x
iv. If a finer adjustment is desired, loosen the nut on
the LVDT shaft and turn the shaft slightly one
way or the other and tighten the nut.
TO SHAPE FEEDBACK CAM
With characterized feedback, one of the four cams supplied
(cam B), is partially shaped. For installation, it must be cut to
its final shape by the user. This cam is used if none of the
other three cams produces the desired input-output relationship where:
% amplifier input = (% shaft position)X
Two typical conditions where the user might want to use the
fourth cam are:
1.In equation above, if the value of X is not equal to 0.5 or 2.
10
2.In equation, if the value of X is equal to 0.5 or 2, and if
upper shaft position is not equal to 100% (90°), and/or
lower shaft position is not equal to 5% (0°).
To lay out the cam shape for the desired input-output
relationship, it is necessary to determine outputs (rise in
cam), for various inputs (amount of cam rotation). The rise in
the cam corresponds to % of maximum output range and the
amount of cam rotation corresponds to % input signal to
amplifier.
1. Lay out on graph paper, axes and maximum and mini-
mum slopes as shown in figure 2. (Maximum slope is 25
units rise per 10% shaft rotation; minimum slope is 5 units
per 10% rotation.)
2. If either upper or lower shaft position is not at 0 or 100%
(0° or 90°) respectively, lay out additional x-axis scale as
shown in figure 3 on page 13. Use both sets of values
when plotting cam shape in step 3.
3. Calculate outputs (rise in cam) for 5% or 10% increments
in input for entire input scan (actual cam rotation). NOTE:
only output values that fall within maximum and minimum slope lines can be used.
4. Plot these values on cam. Scribe smooth line between
points and grind cam to this shape.
Refer to example for typical cam calculations and layout.

LUBRICATION
Maintenance
Under normal service conditions the motor, gearing,
bearings, and parts are all pre-lubricated and should
not require periodic maintenance. If for any reason the
unit is disassembled in the field, all oilite bushings
should be resaturated with an SAE-10, non-detergent
oil and all gearing heavily coated with Amoco Rykon
Premium Grease #2 or equivalent grease. Care should
be taken to ensure that no foreign material is allowed
to become combined with the grease in the gear train,
which will cause premature failure. Keep gearbox
clean and dry.
DRAG BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
The drag brake serves two functions: a) to prevent
actuator from backdriving at maximum rated torque;
and b) to allow the motor shaft to slip when
handcranking and the output shaft load is in excess of
rated torque.
The drag brake was factory set and should not need
readjustment. If it does need adjustment:
1. Apply an overhung load, equal to the maximum
torque rating to the output shaft.
2. Loosen drag brake jam nut until the motor shaft
starts to backdrive.
TORQUE LIMIT SWITCH ALIGNMENT
The torque limit switches are factory set and field
adjustment is not advised unless proper test equipment is available. If adjustment must be done, use the
following procedure:
1. Load the output shaft with a known load which
matches the torque rating of the actuator in an
opposing direction for the switch being adjusted.
2. Apply power to the motor and run the actuator to
drive the opposing load.
3. Increase the load by 5% to 10% and adjust the set
screw (140C) to trip the torque switch.
4. Remove the 5% to 10% increase of load and the
switch should reset.
5. Load the actuator in the opposite direction and set
the other switch in the same manner.
NOTE: When looking at the torque limit switch
assembly as it is mounted in the actuator, the switch
on the top of the assembly controls the CW torque
and the switch on the bottom controls the CCW
torque. The torque should be set near equal for both
directions.
3. Tighten the drag brake jam nut just enough to
prevent backdriving.
4. While handcranking against the load, increase the
load until motor backdriving occurs.
When the actuator is driven into a torque condition
in the CW direction (looking at the output shaft), the
handcrank handle will move slightly outward. For
CCW direction the handle will pull slightly inward.
