3. GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION

3.1 Description of Iso/Readback Board

The V-Series Iso/Readback Board is a 115/230 VAC option that provides jogging or latching control from a low voltage (12 VDC or 24 VDC) or high voltage (115 VAC or 230 VAC) control signal. It also provides:

• a 4-20 mA or 0-10 DC position “readback” signal

• isolation for the motor, so that multiple actuators may

be wired in parallel

• supervisory control via a mode selector switch and

on-board CW and CCW push buttons. The supervisory control mode overrides a remote signal for simple and uninterrupted system set-up.

The isolation feature solves the problem of feedback voltage interfering with PLC or DCS systems. In standard electric actuators, the motor acts as an inductive load and ”steps up” the input voltage, and feeds it back via the non-powered terminals to the power supply. The Iso/ Readback board isolates the motor from the control signal, preventing the feedback voltage from reaching the power supply.

IMO 10/17

4 IMO-I5500 EN

Position indication is available at terminals 5 and 6 on the Motor Board (for discrete end of travel indication), and at terminals D and E on the Iso/Readback Board (for analog position readback).

Note: This option will t all V-Series 115 & 230 VAC actuators with the letter “N” preceding the voltage designator in the part number on the product nameplate.

WARNING

DANGEROUS VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT INSIDE THE ACTUATOR COVER UNLESS THE POWER SUPPLY TO THE ACTUATOR HAS BEEN SHUT OFF OR DISCONNECTED. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHENEVER WORKING ON THE ACTUATOR WITH THE COVER REMOVED.

WARNING

ACTUATORS SHOULD BE PROPERLY GROUNDED AND WIRED IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODE; SEE NAMEPLATE FOR MAXIMUM CURRENT DRAW.

3.2 Operation

NOTE: Assumes option is installed; if installing kit, see Section 3.4 of this manual.

3.2.1 High or Low Voltage Control Signal

The Iso/Readback Board plugs into the Valvcon Motor Board using standard brackets and mounting screws provided. Several selector switches are provided on the board for mode set-up. The matrix below explains the actuator’s functions for each combination of switch settings:

3.2.2 Position Readback

The Iso/Readback Board provides either a 4-20 mA or 0-10 VDC analog signal for position indication. To initiate this function, connect to terminals D and E on the Iso/Readback Board. Then:

1. Calibrate the Zero position (4 mA or 0 VDC) by selecting the “Man” mode and use the on-board CW push button to drive to the full clockwise position. Using the 1/16” Allen wrench provided, loosen the setscrew on the larger, white nylon gear. Adjust that gear until the “Zero Calibration” LED turns on. Tighten the setscrew.

P/N VC002065

Iso/Readback Board

Figure 2

2. Calibrate the Span position by using the on-board CCW push button to drive to the full counter-clockwise position. Adjust the “Set Span” potentiometer until you read the desired Span signal (20 mA or 10 VDC).

3. If you are using the Position Readback signal in conjunction with a high or low voltage control signal, return the selector switch to the “Run” mode.

3a. If you are using the Position Readback signal without

the high or low voltage control signal, leave the selector switch in the “Man” position.

3.3 Operation for ON/OFF or Jogging Applications (Motor Board only)

WARNING

VALVCON AC VOLTAGE ACTUATORS USE REVERSING INDUCTION MOTORS WHICH CAUSE HIGH VOLTAGES. DEVICES CONNECTED

TO TERMINAL 3 AND TO TERMINAL 4 MUST BE RATED FOR MINIMUM 250 VAC 440 VAC FOR 230 VAC APPLICATIONS. DUE

TO THE INDUCED FEEDBACK VOLTAGE, MULTIPLE ACTUATORS CANNOT BE WIRED IN PARALLEL. SEPARATE ISOLATED CONTACTS MUST BE PROVIDED FOR EACH ACTUATOR.

3.3.1 Set Up for Operation

Two limit switches operated by the cams on the output shaft determine the exact positions where the actuator will stop at each end of travel. The bottom limit switch determines the clockwise stop position. The next limit switch up from the bottom determines the counter-clockwise stop position. The end of travel limit switches can be adjusted to provide from 5 to 320 degrees of actuator rotation.

The two standard limit switches may be used to indicate the open and closed status of the actuator. Terminals 5 (counter-clockwise) and 6 (clockwise) provide the position indication at line voltage. If dry contacts or intermediate position indication are needed, additional limit switches and cams may be installed in the actuator. When additional limit switches are installed, they can be set in any position and are wired to a separate terminal block provided with the option. See (Section 4), V-Series Standard Options.

travel, and the second cam, (from the bottom) controls the counter-clockwise end-of-tavel (See Figure 3).

2. Move the actuator to the desired STOP position

3. Apply power according to desired mode of operation

or use the manual override. (See Figures 4, 5 & 6)

4. Remove the power and rotate cam in the direction of travel to the exact point the switch “clicks” closed.

5. Tighten the set screw.

6. Repeat this procedure to set the opposite end of the travel limit.

3.3.3 Proper Actuator Cover Installation

1. Remove the override shaft from the actuator cover bushing; if the actuator is equipped with a handwheel, remove the handwheel before removing the top piece of the “two-piece” shaft form the cover bushing.

2. Install the override shaft on the square motor shaft; if the actuator is equipped with a handwheel, install the bottom piece of the “two-piece” shaft on the motor shaft and then install the top piece of the shaft onto the bottom piece of the shaft.

3. Align cover so that the override shaft will pass through the override bushing and carefully push it down so that the cover ange contacts the base ange.

3. Plug Pot connector into the 3-pin connector on the front of the Iso/Readback Board (“J1”). Plug Iso/Readback Board into Motor Board (P/N VC002015) via 10-pin connector and secure to the existing bracket with three mounting screws. (See Figure 7).

Figure 7

4. Place small (20-tooth) gear on Pot shaft and tighten. Place spacer on Camshaft then place large (60-tooth) gear on Camshaft. Properly positioned, gears should mesh evenly. (See Figure 8).

4. Once the cover is properly seated, tighten the screws to secure the cover; a cross pattern is recommended for uniform distribution of load.

5. If the position indicator is not seated to the output/ cam shaft, turn until it drops into place in order to ensure accurate visual position indication.

4.9 Voltage

5.2 Wiring

WARNING

VALVCON AC VOLTAGE ACTUATORS USE REVERSING INDUCTION MOTORS WHICH CAUSE HIGH VOLTAGES. DEVICES CONNECTED

TO TERMINAL 3 AND TO TERMINAL 4 MUST BE RATED FOR MINIMUM 250 VAC 440 VAC FOR 230 VAC APPLICATIONS.

CONTROLLERS WITH SOLID STATE OUTPUTS MUST BE RATED FOR MORE THAN 250 VAC. WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT RELAY OUTPUTS BE USED ON CONNECTED DEVICES. DUE TO THE INDUCTION FEEDBACK VOLTAGE, MULTIPLE ACTUATORS CAN NOT BE WIRED IN PARALLEL. SEPARATE ISOLATED CONTACTS MUST BE PROVIDED FOR EACH ACTUATOR. IF THE ACTUATOR IS DRIVEN BY CONTACTS ON A PC OR PLC, MAKE SURE THE CONTACTS HAVE THE PROPER RATINGS.

5.3 Duty Cycle and Motor Protection

V-Series actuators can operate continuously for up to 15 minutes at 104˚F (40˚C). After 15 minutes of continuous operation they are rated for 75% duty cycle operation at 104˚F and for 30 starts per minute. Duty cycles decrease at temperatures in excess of 104˚F. Duty cycle is the maximum proportion of “on” time and the minimum required “o” time to prevent thermal overloading. Actuators with cycle times of 30 seconds must rest at least 10 seconds between cycles. Higher temperature applications decrease duty cycle.

AC motors contain thermal overload protection. Exceeding the rated duty cycle may cause the thermal overload switch to temporarily remove power to the motor and cause it to stall. After the motor cools, the actuator will resume normal operation. The thermal protector is a safety device, designed for infrequent use. Constant tripping of the thermal overload protector may cause premature motor failure.

115 VAC or 230 VAC. V-Series actuators are rated for full torque at +/- 10% of the nominal voltage at 60 Hz. Note: operation at 50 Hz will proportionally decrease the duty cycle and increase the cycle time. V-Series actuators are rated for a minimum of 75%* duty cycle at 60 Hz at 104˚F (40˚C).

* 55% duty cycle for 3000 lb•in actuators.

5. GENERAL OPERATING INFORMATION

For enclosure specications and dimensions, see (Tables 1-2 and Figure 13).

5.1 Enclosure Ratings and Product Certications

Metso oers two versions of V-Series actuator enclosures: the “W” enclosure is weathertight, and the “WX” enclosure which is weathertight and explosion-proof.

IMO 10/17

5.4 Operating Temperature Limits

V-Series actuators are designed to operate in ambient environments between -40˚F (-40˚C) and 150˚F (65˚C). In outdoor applications where ambient temperatures exceed 80˚F, actuators should be shielded from direct sunlight. In applications with high media temperatures, insulating blankets, heat shields and/or extended mounting shafts should be used to maintain ambient temperatures at the actuator within normal operating limits.

Heaters and thermostats are recommended for all outdoor applications and may also be used to dry condensation in high humidity environments.

5.5 Actuator Mounting

The actuator may be mounted in any position including upside-down. It must be rmly secured to a direct mount ange or sturdy mounting bracket. A minimum of four bolts with lock washers should be used to secure the actuator to the bracket. Flexibility in the bracket is not allowed, and backlash,

IMO-I5500 EN 11

or “play”, in the coupling should be minimized. The actuator output shaft must be in line (centered) with the valve shaft to avoid side-loading the shaft. See (Figure 13) for output drive dimensions and mounting hardware specications.

WARNING

FAILURE TO USE MANUAL OVERRIDE PROPERLY COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE ACTUATOR GEARING. ENSURE THAT THE OVERRIDE IS FULLY DISENGAGED AND DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE WHEN MANUALLY POSITIONING ACTUATOR. DO NOT DRIVE THE ACTUATOR BEYOND THE TRAVEL LIMIT SETTINGS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE ACTUATOR AND/OR FINAL DRIVE ELEMENT.

5.6 Manual Override

To use the manual override, push the override shaft down approximately 1/4 inch to disengage the motor from the gear train. Failure to disengage motor prior to turning override will cause damage to the actuator. While holding the shaft down, turn the shaft with a wrench or handle to the desired position. NOTE: The override shaft on actuators below 1000 lb•in must be rotated in the opposite direction of the desired direction of the output shaft. In actuators 1000 lb•in and above, the override and the output shaft turn in the same direction.

Do not drive the actuator beyond the limit switch settings; it is possible to damage installed options such as a feedback potentiometer. The manual override shaft must be returned to its fully upward position before the motor is re-engaged. Rotate the shaft slightly to align the spur gears until the shaft “springs” back to its re-engaged position. NOTE: The rotation direction of the output may not be the same as the rotation of the override shaft!

5.9 Warranty

All V-Series actuators are backed by a 2-year warranty that covers materials and workmanship. The warranty expires 24 months from installation or 30 months from delivery; whichever comes rst.

To request a Return Authorization for an actuator within the warranty period, please consult your local Metso distributor.

5.10 Repair Service/Spare Parts

We recommend that electric actuators be directed to our Northeast Service Center for maintenance. The Service Center is equipped to provide rapid turn-around at reasonable cost and oer new product warranty with all reconditioned electric actuators.

For electric actuators outside of the warranty period, request a Return Authorization by calling the Northeast Service Center at (508) 595-5195; or by sending an e-mail to

valvconservice@metso.com.

NOTE: When sending electric actuators to the Service

Center for repair, do not disassemble them! The actuator should be relatively clean upon return. For further information on spare parts and service or assistance, visit our Web site at www.metso.com/electricactuators.

NOTE: When ordering spare parts, always include the following information:

a. Actuator model number from the product nameplate.

b. Serial number from the product nameplate.

5.7 Lubrication

All rotating power train components are permanently lubricated with multi-purpose Lithium grease suitable for the operating temperature range of the actuator. Additional lubrication is not required in normal operation.

5.8 Problem Prevention

Most actuator problems result from improper installation.

• Incorrect Wiring and Set Up Make certain the actuator is wired correctly and travel stops are properly set before power is applied.

• Coupling, Alignment, and Mounting Do not add extra torque! Make certain that the mounting arrangement is sturdy, centered, properly aligned, and that all mounting hardware is secure and properly tightened.

• Moisture Replace the cover tightly and make certain conduit entry holes are sealed properly to prevent moisture inltration.
