The purpose of this procedure is to guide the installation of a Remote Mounted Actuator
Control with Electric Remote 2-Way and Electric Failsafe features. Use this procedure
in conjunction with the following Maintenance and Service Manuals.
Shafer Poppet Block Control Maintenance and Service Manual Bul. PBC-01102001
Shafer Hand Pump Maintenance and Service Manual Bul. MHP-01102001

Plumbing the Remote Mounted Control
After the Actuator has been mounted on the valve (see Shafer Rotary Vane
Maintenance and Service Manual Bulletin RVSM-5/02) and the Control has been set on
the foundation provided by the customer, some tube lines will need to be reconnected
and other tube lines will need to be manufactured.
1. Before shipping, the tube lines running to the top of the Gas / Hydraulic Tanks
were removed and the fittings were sealed with brass plugs and covers. This
was to prevent oil loss and prevent contamination from entering the system. A
yellow tag is provided and attached at the top of the Gas / Hydraulic Tanks (see
Figure 1) to identify these tube runs.

2. As instructed by the second yellow tag provided on the Gas / Hydraulic Tanks
(see Figure 2), remove the brass closures, attach the tube lines and tighten.
Also, other temporary closures are provided for shipping and storage; remove
these as you run the tube lines.
Caution: Use care to keep from contaminating the system with dirt inside of the
tubing or allowing dirt to enter through the tube fittings. At a minimum, blow
each tubing section clean with forced air.

3. Using the appropriate sized tubing, run the five lines with 1. in Figure 4 going to
1. in Figure 5, 2. in Figure 4. going to 2. in Figure 5. etc. Tubing sizes are not
listed as some may be job specific governed by the distance between the
Control and the Actuator.
4. There is one electric conduit connection shown in Figure 4 that will run to the
Terminal Box (Limit Switch Housing see Figure 3).

Purging the System, Verifying the Hydraulic Fluid Level
1. When tubing runs are complete and all fittings tightened, open Isolation Valves
(28).
2. Use the hand pump to purge air from the system following the Purging
Procedure on page 7 of the Shafer Rotary Vane Maintenance and Service
Manual Bulletin RVSM-5/02.
3. When the pumping cycle is completed, depress the manual relief valve located
top center of the selector valve on the pump and pull the pump ram back into
the pump body.
4. Fill both of the Gas / Hydraulic Tanks to required operating level (see. the
Shafer Rotary Vane Maintenance and Service Manual Bulletin RVSM-5/02.
5. After proper oil levels are established in the Gas / Hydraulic Tanks, the Actuator
is ready for normal operation.
