4.4 Mechanical installation
4.4.1 General installation safety notes
• Never work on the actuator with the power switched on!
• Do not hold the extension tube while the unit is energized.
• Failure modes of the actuator should be considered to ensure it does not create harm.
4.4.2 Basic installation considerations
1. Only mount the actuator using the holes in the rear (a) and front (b) adapters. Check the model
number on the actuator product label (section 4.1) and then look at the ordering key (section 6.2)
to nd out your adapter type conguration. See the below drawings and table to nd out the exact
adapter dimensions.
2. Make sure that the actuator mounting position allows access to the cable connector cover plate (c), so
that it can be removed to allow access to the cable connector(s) (section 4.4.4).
3. The cable or cables (d) exit the cable slot at the rear of the actuator housing at delivery but can be
made to leave the housing at any point after the cable connector cover plate.
4. The manual override input (e) must have enough free space around it to allow it to be operated
(section 4.4.5).
5. If external limit switches will be used, the mounting of the actuator must allow access to the limit
switch slots (f) running along the underside of the cover tube (section 4.4.6).

4.4.3 Mounting orientation and forces
1. The actuator can be mounted in any orientation and handle both pushing and pulling loads.
2. Always install actuator so that the force of the load acts in the center of the extension tube and the
rear adapter.
3. Only mount the actuator to the rear and front adapter mounting holes.
4. Only use solid mounting pins and support them at both ends.
5. The mounting pins must be parallel to each other both radially and axially.
YES NO
4.4.4 Cable connector cover plate
1. The cover plate is held in place by a screw (M3 with Torx T10 head) that can be accessed through
the hole in the top of the cover plate (a). Keep in mind to mount the actuator so that there is enough
clearance to access the screw with a tool!
2. Once the cover plate is released it needs to be pushed about 20 mm (0.8 inch) in the direction of
the arrow symbol on the cover plate before it can be removed from the actuator (b). The connectors
are a part of the backside of the cover plate and can be accessed once the cover plate is removed.
3. Make sure to put the cover plate back correctly and torque the screw to 1.2Nm (10.6 in-lb) to ensure
that the actuator cover plate and connectors are properly sealed.
