Start-Up/Operation; Introduction; Operations Checklist - Honeywell HercuLine 10260A Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual

5.1 Introduction

After the equipment is completely installed, wired, and the preliminary adjustment made, it is advisable to
check the operation of the actuator and controlled device before using the equipment for actual control. In
other words, operate the controlled device and check its direction of travel in response to an increase in the
controlled variable and make sure it is correct for the process. Actuators having the optional Auto-Manual
Switch must have the knob in the AUTO position.
This chapter provides a checklist which can be used to do a walk-through with the actuator before it is
actually used for control.

5.2 Operations Checklist

1. Refer to customer's connection diagram supplied with each actuator to determine direction of actuator
rotation.
2. If the process being controlled requires opposite actuator rotation from that supplied by the factory, this
may be accomplished by following the field reversal procedure in Section 4.9.
3. To check the operation of the optional Auto-Manual Switch, move the knob to the C. W. and C.C. W.
MANUAL: positions. The output shaft should rotate in the direction indicated by the knob.
