Pneumatic connections should be disconnected before any intervention. Refer to the instruction manual before any intervention. As pneumatic actuator can be used efficiently after 500.000 unpacking and packing, oring kits of product should be replaced. SMS-TORK Endüstriyel Otomasyon Ürünleri San. Tic. Ltd. Şti.
valve & automation 2. OPERATION OF THE EQUIPMENT a. Operation of Double Acting Actuators Inline position Before connect the actuator and valve to the piping system, check the position of the valve and the actuator pinion Port A: Pressurized to open the valve. Actuator rotates CCW for opening. Port B: Pressurized for close the valve.
Port A: Non-Pressurized and springs made their jobs for closing the valve. Actuator rotates CW for closing. Across position Port A: Pressurized to open the valve. Actuator rotates CCW for opening. Port A: Non-Pressurized and springs made their jobs for closing the valve. Actuator rotates CW for closing. SMS-TORK Endüstriyel Otomasyon Ürünleri San. Tic. Ltd. Şti.
valve & automation c. Operation of 3 Position Actuator In order to operate the 3 position actuator, can be benefited from the 3/2 solenoid valve. (Figure 10) Air Input Setting Mechanism Fig 10. 3 position actuator a) Mounting: Fortriple 3/2 solenoid valve; the valve with number 1 should be connected to A port, the valve with number 2 to B port and the valve with number 3 to C port.
I. Adjust the valve to closed position by usinga wrench. II. Do not use hammer for adjusting the valve shaft. III. Mount the bracket on valve by using screws and nuts like in the picture. Place the extension on valve piniondirectly. SMS-TORK Endüstriyel Otomasyon Ürünleri San. Tic. Ltd. Şti.

valve & automation IV. When mounting the actuator pay attention to open and close position of valve. Before connect the actuator and valve to the piping system, check the position of the valve and the actuator pinion V. Mount the actuator to the valve with set screw and nut by suitable tools.
II. Adjust the pistons to accurate position by using wrench. III. Turn the right set screw until an obstruction is felt. Do not turn anymore and do not force it. For lock the set screw use lock nut SMS-TORK Endüstriyel Otomasyon Ürünleri San. Tic. Ltd. Şti.
valve & automation Spring Return Actuators (Open Position) I. Connect the actuator to pressurized air system. Give some pressure to “Port A” to open the actuator. II. Adjust the pistons to accurate position by using wrench. III. Turn the left set screw until an obstruction is felt.
Before connect the actuator and switch box, check the position of the switch box and the actuator pinion Pneumatic connections should disconnected before any intervention. SMS-TORK Endüstriyel Otomasyon Ürünleri San. Tic. Ltd. Şti.
valve & automation f. Ground Connection In exproof models mount the main supply ground cable socket (color code is yellow green) to the ground connector on the pneumatic actuator. g. Actuator Supply Condition Before connect the air system to actuator, use air filter, pressure, and oiler. For the accurate operation temperature and pressure ranges are listed below.
