Improper use of the product may result in injuries or property damage. Refer to the Habonim Compact SY catalogue for additional product safety information or contact Habonim. 1. Assure that the actuator is isolated from the air supply or electrical ancillaries before attempting to perform any maintenance.
• Application temperature higher than +110 °C (+230 °F) for HT applications Habonim recommends a proof test interval of 12 months; in case of Fail to Open ESD system, a partial stroke is acceptable to confirm that the installation is functioning properly.
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 4. Installation The installation procedure for COMPACT SY actuator is critical to ensuring both long life and satisfying performance. Actuators stored on site, awaiting installation, should be kept in their original packing, in dry conditions, where damage will not occur (see clause 3).
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 4.2. Identification Compact SY actuators are supplied with a nameplate located on the side of the body. The information includes actuator size, model, type, spring set, threads, indicator, additional options, date of manufacture, protection rating, pressure limits and company logo.
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 4.4. Mounting on a valve The actuator can be attached by a bracket (indirect mount) or mounted directly onto the valve. Indirect mount Direct mount The actuator bottom interface is in accordance with ISO 5211 and may come with square or with keyways drive slots to fit various valve shafts.

POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 4.5. Travel adjustment will quickly result in loss of bolt strain and subsequent leakage. The actuator comes factory adjusted to produce a 90° rotation. The rotation is restricted by the yoke stopping surfaces and two or four stop screws (29) which are threaded into the actuator body.
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 4.6. Solenoid valve mounting Connection of the air supply is accomplished by mounting a solenoid valve directly onto the NAMUR block (24) which has a mounting pad conforming to the NAMUR standards. (Only solenoids made to the NAMUR standard can be mounted in this way.)
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 5. Operation 5.1. Operating conditions Work temperatures The standard temperature limits for the Compact SY actuators are -20°C (-4°F) to +80°C (+176°F). For temperatures below or above these figures special preparation and materials are required such as grease, O-rings, yoke bearings and pads.
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 5.2. Principle of operation The Compact SY actuator is a pneumatic quarter-turn (90°) scotch yoke actuator. Air pressure applied to the piston surface area generates thrust which transforms linear motion to rotary motion of the yoke. The Compact SY has four pistons centrally located around one yoke.
Page 13
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series Actuator configurations The actuator has two configurations: Double Acting (DA) and Spring Return (SR). In DA actuator in CW and CCW strokes the pistons are pushed by air pressure. In SR actuator in CCW stroke the pistons are pushed by air pressure and in CW stroke the pistons are pushed by springs, which are located at the piston’s chambers.
5.5. Speed control Habonim recommends using reducers to properly control the opening / closing speed of Compact SY actuators, especially if mounted on butterfly valves or dumpers.
Habonim recommends actuator full maintenance operation every 500,000 cycles or 4 years, whichever comes first. Maintenance team must read and understand the Habonim product IOM before starting the operation. In case of a doubt please consult the Habonim engineering team.
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series Springs sets replacement For SR actuator there are loaded spring cartridge sets for each model. The loaded cartridges are replaced entirely with new ones. For disassembly and assembly instructions refer to the sections 2 and 3 of the Disassembly and Assembly Manual.

• For stop screws use LOCTITE® SF 7649 and HERNON Nuts N’ Bolts® 420. • For O-ring seals use lubricants indicated in the clause 6.2 table of the Maintenance manual. • Equivalent agents may be applied, when approved by Habonim engineering. • For any discrepancies, please contact Habonim 2.
Warning: If after opening a 10 mm gap the cover is still under tension, close the cover by retightening the bolts and contact Habonim. DO NOT release the cover completely. Caution: springs in the actuator are under tension.

Carefully examine the springs cartridge and make sure it’s not damaged, special attention must be given to the bent pipe at the center which holds the complete unit together. In case there are cracks or any other severe damage, close the cover by retightening the bolts and contact Habonim. Bent pipe.
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 2.5. Disassembly of the scotch yoke mechanism 2.5.1. For actuators with two stop screws: Untighten the locking nut (30) and unscrew the stop screw (29) on both sides of the actuator approximately 15-20 mm outward.
Page 23
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 2.5.2. Secure the body of the actuator (1) to the worktable. Turn the yoke (12) counterclockwise (CCW) with appropriate tool to eject the 4 pistons from their cylinders. Alternatively, you may supply low pressure (1-2 bar) to the yoke chamber through port A to push the pistons out from the body.
Page 24
POWER-COMPACT SY - 4 Pistons Pneumatic Actuator Valves Series 2.5.3. Remove the piston O-rings (3) by pressing them slightly from both sides of the piston, creating a loop and pull them out of their groove. Do not use a sharp object to pry them out.
