Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS DEFINITION OF TERMS WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual SAFETY Hazard Free Use This device left the factory in proper condition to be safely installed and operated in a hazard-free manner. The notes and warnings in this document must be observed by the user to ensure hazard-free operation of this device.
4. Set the Feedback (Output) signal type. 5. Verify (or adjust) the travel limits in the actuator. a. Bray actuators are shipped with the travel switches in the factory default position – close travel limit set at 0 degrees and the open travel limit at 90 degrees.
DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION The Bray Series 71 Servo provides complete modulating control and monitoring of the Bray Series 71 Electric Actuator. The basic function of the S71 Servo is to position the S71 Actuator in response to a command signal from a process controller.
Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual USER INTERFACE The S71 Servo features a rich, LED-based menu that displays both configurable settings and operational status. Indicators are grouped together based on function, shown by their respective label(s). Without any user interaction, the S71 Servo will display the factory default product settings, valve status, and fault status.
Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual 5.1.1 Configurable Settings Settings can be changed locally by utilizing the push-button associated with each product setting. Each push-button is labeled and placed below a set of LEDs, with individual labels corresponding to the setting. Settings are changed using the push-button.
Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual Output Signal Type - Configurable Output signals report the position of the valve under control, based on the magnitude of the signal. The minimum value corresponds to the closed position and the maximum value to the open position.
Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual 5.2.2 Manual Operation Manual operation of the actuator is performed via declutchable handwheel. The S71 Servo will continue to operate as if in remote mode, though it will not be able to actuate to a new setpoint until the manual mode is disengaged.
Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual Status Indication These are all indicators that report key information on the operation and functional status of the S71 Servo and actuator.

Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual 5.3.2 Fault Status The Fault LED, located at the bottom left, will turn on during a fault condition. The occurrence of a fault indicates that user intervention is required to restore operation, and these indicators attempt to provide the diagnostic information needed to accomplish this.
Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual CAUTION If cams or potentiometer are adjusted, the previous calibration settings will not apply to the new setup. Re-run the calibration routine to avoid unexpected behavior. 5.3.4 Heartbeat The heartbeat indicator, at the top right, serves as status indicators for the S71 Servo.
Series 71 – Modulating Controller - Electric Actuator Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual HARDWARE DESCRIPTION Terminal Connections WARNING Turn off all power and lockout/tag out service panel before installing or modifying any electrical wiring. There are two categories of connections: voltage level and connection type. Field terminals are provided on the unit for the landing of stripped wires, connecting the S71 Servo to the field wiring needed for it successfully operate.
