Commissioning
After completing all mounting and wiring procedures and main power is available, it is now possible to commission
the actuator.
1. Utilize the handwheel to rotate the actuator and damper, valve or other connected device through its full travel
from fully CW to fully CCW and back again to check for any possible interference.
•
Do NOT utilize any mechanical advantage devices to rotate the handwheel (pipes, wrenches, extension bars, etc.).
2. Apply correct power to the unit.
3. Measure correct power on terminals 1 (Hot) and 2 (Neu) on the switch board.
4. Measure correct power on the two heater terminals on the switch board.
5. Command the field device to generate a CCW signal. The actuator rotates in a CCW direction (as viewed from
above).
6. Measure terminals 2 (Neu) and 6 (Hot) for correct voltage (matching that measured in step 3).
7. Actuator will stop when it reaches it's full CCW position.
8. Command the field device to generate a CW signal. The actuator rotates in a CW direction (as viewed from
above).
9. Measure terminals 2 (Neu) and 4 (Hot) for correct voltage (matching that measured in step 3).
10. Actuator will stop when it reaches it's full CW position.
11. Actuator is now commissioned and operational.
SPECIAL NOTES FOR STAINLESS STEEL ENCLOSURES
Operation of Stainless Steel
enclosure actuators is the
same as standard aluminum
enclosure actuators.
SPECIAL NOTES FOR IP-68 ENCLOSURES
Standard ProMation Actuator enclosures are certified to IP67, immersion in 1m water for 30 minutes
Optional -68 actuator enclosures are certified to IP68, immersion in 7m water for 72 hours. Both per
ANSI/IEC 60529 -Degrees of protection provided by enclosures.
The internal components of actuators with stainless steel (SS316) enclosures
are the same as those with aluminum enclosures.
There is no powder coating on the stainless enclosures. An anti-seize lubricant
(Molykote P-37, Dow Corning) has been applied to the bolts and mating
surfaces of the top and gear enclosures. Anti-seize material may be reapplied
as needed.
Stainless Steel Special Notes
- CAUTION - Stainless steel actuators are heavier than actuators with aluminum
enclosures.
- Do not use powered devices to remove or install enclosure bolts.
- Do not overtighten enclosure bolts.
- Apply anti-seize agent to bolts and mating surfaces as needed.
