INSTALLATION WIRING MOUNTING Refer to installation dimensions on the installation print The wiring diagram on page 6 shows the fundamental sent with the actuator. The rear cover (opposite the connections for standard three-wire reversible single- ram) must have clearance so it can be removed for phase ac motor, standard permanent magnet dc motor, adjustments and interconnect wiring.
TYPICAL WIRING DIAGRAM LA-2400 SERIES ACTUATORS WITH A BUILT-IN AD-8130 AMPLIFIER (120/240 Vac, Single Phase, 50-60 Hz) Due to wide variations in terminal numbering of actuator products, actual wiring should follow the print supplied with the actuator. Notes: 1. All references to actuator ram movement are as viewed facing the front clevis.
START UP & CALIBRATION A. LIMIT SWITCH ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE (see Figure 1) The limit switch assembly features up to four indepen- 1K ohm potentiometer dently adjustable position limit switches. The setting of one switch does not affect the setting of the other. Fiqure 1 Limit switch #1 (PL1) is set to stop the actuator at the actuator fully extended position.

POSITION FEEDBACK ALIGNMENT C. 4 to 20mA TRANSMITTER ADJUSTMENT (Potentiometer) The ST-4130 (1000 Ohm-input, 4 to 20mA output) two Position feedback is provided through the use of a wire transmitter modulates the current on a direct potentiometer attached to the limit switch assembly.
START UP & CALIBRATION FOR UNITS WITH AMPLIFIERS Switch and feedback device alignment is accomplished If the actuator does not run to the limit switch but stops in the same manner as actuator without amplifiers, short and both red lights are off on the amplifier board, except motor power is supplied from the amplifier.
Amplifier Start-Up 1) Power. Before applying AC power to TB2 set slide 5) Transmitter. This adjustment sets the endpoints of the 4-20 mA transmitter to account for variations in switch to the correct voltage (120/240Vac) accuracy of the input command. A) Set command signal to low level, normally 4 mA.

Typical Amplifier Wiring Diagram AD-8140 Due to wide variations in terminal numbering of actuator products, actual wiring should follow the print supplied with the unit. Troubleshooting For visual troubleshooting, LEDs are provided to display the status of the actuator. These are located on the same side of the lower board as SW1. The identification of these LEDs are shown in the table below.
