TM-1000LP Actuator and Attached Steam Valve Manual 45012 Warnings and Notices Important Definitions This is the safety alert symbol is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.
Do not touch the components or conductors on a printed circuit board with your hands or with conductive devices. To prevent damage to electronic components caused by improper handling, read and observe the precautions in Woodward manual 82715 , Guide for Handling and Protection of Electronic Controls, Printed Circuit Boards, and Modules.
Chapter 1. General Information Introduction The TM-1000LP actuator is attached to a 2, 3, or 4-inch steam valve of other manufacture at the Woodward factory. This manual provides information on the installation, operation and adjustments, principles of operation, and maintenance of the TM-1000LP Actuator and attached steam valve. Refer to the actuator installation and operation manual (45014) for complete actuator information.
Due to typical noise levels in turbine environments, hearing protection should be worn when working on or around the TM-1000LP with Steam Valve. Do not lift or handle the valve-actuator by any conduit. Lift or handle the valve-actuator using a sling around the upper part of the actuator to lift it with a hoist.
(Figure 2-1). Use the correct Woodward control manual when making all electrical connections. A twisted pair of 18 AWG (0.8 mm²) shielded wires extends from the actuator. Continue the Red lead to the positive (+) terminal on the control.
Be sure the correct hydraulic-supply pressure to the actuator is established before start up. Trapped air within the hydraulic system may cause momentary erratic behavior of the actuator at the initial operation. Use the correct Woodward manual for the Woodward electronic control to begin prime- mover operation.
Manual 45012 TM-1000LP Actuator and Attached Steam Valve Chapter 4. Principles of Operation Steam Valve Assembly The actuator output shaft is connected to the steam-valve stem through a slip joint, which allows limited relative motion between the two. If input current to the actuator is increased, the output shaft will retract into the actuator and pull the steam valve open.
TM-1000LP Actuator and Attached Steam Valve Manual 45012 Operation of the actuator is similar in the decrease direction. Movement of the flapper restricts flow from the upper nozzle, while increasing flow from the lower nozzle. The pressure differential this time lowers the spool valve and uncovers ports to direct supply pressure to decrease actuator output position.
