    It weighs about 6.6 kg (14.5 lb). The TM-55 actuator is UL Listed for use in Class I, Division 1, Groups C and D. In the actuator, a torque motor servo-valve is energized by the electric control to generate a pressure differential applied to the ends of, and to operate, the second stage spool valve.

  • Page 14: Adjustments

    TM-55 Integrating Actuator Manual 82768 Adjustments Normally, all operating adjustments are made to the TM-55 actuator during factory calibration according to specifications provided by the customer and should not require further adjustment. Do not attempt adjustments to the actuator unless thoroughly familiar with the proper procedures. If an adjustment/ calibration must be made to the null current (level adjustment) follow these steps: 1.
  • Page 15: Chapter 4. Principles Of Operation

     A double-sided, equal-area servo piston linked to the rotary output shaft The essential element of the TM-55 is the torque motor servovalve which uses a double nozzle and flapper to generate a differential pressure to operate the second stage spool valve. The torque motor receives dc current signals from the electric control and applies torque to the single piece armature and flapper which is supported on a torsion flexure.

    Filter Cleaning The TM-55 actuator is equipped with a 40 µm (nominal) filter fitting at the supply connection. See the outline drawing (Figure 2-2) for its location. If the filter becomes clogged, as evidenced by sluggish response, it may be cleaned ultrasonically, and back flushed with a light solvent.
