Description of operation
When voltage is applied to the cable, the control unit to be activated is moved to any desired position
by means of the carrier stem.
Direction of rotation for 3-point control (viewing the spindle of the ball valve from the actuator):
• The stem turns in the anti-clockwise direction, with the voltage on the brown cable, and the through
passage of the ball valve is opened.
• The stem turns in the clockwise direction, with the voltage on the black cable, and the through pas
sage of the ball valve is closed.
With 3-point control, the direction of rotation is changed by swapping the connections.
Direction of rotation for 2-point control (viewing the spindle of the ball valve from the actuator):
There is always voltage on the black cable.
• The stem turns in the anti-clockwise direction, with the voltage on the brown cable, and the ball
valve is opened.
• The stem turns in the clockwise direction, with no voltage on the brown cable, and the ball valve is
closed.
In the end positions (limit stop in actuator), or in the case of an overload, the magnetic coupling is
activated. The positioning signal is switched off by the electronic cut-out after 3 minutes or 60 sec
onds (F100).
The manual adjustment is performed by releasing the gear unit (slide switch beside the connection
cable) and simultaneously turning it with the lever. The actuator position can be determined by look
ing at the lever or the indicator knob on the top part of the actuator.
Outdoor installation
We recommend protecting the devices from the weather if they are installed outside the building.
Additional technical data
The upper section of the housing with the cover and indicator knob contains the synchronous motor
with capacitor and the electronics for the cut-off. The lower section of the housing contains the main
tenance-free gear unit and the gear-release knob.
Auxiliary change-over contacts:
• Switch rating max. 230 V~, current min. 20 mA at 20 V
• Switch rating max. 4…30 V=, current 1…100 mA
