1. Symbols and Safety
Dangers of non‐compliance with safety regulations
PSQ actuators are built to state‐of‐the‐art technology and are safe to operate. Despite this, the actuators may be
hazardous if operated by personnel that has not been sufficiently trained or at least instructed, and if the actuators
are handled improperly, or not used as per specification.
This may
cause danger to life and limb of the user or a third party,
damage the actuator and other property belonging to the owner,
reduce safety and function of the actuator,
To prevent such problems, please ensure that these Operating Instructions and the chapter on "1. Symbols and
Safety" in particular have been read and understood by all personnel involved in the installation, commissioning,
operation, maintenance and repair of the actuators.
Basic safety notes
The actuators may only be operated by skilled and authorized operating personnel.
Make sure to follow all security advices mentioned in this manual, any national rules for accident prevention, as
well as the owner´s instructions for work, operation and safety.
The isolating procedures specified in these operating instructions must be followed for all work pertaining to the
installation, commissioning, operation, change of operating conditions and modes, maintenance, inspection,
repair and installation of accessories.
Before opening the actuator cover, ensure that mains supply is isolated and prevented from unintended re‐
connection.
Areas that can be under voltage have to be isolated before working on them.
Ensure that the actuators are always operated in faultless condition. Any damage or faults, and changes in the
operational characteristics that may affect safety, must be reported at once.
Danger signs
The following warning symbols are used in this manual:
Caution! There is a general risk of damage to health and/or properties.
Danger! Electrical voltages may be present that are dangerous to life!
There is a risk of damage to health and/or properties with danger to lives.
With power supply 24 VAC the open motor phase can produce voltages up to 35 V due to motor
generated induction voltage.
3
Other notes
The motor surface may have elevated temperature when servicing, inspecting or repairing it immediately after
operation. Danger of burning the skin!
Always observe the relevant operating instructions when fitting PS accessories or operating the actuator with
PS accessories.
Connections for signal in‐ and output are double isolated from circuits that can be under dangerous voltage.
2. Usage as per Specification
The PSQ quarter turn actuators are exclusively designed as electric valve actuators. They are meant to be
mounted on valves for motor‐operation.
Any other use is considered to be not in accordance with standard specification, and the manufacturer cannot
be held liable for any damage resulting from it.
The actuators may not be used outside the limits laid out in data sheets, catalogues and order documentation.
Otherwise the manufacturer cannot be held liable for any resulting damage.
Usage as per specification includes the observance of the operating, service and maintenance conditions laid
down by the manufacturer.
Not to be regarded as usage as per specification are mounting and adjustment of the actuator, and servicing.
Special precautions have to be taken while doing this!
The actuators may only be used, serviced and repaired by personnel that are familiar with them and informed
about potential hazards. The specific regulations for the prevention of accidents have to be observed.
Damages caused by unauthorized modifications carried out on the actuators are excluded from the
manufacturer's liability.
Supply voltage may be switched on only after properly closing the main cover or terminal box.
3. Storage
The following must be observed with regards to proper storage:
Only store the actuators in ventilated, dry rooms.
Store the actuators on shelves, wooden boards etc. to protect them from floor moisture.
Cover the actuators with plastic foil to protect them from dust and dirt.
Protect the actuators against mechanical damage.
4. Operational Conditions
The standard actuators can be operated at ambient temperatures from ‐20°C to +80°C
Ambient temperature range for modulating duty is from ‐20°C to +60°C.
The operating modes correspond to IEC 60034‐1, 8: S2 for 3‐point operation, and S4 for control duty (see data
sheet for specific values for each actuator type).
For protection against moisture and dust, the actuator enclosure rating is IP67 according to EN 60529. To ensure
the protection rating, the cover must be fitted correctly and the holding screws tightened crosswise. The cable
glands must be suitable for the cables and correctly fitted to the actuator.
When installing the actuators, leave enough space to permit cover removal (figure 1).
Any installation position is allowed except "cover pointing downwards" (figure 2).

4.1 Installation Position
Outdoor Usage
When using actuators in environments with high temperature
fluctuations or high humidity, we suggest a heating resistor be fitted
to prevent the build‐up of condensation within the enclosure.
Figure 2: Installation position
5. Function
The electric quarter‐turn actuators Series PSQ are designed to operate valves with 90° motion. The PSQ actuators
are provided with a mechanical interface according to ISO 5211 for valve mounting. The motor torque is transmitted
via a spur gear onto the sun wheel of a „Wolfrom“‐gear. The rotating output wheel of the „Wolfrom“‐gear holds a
removable drive bush to connect the actuator with the valve stem. Two adjustable position switches are limiting the
electrical motion in both directions by interrupting the motor current or control circuit when reaching the adjusted
position.
The 90° motion is mechanically adjustable by +/‐ 5° by means of two stop screws. Torque switches are installed for
each direction (at PSQ102 and bigger).
5
The handwheel does allow comfortable manual operation in case of power failure or for commissioning. The
handwheel is idle when the motor is operating the actuator, but engaged in any position without clutching or
declutching.
Electrical wiring is done to a terminal block under the actuator cover.
6. Manual Operation
The actuators are supplied with loose enclosed
handwheel. Mount the handwheel according to
figure 3.
Figure 3: Hand wheel assembly
The handwheel does provide manual operation in case of power failure or commissioning. It is idle when the motor
is operating and always ready for operation without clutching or declutching.
Do not exceed the adjusted electrical
stroke limits by handwheel.
The mechanical limits must be set
accordingly.
Failure to observe this warning will change
the electrical feedback setting!
Figure 4: Manual Operation

7. Valve Mounting
The PSQ actuators are provided with a mechanical interface according to ISO 5211 for valve mounting. The
„Wolfrom“ gear does contain a removable drive bush to connect the actuator to the valve stem.
1 = actuator flange
2 = drive bushing
3 = indicator tooth
Ensure that the actuator flange suits the valve flange.
The bore of the drive bush (square, round bore with
keyway, double‐D) must correspond to the valve stem.
The drive bushing (item 2) has one raised indicator tooth
(item 3) to define the zero position of the bushing. This
tooth may be filed off if other orientations are required.
Clean all surfaces of the connection area, slightly
lubricate drive bush and valve stem.
Insert drive bush into the actuator first.
Position the actuator on the valve. Tighten the screws in
a diagonal sequence with the required torque.
Figure 5: Actuator Flange
8. Setting the Mechanical Stops
There are two adjustable screws installed for setting the mechanical limit of the 90° motion.
When setting the mechanical end positions, only the handwheel may be used. Do not operate the
actuator electrically.
Remove the protection cap (figure 6, item 3) from either stop screw.
Unscrew both hexagon sockets anti‐clockwise by approximately 5 turns.
Move the actuator to the closed position by turning the handwheel clockwise.
Turn stop screw for closed position (figure 6, item 1) to the stop.
Move the actuator to the open position by turning the handwheel anti‐clockwise.
Turn stop screw for open position (figure 6, item 2) to the stop.
Item 1: Stop screw CLOSED position
Item 2: Stop screw OPEN position

The standard position switches serve to switch off the motor when the desired limits are reached.
Additional position switches are potential‐free opeing/closing contacts and serve to indicate the valve position.
These are available as accessories. The switches are activated by cams. These cams are stepless adjustable on their
shaft by means of a friction coupling.
Item 1: Switching cam CLOSE position
Item 2: Switching cam OPEN position
Item 3: Bridge for screw driver support
NOTE:
Use the bridge (figure 8, item 3) as support for the screw driver when adjusting the cams.

Ensure that the mains supply is secured against accidental switching‐on!
Run the actuator electrically to the closed position until the valve is closed and the actuator is switched off by the
torque switch.
Turn the cam of the CLOSE position switch (figure 8, item 1) with an isolated srew driver (4 mm blade width) anti‐
clockwise until the micro switch is heard to click.
Run the actuator electrically to the open position until the valve is fully open and the actuator is switched off by
the torque switch.
Turn the cam of the OPEN position switch (figure 8, item 2) with an isolated srew driver (4 mm blade width)
clockwise until the micro switch is heard to click.
Drive the actuator away from either end position to release the stop screws.
Turn both stop screws counter‐clockwise by one turn.
Replace protection caps (figure 6, item 3) onto the stop screw holes after setting the position switches.
10. Setting the Torque Limit
There is one torque switch installed for each direction that cuts off the motor current when operated (single phase
motors).
The quarter‐turn actuator is set and checked by the manufacturer in order to limit the actuator to the nominal
torque in both directions. The reduction of the maximum output torque is possible by setting the switch brackets, to
suit the specific requirements of the valve.
Loosen the torque setting screws (fig. 9,
item 3) and turn the switch brackets to the
required position.
Fix this positions by tightening the screws.
Item 1: Switch bracket „CLOSE“
Item 2: Switch bracket „OPEN“
Item 3: Fixing screws

There are marks on both switch brackets.
When moving those marks against the center
of the set srew, the following torque
adjustments can be achieved (Figure 10).

11. Electric Supply
Before connecting to mains, ensure that the mains supply is isolated and secured against an
accidental switching‐on.
The mains connecting cables must be suitably dimensioned to accept the maximum current requirement of the
actuator, and correspond to IEC 227 and IEC 245. The yellow‐green coloured cables may only be used for connecting
to earth.
When inserting the cable through the cable connector, ensure that the maximum bending radius for the cable is
observed.
The PSQ electric actuators do not have an internal electrical power switch. A power mains switch has therefore to be
provided in the installation. This should be positioned close to the device and be easily accessible to the user and
shall be labelled as the mains isolator switch for the actuator.
Electric installation as well as over‐current and overvoltage protection devices must be conform to the standard DIN
IEC 60364‐4‐41, protective class I resp. protection class 3 (24VAC/24VDC) and also to the standard DIN IEC 60364‐4‐
44 according to the applied overvoltage category of the actuator.
10
Please protect all of the power supply and control cables in front of
the terminals mechanically by using suitable measures against
unintentional loosening. Never install the power supply and the
control cables together in one line but instead please always use
two different lines.

Figure 12: Wiring Diagram
PE earth connection on housing plate has to be connected!
Two adjustable position switches are installed to limit the stroke of the actuator, and cut‐off the motor current in
the relative direction.
Most motors have a thermal switch, depending on the actuator type, to cut off the current in both directions when a
maximum temperature is reached (only at standard single phase power supply). The thermal switch loop is closed by
the bridge between the X5/6 and X5/7 connections (see figure 11).
11.2 Thermo Switch as potential‐free Contact
Bei einigen Antrieben ist der Motor durch einen Thermoschalter geschützt. Dieser ist in den Nullleiter des
Motoranschluss eingeschleift (bei 1‐Phasen Wechselspannung), kann aber falls erforderlich, als potentialfreier
Kontakt nach außen geführt werden.
If desired, the thermo switch can be wired to be monitored from the outside as follows:
Remove the bridge between connections X5/6 and X5/7.
Exchange the connections X1/11 and X1/13.
Make a conductivity check between connections X5/6 and X5/7(resistance has to be zero)
Connect the thermo switch as potential‐free contact to the connections X5/6 and X5/7.
12
Maximum thermal switch loading:
The thermo switch can be loaded as a maximum to the nominal load of the motor (see motor nameplate).
When using the thermo switch as a potential‐free contact, the switching signal must immediately stop
the motor. Re‐starting the motor is allowed only after the thermo switch has reset. Failure to observe
this warning may result in damage to the actuator.
12. Commissioning
Close the cover.
Turning the handwheel, drive the valve to the middle position.
Switch the setting signal briefly to OPEN and CLOSE and check that the actuator operates in the correct
direction. If necessary, reverse the setting signal for OPEN/CLOSE.
Drive the actuator in either direction, using the setting signal until the position switch cuts‐off. Check that the
position switch setting is correct. If necessary re‐adjust the position switch (see chapter 9).
With power supply 24 VAC the open motor phase can produce voltages up to 35 VAC due to
motor generated induction voltage.
13. Service / Maintenance
The actuators are maintenance‐free if used under the operating conditions as established in the data sheet. The
gearboxes are lubricated for lifetime and do not require further lubrication.
13.1 Cleaning
The actuators should be cleaned with dry cloth.
13.2 Spare Parts
PSQ actuators are very robust functional units. In case of malfunction or damage of any component, spare parts are
available as per a separate spares price list. Please contact
PS Automation GmbH or the appropriate representative.
Rejected actuators can be returned to our works in Bad Dürkheim, Germany, or to our representatives, for
evaluation of failures and repair.
