5.‐ EMERGENCY MANUAL OVERRIDE FACILITY:
The J4C has 2 operating modes, automatic and manual , the required mode is selected by using a
lever on the lower half of the actuator housing (Fig 7).
The 2 positions are marked:
AUTO = Automatic operation
MAN = Manual operation
Warning: Do not remove the selector lever securing screw,
as this will allow its internal mechanism to become loose and
will cause irreparable damage to the actuator’s gearbox.
Removing this screw will invalidate the warranty.
When “AUTO” position is selected:
The hand wheel, of models 20,35,55, and 85 rotates automatically, it is very important not to block
it, otherwise the actuator could suffer unrepairable damages.
When “MAN” function is selected:
1‐The electronic system cuts the power to the motor after a few minutes.
2‐The mechanical connection between the motor and the output shaft is disconnected.
3‐The desired position can be achieved by using the hand wheel.
4‐There are two ways to re‐active the motor after being isolated whilst in “MAN” position:
a) With the actuator in “MAN” function, turn the hand wheel to one of the end positions
(open or close). If the end position switch is activated the motor stops. Now change the manual
override from “MAN” to “AUTO” , and the actuator is ready to operate automatically again.
b) Change from “MAN” mode to “AUTO”. Deactivate the supply voltage for a few seconds
which resets the actuator and it could operate automatically again.
Adjustment of the cams
Under normal conditions, the actuator may only be operated with the closed cover.
If work is performed on the actuator with the removed cover, the supply and control voltage must
first be disconnected. Adjustments, which need to be done in the energized state, should be carried
out with special insulated tools.
How to do it: Tolling: One special plastic wrench (is supplied together with the actuator). The
wrench is tied together with the motor by using one plastic clamp.
To move the cams, introduce the special plastic wrench in the hole of the cam and turn it round
(see both options on the enclosed pictures).

General advise:
Transportation:
The transport to the installation location should always take place in a fixed packaging. Do not carry
the actuator on the hand wheel and do not attach any hoists to the hand wheel.
Entry control:
Check directly after delivery the actuator for possible damages in transit and faults.
Don´t leave any parts in the packaging. Check on the bases of the delivery note and the type label at
the actuator whether the delivered goods correspond to your order.
Storage:
Store the actuators in well ventilated, dry rooms. They must be protected against humidity, dust,
dirt, temperature change and solar radiation. If a storage is not possible under the described
conditions, the built‐in control room heater has to be wired actively. For this purpose, the actuator
must be connected to the mains voltage corresponding to the voltage indicated on the nameplate.
Damages in transit:
Claims for damages related to shipping damage are immediately reported to the delivering
transport company. The transport packaging should be kept. Customize a damage report for return
(due to damage / repairs). Damage claims can be made only as asserted.
Return the delivery, after agreement, back to us, if possible with their original packaging und and
completed return form. Send us the document via fax or mail. After our approval send you the goods
together with the return document and return material authorization number to our service
department.
Safety notes:
First check the following circumstances:
‐Does the actuator the required version ( torque, protection, voltage, swivel angle, etc.).
‐Does the wiring acc. to the voltage (see diagram/type label).
‐Is it possible to adjust the valve on the manual override.
‐Switch from AUTO to MAN, move the handwheel/ handlever to synchronize the
transmission then exit the adjustment path manually and turn back to the starting
position. Then switch from MAN to AUTO and move the handlever/ hand wheel
onesmore.
These safety instructions are to be considered by any person concerned with the operation,
maintenance or repair of the actuators. The proper and safe operation requires proper
transport, proper storage, mounting and careful operation.
‐Maintenance and repair work may only be performed by qualified personnel. When wiring
electrical equipment the applicable VDE and EVU regulations are observed.
‐Electrical protection measures (grounding resistance, etc.) are to be checked.
‐When working on the actuator or connected to these devices and system components, the supply
voltage must be switched off.
‐Perform the installation, repair work in compliance with the applicable statutory and professional
safety and accident prevention regulations!
‐The safety aspects are always depending on the circumstances and the timing of the assembly,
disassembly, adjustment, commissioning and are therefore always to adapt to the application.
Mounting:
‐Switch off all equipment, machinery, equipment which is affected by the installation or repair and
disconnect the equipment, machinery, plant, where appropriate, from the net!
Check whether the plant shut‐down causes potential danger ! Inform the shift foreman, safety
engineer or the conductor immediately to prevent a fault in the actuator, by run out or spilling of
liquids or leakage of gases, with suitable measures!
‐Check the correct function of the safety devices (e.g. Emergency‐Stop‐Switch/Safety valves
etc.) !
‐Provide for adequate vibration isolation! Vibrations can cause damage depending on the type or
resonance with the actuator components. Be particularly sensitive to wearing parts such as
potentiometers, motors or electronic components. The use in vibration‐prone environments has
to be coordinated with the actuator manufacturer.
‐When installed in wet environments and in areas with significant temperature changes in each
case the built‐in control room heater has to be kept actively after the actuator is stopping in the
end position.
‐Fireplaces, stoves, direct sunlight and other heat sources can emit large amounts of energy.
This heat radiation should be avoided by appropriate shielding of the actuator.
Setting and Commissioning:
‐Make sure that the starting or the test settings on the actuator, no potential hazards to personnel
or the environment.
‐If necessary, set up warning signs, so that unintentional operation is prevented.
‐During commissioning of the electric part turn actuator manually or electrically, the position of an
attached valve is changed. This allows the flow of gases, vapours, liquids, etc. are enabled or
interrupted.
‐Check that the valve is actually closed 100 percent when the controller signals the
corresponding position!
‐Avoid being trapped by suitable measures that by moving parts limbs.
‐The actuator may be used only for the purpose it was designed.
‐Open the electric rotary actuator only so far as it is described in this documentation.
‐Before mounting the actuator is the ease of movement of the actuator to consider.
‐All cables that are to be connected to the supply, before the electrical installation.
‐Upon completion of maintenance or repair, check the correct function and possibly adhering to
the target angular position of the actuator and the function of the adjusted to the angular
positions switch.
‐To clean the housing, do not use abrasive, corrosive or flammable cleaners or high‐pressure
cleaning equipment.
Installation:
Environment:
The actuator must be protected against outdoor heating by solar radiation, freezing, UV radiation
(e.g. shelter / roof).To avoid condensation, the control room heater must be active, i.e. the supply
voltage must be applied continuously.
Cabling and connector seals should be checked for proper fit and tightness. In cold or hot liquids
above or below the temperature range (‐20°C to 70°C), a temperature derivative should be provided.
In applications where vibrations are expected, e.g. compressors, motors, line strokes, in the pipeline
pipe compensators have to be provided.
Mounting:
According to the use‐ and safety‐ requirements, the part of the plant design or operator has to require
inspection‐ and maintenance‐ cycles as well as instructions and documentations on the operating
characteristics of the actuators. It should be noted that the manual override is accessible and the position
indicator is visible. Depending on the version the actuator is pre‐adjusted according to the imprint. You may
adjust the swivel angle (see "position adjustment"). The assembly of the actuator is limited to the
mechanical assembly in that equipment / machinery / plant part, which contains the actuating device and
to the terminal of the actuator to the motor actuator‐ and control lines.
To the following description we assume that you have read the previous chapter carefully. Pay attention to
the assembly and disassembly instructions and warning notes written in the chapter on safety advise.
Maintenance:
The actuators require no maintenance. A control test to function according to the security requirements of
the plant system is recommended, especially for seldom‐used actuators. After commissioning, the
connection of the actuator with the valve should be checked after some time. Here also the ease of the
assembled valve is to be tested. Generally attention must be paid to tight fit of the lid and the tightness of
the cable gland. Unused connectors must be covered accordingly. After long plant shut‐downs valves can
be extremely stiff. A manual actuation (without any actuator) might be necessary before restarting (notice
instructions of the valve suppliers).
Installation:
Mounting of the valve
The valves shall be designed according to interface DIN3337/IS05211. All alignment of actuator and valve
shaft must be ensured.
The technical requirements must comply with the performance of the actuators. Blocking the output shaft
or the hand controls may result in damage to the actuator.
Insertion depth of the actuator wave socket
The insertion depth of the valves square socket to be assembled to the actuators double square socket
should be always less than or equal to the insertion depth d actuator.
As a rule of thumb for planners of octagon and adaption is at least:
lnsertion depth = size of the specified double squares
Should this not be considered, it may cause a malfunction or even damage of the actuator.
Recommendatlon:
lf possible, use headless screws with nuts and washers for the construction of the valve, so raising the
flange is prevented. The use of threaded pins depends on the valve flange. Details can be found in the
valve data
Advantages of using threaded pins:
fast centring of the valve and actuator
easier removal of the valve and actuator in the place of assembly, e.g. during maintenance, replacement
of components
Installation:
FAQ:
The actuator moves and then stops. The operating LED flashes red or green (see status LED).
»» High torque on the valve due to not removed end stops or solids in the valve. Valve must be checked!
»» Model size of the actuator is too small.
The actuator is in position „open“ but the valve is closed or half opened.
»» Actuator is mounted on the valve with a wrong angle. Dismount, turn the actuator in manual mode to
correct angle, mount it.
The limit switches for end position feedback do not work.
»» Check the wiring. Check the adjustment of the cams so that they trigger shortly before reaching the end
position.
»» In load‐free interrogation of the limit switch, soot is formed inside. Actuator with gold contact switches
are to be used.
The actuator moves, but the valve does not.
»» The connection between actuator and valve is damaged or incorrectly dimensioned.
