rotor Instruction manual for ‘K’ Range Syncropak and Syncroset electric valve actuators K30, K60, K150, K300, K500, K600, K800 and K1000 actuators Publication BRV6/4 Issue 11/04 If your actuator cannot be installed immediately store tin & ‘ry place until required and do not break conduit entry seal until youre ready to wire up. ‘The Rotork double sealed construction will preserve intemal ‘electrical components perfectly, flett undisturbed. Rotork cannot accept responsibilty for deterioration caused onsite once the actuatorcovers are removed. Every Rotork actuator has been fully tested before leaving the factory to give you years of trouble free operation provideditis correctly installed and sealed. Contents Page 1.

DONOT | use crow bar to it the top cover of wooden casing by Using the actuatorhandwheelas @fulerum point. 2. On opening the case, check actuators for visible damages and take immediate action to notity insurance damages are tied. It damaged parts are not attended especialy on Switch Mech side, the IP 68 sealing effect willbe lost and components may got rusted, 8. Though actuators are made to IP6®, ensure that ifthe actuators are not used immediately, they are stored in a covered dry lace and do not break the seals Le. sealing plugs & screwed ‘collar. therwisethe eect of IP6S willbe lost. 4. When the drive sleeve is taken out for machining and while rofixing, please ensure that the drive slot in the sleeve is in ‘alignment withthe centre column drive dogs. Also ensure that te) “0 Rings are intact and not damaged. DO NOT modlty any ‘sctuatorcomponents withoutourpermission. ‘5. While mounting an actuator onto a valve, please make sure that ‘te comect valve and actuator aro coupled. If an oversized ‘actuators coupled toa valve, then the valve stem will got bent the base will get damaged, Ifthe actuator is too small for the ‘plication, the actuator wil not be able to cose the valve tight shut. 6, DONOT star an actuator at the end of its travel. Always check that the actuator and the valve are in the midway of thelr travel to allow forthe checking ot the rection ot rotation. 7. DO NOT ty to run a syncroset actuator trom direct three phase ‘supply. Always take the power supply through a contol box with Contactors and ensure thatthe correct direction of rotation Is given to the actuator. '8, Always connect the actuator motor thermostat in series wth the contactor colls (both open “& close contactors) for motor protection. 8. DO NOT engage the hand auto lever when the actuator is running. 10. DO NOT use intemal appliances lke pipes and crow bare to increase the leverage of hand auto lever or handwheel. This wal only demage the internal pars of actuator, 11, When engaging the hand auto lever please make sure that he {dogs in clutch ring and handwheal arent against each other. ths ‘can be seen ifthe hand auto lever does not go fully to its stop positon. both the dogs are against each other, release the mans ‘auto lever andtum the handwheelurher by about 45 degr=s 180 of engagement. 12, Please make sure thatthe sealing 0’ Rings arekapt sate when any ofthe actuator covers ara removed.

Also onsute to replace ther ‘correct postion when refxing the cover and make sure tnt tro ‘cover screws are fully ightened atter assembly. 419 DO NOT use one operator to engage the hand auto lever and = second operatorto rotate the hand wheel atthe sametime, as :1's Practice may cause damage fo the handwheel dogs and clutch dogs. One operator can engage and operate the hand auto ‘mechanism, ‘14. When the actuators ited tothe valve, DONOT laythe vawve ana the actuator assembly onthe flor such a fashion thatthe total weight ofthe complate value is resting onthe actuator or on the hand auto lever ofthe actuator. Aways res the unit on a wooden block at an angle such that the actuator is clear ofall weight or ‘contact withthe floor or other obstructions and thus damaces are avoided, 15. DONOT itt more than one actuator at atime (oven when using a crane) since damage can be caused by crashing one actus: ‘against another. 16. Insta the actuator as per the instruction manual w' despatched along with each actuator. 17. Ensure isolation of power betore opening electrical comeartment 418. Ensure thatthe valve spindle is kept clean andlighty lubvcated 19. Ensure that covers ae fited correctly a all mes and thatthe coverholding serews are uly tightened 20.
