Fig 1.1 Identification of Valve
2. Transportation, Reception and Storage

Valves are being packed in cartons, boxes or pallets while shipping to the customer.
While loading & unloading check for any arrow mark on cartons, boxes or pallets as indicating
upward position.
When handling the valve or the valve package, bear in mind its weight. Use crane to lift and mount
the valve on pipeline.
Place the rope securely around the valve body while handling the valve (Fig. 2.2). Lift the valve only
as shown in Fig 2.3. Lifting the valve from any other location may damage the valve / automation
components.
We recommend storing of the valves should be indoor in a dry and dust free atmosphere, protected
from rain & storm.
All wrapping and protection on the valves should not be removed until the valve is ready for
installation. All valves shall be duly packed and delivered with disc in partially open position.
While unpacking the valve, ensure that the valve and other accessories have not been damaged
during transportation.
Placing the valve directly on the ground or on a concrete floor should be avoided.
Always place the valve preferably on rubber sheets laid on ground.

3. Dos and Donts

Dos
It is recommended always, to use the Installation, Operation & Maintenance Manual before
installing, operating or repairing of any TOV.
Use the valve for specified application only. User to ensure that the valve is used only for the
specified application as agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser.
Follow the safety rules and regulations. User of the valve must be aware of all the safety rules and
regulations related to a particular environment in which the valve is to be used.
Be aware of the type of media involved. Protect people and the environment from any harmful or
poisonous substances. Make sure that no dust; dirt can enter the pipeline during the valve
maintenance.
Periodically ensure the tightness of Gland plate & Bottom flange joint bolting.
Always use dry, dust & moisture free air while opening the valve with pneumatic actuator or for
cleaning purposes.
Ensure that thorough ventilation is provided while working on the close equipment.
Dont
Do not drag the valve on bare floor.
Do not exceed the valve pressure/temperature rating limitations.
(Exceeding the pressure/temperature rating limitations marked on the valve may result in major
damage or personal injury. Users of these valves should ensure that the valve
pressure/temperature is less than or equal to the rated pressure/temperatures. If required, end user
should incorporate appropriate limiting/monitoring devices in the system for the safe operation of
the valve.)
Do not disassemble the valve or remove it from the pipeline while the valve is in pressurized
condition.
(Disassembling or removing a valve in pressurized condition will result in uncontrolled pressure
release. Always isolate the relevant part of the pipeline, release the pressure from the valve and
remove the media before dismantling the valve.)
Do not pressurize the line without a Gear operator / actuation device properly installed & working on
the valve.
Do not try to rectify the valve leakage by reworking of seal ring. Leaking seal ring has to be replaced
with the new TriTork genuine seal ring.
Do not allow any such process that may generate spark, particularly working in Hydrogen or
Oxygen service line or any such inflammable fluids.
4. Installation
Before installation, clean valve ends & bore using Acetone / suitable commercial solvent or as per
the Customers requirement.
Valves are bi-directional and can be installed in either direction. But TriTork recommends putting
shaft side towards upstream side.
Clean the pipeline to avoid damage of the super finish seal ring due to impurity, welding residuals,
debris, scaling, etc.
Keep the valve in closed position while installing in the pipeline.
Never install the Valve with the Actuator on the underneath side in the pipeline. (Fig. 4.1)
Fig 4.1 Avoid this mounting position.
Fig 4.2 Supporting the valve
Fig 4.3 Valve Installation
FLANGE AND PIPING COMPATIBILITY

Valve should be checked for identification purpose and ensure that characteristics of valve matches
to those specified for piping specifications, for the line where the valve is to be mounted. Nameplate
instructions will give the necessary information.
The Triple Offset valves have been designed for installation between flanges made in accordance
with ASME B16.5 (for 3 to 24) & ASME B16.47 Series B (for 26 & above) as a standard.
Make sure that during opening of disc, there is no interference between the seal ring and piping.
If the pipeline is lined, confirm that the disc does not come in contact with the lining during opening
stroke. Failure to confirm that the disc rotation does not contact the lining may result in damage to
the valve.
During installation, valve should be in closed position so that the seal ring does not get damaged.
The mating flanges shall be aligned before final tightening of the flange bolts to ensure proper valve
operation and the seating of any seals and gaskets.
Particular care should be taken with those valves equipped with fail-open actuators while
installation.
INSTALLATION OF VALVES IN AN EXISITING PIPING - PRACTICE
Confirm that the distance between the flanges is as per valve face-to-face dimension. Stretch the
pipe flanges using a proper tool, to make the fitting easier.
Close the valve properly to keep the disc inside the valve face-to-face dimension.
Insert the valve between the flanges, centering the body and insert all the bolts.
Keep the valve aligned between the flanges and close the bolts.
Rotate the disc in counter-clockwise direction and check the disc/seal ring clearance in the pipe.
Now bring the disc in full open position and close the bolts in a cross sequence.
INSTALLATION OF VALVES IN A NEW PIPING - PRACTICE
Close the disc fully and center the valve between the flanges.
Close the valve body between some bolts and closes them partially.
Use the assembly valve/flanges for centering the valve in the piping.
Tack welds the flanges to the piping.
Remove the valve and bolts from the piping before full welding.
Dont weld the pipe on line with valve fitted as the heat may damage the valve seal ring.
Complete the welding and allow cooling.
Install the valve by same sequence as per installation in an existing piping / practice
VALVE REMOVAL FROM THE PIPING
Release the pressure from the pipeline and remove the media before valve removal from piping.
Turn the valve disc in fully closed position.
Release and remove the bolts.
Stretch pipe flanges using a proper tool.
Remove the valve.
5. Operation of the Valve

Clockwise rotation of shaft closes the valve & counter-clockwise rotation opens the valves.
Do not disturb the Valve automation adjustment setting; unless & until it is required.
For constructional details of Valve automation, refer General Arrangement Drawing.
The valve closes in clockwise direction and can be rotated through 90 to the fully open or fully
close position. The valve disc open and close status can be visually identified by dimple position
provided on shaft. Refer figure 5.2
Valve should be opened and closed slowly to avoid hammering effect on the valve and pipeline.
Once the flushing is complete, valve should be operated 3-4 times and then kept in the fully open
position.
If the valve is not operating to fully open or fully closed position, and/or leaking, do not apply
excessive force to operate the valve. This can damage the seal ring or shaft.
Fig No. 5.2: VALVE OPEN/CLOSE ORIENTATION

7. Preventive Maintenance
Note: Observe the safety precautions as outlined in Dos & Donts before performing maintenance.
In order to avoid valve failure during operation, all valves should be periodically inspected
thoroughly to detect the damage of seal ring, shaft, seals and even body.
While doing periodical checks, it is recommended that the seal ring, bottom gaskets, seals and shaft
packing should be replaced by genuine spares.
The type of process fluids involved, working conditions and location of the valves in the plants, will
determine the frequency of periodic inspection / maintenance which in fact will be made at the time
of partial or total shutdown of the plant.
Preventive maintenance is absolutely essential as the failure due to lack of the same may cause an
emergency shutdown of the plant.
Section 9 describes the procedure for complete dis-assembly & re-assembly of the valve. The
procedure for a valve failing during operation due to lack of preventive maintenance is mentioned
under maintenance of shaft packing, seal ring & bottom flange gasket.
Once a valve is repaired, it should undergo a complete set of tests to make sure that the valve is
adequate for the original working conditions. Hydro/Pneumatic tests should be carried out as per
the specifications relevant to the valve. (Refer General Arrangement Drawing).

Instrument Air Quality Standard (ANSI/ISA-S7.0.01-1996)

Instrument air quality standard establishes four elements of instrument air
quality for use in pneumatic instruments
1. Pressure Dew point
The pressure dew point as measured at the dew point outlet shall be at least
10 deg C (18 deg F) below the minimum temperature to which any apart of
the instrument air system is exposed. The pressure dew point shall not
exceed 4 deg C (39 deg F) at line pressure. A monitored alarm is preferred .
However if a monitored alarm is not available , then per shift monitoring is
recommended. ( for explanation of "Dew point" see Appendix A below)
2. Particle size
A maximum 40 micrometer particle size in the instrument air system is
acceptable for the majority of pneumatic devices. Pneumatic devices that
require instrument air with less than 40 micrometer particle size shall have
additional filtration to meet the particulate size limit for the device.
Subsequent to any maintenance or modification of the air system ,
maximum particle size in the instrument air system should be verified to be
less than 40 micrometers.
3. Lubricant Content
The lubricant content should be as close to zero as possible, and under no
circumstances shall it exceed 1 ppm w/w or v/v. Any lubricant in the
compressed air system shall be evaluated for compatibility with end-use
pneumatic devices. For example , the use of automatic oilers is strongly
discouraged.
4. Contaminants
Instrument air should be free of corrosive contaminants and hazardous
gases , which could be drawn in the instrument air supply .The air supply
intake should be monitored for contaminants. If contaminants exists in the
compressor intake area , the intake should be moved to a different elevation
or location free from contamination. Some sources of contamination are:
a. painting
b. chemical cleaning
c. engine exhaust
Appendix A
ISA-S7.0.01 establishes a maximum pressure dew point to protect the
instrument air systems from the presence of moisture.
Compression and cooling stages in an instrument air system causes
condensation. Compression increases the partial pressure of the water
vapour present. If the water vapour partial pressure is increased to the
saturation water vapour pressure , condensation occurs. Cooling reduces the
saturation water vapour pressure , a temperature dependent variable .If the
saturation water vapour pressure is reduced to the partial pressure of the
water vapour present , water or ice will result. Therefore, moisture removal
is a major consideration of instrument air treatment systems.
The most common methods of moisture removal are compression cooling ,
absorption, chemical methods, mechanical separation, and combination of
these methods.
Note : This is only a small extract of ISA standard ANSI/ISA-S7.0.011996.For complete information please refer the ISA document mentioned.

Introduction
This manual is produced to enable a competent user to install, operate, adjust, inspect, and maintain Rotork Fluid Systems GP
range actuators. Users are responsible to follow the instructions in this manual as well as any additional documentation that
has been supplied regarding the actuator or accessories supplied by Rotork Fluid Systems. Should further information or
guidance relating to the safe use of GP range actuators be required, it will be provided on request. Users are also responsible to
be familiar with and follow any relevant legislation or statutory provisions regarding health and safety.
It is the users responsibility to ensure that the equipment is operated in a safe manner and that any personnel working with or
on the equipment are properly trained for the work they are performing and are also aware of their responsibilities relating to
health and safety in the workplace. It is extremely important that precautions are taken to avoid spark or static discharge in any
areas of potentially explosive atmosphere.
All Rotork Fluid Systems actuators are tested prior to despatch. Job specific documentation is shipped with the actuator. Test
certificates and replacement documentation are available upon request. The latest general information regarding any Rotork
product is available on our website www.rotork.com.
INSTALLATION
2.0
Installation
2.1
Electrical Considerations
2.1.1
Any electrical connections required are the responsibility of the user. Connection documentation is supplied with the actuator.
Refer to the applicable wiring diagram to identify functions of terminals. Verify that the electrical supply characteristics are
compatible with the supplied actuator control components.
2.1.2
Only appropriate certified explosion-proof entry reducers, glands or conduit may be used if the unit is installed in a hazardous
area. Remove any plastic transit plugs. Make cable entries appropriate to the cable type and size. Ensure that threaded
adaptors, cable glands or conduit are tight and fully waterproof. Seal unused cable entries with a steel or brass plug. In
hazardous areas an appropriately certified threaded blanking plug must be used.
2.1.3
Access to live electrical conductors is forbidden in hazardous areas unless done under a special permit to work. Otherwise, all
power should be isolated and the unit moved to a non-hazardous area for repair or attention.
2.1.4
The actuator and control components must be protected from electrical spikes, surges, and lightning strikes as well as
magnetic or electro-magnetic fields. This is the responsibility of the user.
2.2
Motive Power Supply (pneumatic, hydraulic)
2.2.1
Ensure that the actuator will not be exposed to pressure in excess to the maximum rating as indicated on the nameplate.
2.2.2
Verify that medium composition (e.g., filtration, hydration) correspond to that for with the actuator was manufactured.
Rotork Fluid System must be contacted to verify compatibility of any proposed changes to supply medium.
2.2.3
Ensure that throughout the installation that there are no leaks of a potentially explosive supply medium (e.g., natural gas).
Note: Depending upon control circuit design, pneumatically powered actuators may exhaust the power supply gas to
atmosphere in the course of normal operation. This may present an unacceptable hazard in some applications. Consult Rotork
Fluid Systems if in doubt as to the suitability of the equipment supplied for your application.

INSTALLATION
GP RANGE
2.3
Maximum Allowable Temperature
2.3.1
The maximum temperature allowable for standard build actuators is 100C (212F).Other maximum temperature build
options are available. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the maximum allowable temperature as indicated on the
nameplate is not exceeded and also, in the case of sites where a potentially explosive atmosphere may exist, that the surface
temperature of the actuator does not exceed the ignition point of the potentially explosive atmosphere.
2.3.2
Be aware that the temperature of the contents of the valve/pipeline as well as that of the power supply gas will affect actuator
temperature. A build up of dust or dirt on the actuator can inhibit cooling and contribute to increased surface temperatures.
The user should plan and provide for a periodic cleaning/maintenance program that will maintain the installation environment
per the guidelines set forth in EN 1127-1 par 6.4.2.
2.4
Operating Environment
2.4.1
The user must ensure that the operating environment and any materials surrounding the unit cannot lead to a reduction in the
safe use of, or the protection afforded by the actuator. Where appropriate, the user must ensure the actuator is suitably
protected against its operating environment including, but not limited to, lightning strikes, vibration sources and vehicular
movement.
2.4.2
If the unit has a nameplate indicating that it is suitable for installation in potentially explosive atmosphere (hazardous area), it
must not be installed in a hazardous area that is not compatible with the gas groups and temperature class defined on the
nameplate.
2.5
Mechanical Considerations
2.5.1
It is recommended that before lifting an actuator onto a valve, great care is taken to ascertain the position of the valve and
orientate the actuator accordingly.
2.5.2
Rotork actuators can be mounted on valves in almost any desired position. It is usual however to align the centerline of the
cylinder to the centerline of the associated pipe work.
Note: Certain accessory and control components e.g., filter drains, hydraulic reservoirs; require proper orientation with
respect to gravity to function properly. Contact Rotork Fluid Systems if in doubt.
2.5.3
Ensure all fasteners are adequately tighten to avoid loosening during the course of operation, taking into account vibration
induced by the dynamics of the pipeline.
2.54
All tubing used to provide pneumatic/hydraulic power to the actuator must be free from contaminants and debris. Ensure
tubing runs are adequately fastened and supported to minimise repetitive stress induced by any vibration induced by the
dynamics of the pipeline.
2.5.5
When the actuator has been bolted to the flange or adapter, the position of the stop bolts should be checked to ensure full
opening and closing of the valve. If these end of travel positions are not correct, the stop bolts may be adjusted by first
loosening the fixing nut and then screwing the bolts in or out until desired end position is obtained. Stroke the yoke away from
the stop bolt when adjusting, then return it to check position. When the correct positioning is obtained, re-tighten the fixing
nut.
2.5.6
Certain valves incorporate their own stops. In these cases it is recommended that the actuator stop bolt positions coincide
with the valve stop positions.
2.5.7
Ensure there are no leaks from any pneumatic or hydraulic connections. Tighten as required.
2.5.8
Once in position, the actuator should operate the valve with a smooth continuous action. If uneven operation occurs, the
pneumatic/hydraulic power supply should be checked for correct pressure and volume flow. Flow may be restricted by
undersize pipe or fittings. These could throttle the flow thus reducing the pressure and volume at the actuator and causing
intermittent motion. Further fault detection procedures are outlined in Section 6.

MAINTENANCE
GP RANGE
3.0
Maintenance
3.1
Rotork actuators are designed to work for long periods of time in the most severe conditions. However, a preventative
approach to maintenance helps prevent costly down time and can actually reduce the cost of ownership. Rotork can provide
an actuator maintenance contract tailored to meet each customers individual requirements.
3.2
Any personnel working with or on the equipment must be properly trained for the work they are performing and be aware of
their responsibilities relating to health and safety in the workplace.
3.3
No inspection or repair should be undertaken unless it conforms to any applicable hazardous area certification requirements.
Under no circumstances should any modification or alteration be carried out on the unit as this could invalidate the
certification.
3.4
Before performing maintenance, the actuator should be isolated from remote control signals and the pneumatic/hydraulic
power supply. The system should be then be relieved of any internal pressure prior to disassembly.
3.5
Improper operation, adjustment or maintenance of the actuator and controls may, depending on the application, release
potentially explosive gas and or dangerous liquids.
3.6
After maintenance has been performed and re-assembly completed, follow the inspection guidelines as outlined section 3.6.
3.7
Periodic Inspection
3.7.1
Ensure that the actuator correctly operates the valve within the required cycle time. The actuator should be cycled several
times with all the existing controls e.g., remote control, local control and manual override; particularly if the actuator is not
frequently operated.
3.7.2
Verify that the power gas supply pressure value is within the required range.
3.7.3
Visually inspect external components of the actuator for physical damage.
3.7.4
Check pneumatic/hydraulic connections for leakage. Tighten pipe fittings as required.
3.7.5
Remove dust and dirt build-up from all actuator surfaces. They can inhibit cooling thus raising the temperature of the
actuator above the maximum allowable limit.
3.7.6
Inspect actuator paint work for damaged to ensure continued corrosion protection. Touch-up as required to applicable paint
specification.

APPENDIX A - Stop Bolt Adjustment
GP RANGE

1.0
Overview
1.3
All RFS G Range actuators (ie., GP, GH, GO and HPG) incorporate adjustable stops
to limit the degree of travel in both directions. Steps are outlined below for
adjustment of the three stop configurations: pneumatic/hydraulic cylinder, spring
cartridge and, jackscrew.
Note: The jackscrew is not designed

to function as a travel stop.
Stroking the actuator against
the jackscrew may damage it.
Actuators may be damaged by improper adjustment procedure. Strictly follow

the instructions as outlined below with particular attention to the warnings is
steps 1.1.3, 1.2.2, 1.3 and 1.3.3.
1.1
1.2
Pneumatic/Hydraulic

Spring Canister
(See figure 2)
1.1.1 Remove stop bolt cover.
1.2.1 Remove the spring stop cap.
1.1.2 Loosen stop nut.
1.2.2 Depressurize the cylinder to

allow the spring to relax.
Failure to do so may result in
damage to the actuator!
1.1.3 Apply pressure to outboard

side of cylinder to remove load
from stop bolt. Failure to do so
may result in damage to the
actuator!
1.2.3 Adjust the spring stop in/out as

desired.
1.1.5 Remove pressure from cylinder

to verify stop position.
1.2.4 Pressurize to outboard side of

power cylinder sufficiently to
induce a complete stroke of
the actuator and then check
the stop position.
1.1.6 Repeat steps 1.1.3 - 1.1.5 as

necessary to achieve desired
degree of travel.
1.2.5 Repeat steps 1.2.2 - 1.2.4 as

degree of travel.
1.1.7 Once desired position is

achieved, tighten stop nut,

Introduction
This manual is produced to enable a competent user to install, operate, adjust, inspect, and maintain Rotork Fluid Systems CP
range actuators. Users are responsible to follow the instructions in this manual as well as any additional documentation that
has been supplied regarding the actuator or accessories supplied by Rotork Fluid Systems. Should further information or
guidance relating to the safe use of CP Range actuators be required, it will be provided on request. Users are also responsible to
be familiar with and follow any relevant legislation or statutory provisions regarding health and safety.
It is the users responsibility to ensure that the equipment is operated in a safe manner and that any personnel working with or
on the equipment are properly trained for the work they are performing and are also aware of their responsibilities relating to
health and safety in the workplace. It is extremely important that precautions are taken to avoid spark or static discharge in any
areas of potentially explosive atmosphere.
All Rotork Fluid Systems actuators are tested prior to despatch. Job specific documentation is shipped with the actuator. Test
certificates and replacement documentation are available upon request. The latest general information regarding any Rotork
product is available on our website www.rotork.com.
INSTALLATION
2.0
Installation
2.1
Electrical Considerations
2.1.1
Any electrical connections required are the responsibilty of the user. Connection documentation is supplied with the actuator.
Refer to the applicable wiring diagram to identify functions of terminals. Verify that the electrical supply characteristics are
compatible with the supplied actuator control components.
2.1.2
Only appropriate certified explosion-proof entry reducers, glands or conduit may be used if the unit is installed in a hazardous
area. Remove any plastic transit plugs. Make cable entries appropriate to the cable type and size. Ensure that threaded
adaptors, cable glands or conduit are tight and fully waterproof. Seal unused cable entries with a steel or brass plug. In
hazardous areas an appropriately certified threaded blanking plug must be used.
2.1.3
Access to live electrical conductors is forbidden in hazardous areas unless done under a special permit to work. Otherwise, all
power should be isolated and the unit moved to a non-hazardous area for repair or attention.
2.1.4
The actuator and control components must be protected from electrical spikes, surges, and lightning strikes as well as
magnetic or electro-magnetic fields. This is the responsibility of the user.
2.2
Motive Power Supply (pneumatic, hydraulic)
2.2.1
Ensure that the actuator will not be exposed to pressure in excess to the maximum rating as indicated on the nameplate.
2.2.2
Verify that medium composition (e.g., filtration, hydration) correspond to that for with the actuator was manufactured.
Rotork Fluid Systems must be contacted to verify compatibility of any proposed changes to supply medium.
2.2.3
Ensure that throughout the installation that there are no leaks of a potentially explosive supply medium (e.g., natural gas).
Note: Depending upon control circuit design, pneumatically powered actuators may exhaust the power supply gas to
atmosphere in the course of normal operation. This may present an unacceptable hazard in some applications. Consult Rotork
Fluid Systems if in doubt as to the suitability of the equipment supplied for your application.

INSTALLATION
CP RANGE
2.3
Maximum Allowable Temperature
2.3.1
The maximum temperature allowable for standard build actuators is 100C (212F). Other maximum temperature build
options are available. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the maximum allowable temperature as indicated on the
nameplate is not exceeded and also, in the case of sites where a potentially explosive atmosphere may exist, that the surface
temperature of the actuator does not exceed the ignition point of the potentially explosive atmosphere.
2.3.2
Be aware that the temperature of the contents of the valve/pipeline as well as that of the power supply gas will affect actuator
temperature. A build up of dust or dirt on the actuator can inhibit cooling and contribute to increased surface temperatures.
The user should plan and provide for a periodic cleaning/maintenance program that will maintain the installation environment
per the guidelines set forth in EN 1127-1 par 6.4.2.
2.4
Operating Environment
2.4.1
The user must ensure that the operating environment and any materials surrounding the unit cannot lead to a reduction in the
safe use of, or the protection afforded by the actuator. Where appropriate, the user must ensure the actuator is suitably
protected against its operating environment including, but not limited to, lightning strikes, vibration sources and vehicular
movement.
2.4.2
If the unit has a nameplate indicating that it is suitable for installation in potentially explosive atmosphere (hazardous area), it
must not be installed in a hazardous area that is not compatible with the gas groups and temperature class defined on the
nameplate.
2.5
Mechanical Considerations
2.5.1
It is recommended that before lifting an actuator onto a valve, great care is taken to ascertain the position of the valve and
orientate the actuator accordingly.
2.5.2
Rotork actuators can be mounted on valves in almost any desired position. It is usual however to align the centerline of the
cylinder to the centerline of the associated pipe work.
Note: Certain accessory and control components e.g., filter drains, hydraulic reservoirs; require proper orientation with
respect to gravity to function properly. Contact Rotork Fluid Systems if in doubt.
2.5.3
Ensure all fasteners are adequately tighten to avoid loosening during the course of operation, taking into account vibration
induced by the dynamics of the pipeline.
2.54
All tubing used to provide pneumatic/hydraulic power to the actuator must be free from contaminants and debris. Ensure
tubing runs are adequately fastened and supported to minimise repetitive stress induced by any vibration induced by the
dynamics of the pipeline.
2.5.5
When the actuator has been bolted to the flange or adapter, the position of the stop bolts should be checked to ensure full
opening and closing of the valve. If these end of travel positions are not correct, the stop bolts may be adjusted by first
loosening the fixing nut and then screwing the bolts in or out until desired end position is obtained. Stroke the yoke away from
the stop bolt when adjusting, then return it to check position. When the correct positioning is obtained, re-tighten the fixing
nut.
2.5.6
Certain valves incorporate their own stops. In these cases it is recommended that the actuator stop bolt positions coincide
with the valve stop positions.
2.5.7
Ensure there are no leaks from any pneumatic or hydraulic connections. Tighten as required.
2.5.8
Once in position, the actuator should operate the valve with a smooth continuous action.If uneven operation occurs, the
pneumatic/hydraulic power supply should be checked for correct pressure and volume flow. Flow may be restricted by
undersize pipe or fittings. These could throttle the flow thus reducing the pressure and volume at the actuator and causing
intermittent motion. Further fault detection procedures are outlined in Section 6.

MAINTENANCE
CP RANGE
3.0
Maintenance
3.1
Rotork actuators are designed to work for long periods of time in the most severe conditions. However, a preventative
approach to maintenance helps prevent costly down time and can actually reduce the cost of ownership. Rotork can provide
an actuator maintenance contract tailored to meet each customers individual requirements.
3.2
Any personnel working with or on the equipment must be properly trained for the work they are performing and be aware of
their responsibilities relating to health and safety in the workplace.
3.3
No inspection or repair should be undertaken unless it conforms to any applicable hazardous area certification requirements.
Under no circumstances should any modification or alteration be carried out on the unit as this could invalidate the
certification.
3.4
Before performing maintenance, the actuator should be isolated from remote control signals and the pneumatic/hydraulic
power supply. The system should be then be relieved of any internal pressure prior to disassembly.
3.5
Improper operation, adjustment or maintenance of the actuator and controls may, depending on the application, release
potentially explosive gas and or dangerous liquids.
3.6
After maintenance has been performed and re-assembly completed, follow the inspection guidelines as outlined section 3.6.
3.7
Periodic Inspection
3.7.1
Ensure that the actuator correctly operates the valve within the required cycle time. The actuator should be cycled several
times with all the existing controls e.g., remote control, local control and manual override; particularly if the actuator is not
frequently operated.
3.6.2
Verify that the power gas supply pressure value is within the required range.
3.7.3
Visually inspect external components of the actuator for physical damage.
3.7.4
Check pneumatic/hydraulic connections for leakage. Tighten pipe fittings as required.
3.7.5
Remove dust and dirt build-up from all actuator surfaces. They can inhibit cooling thus raising the temperature of the
actuator above the maximum allowable limit.
3.7.6
Inspect actuator paint work for damaged to ensure continued corrosion protection. Touch-up as required to applicable paint
specification.

an der Auenseite des Gehuses erlaubt bis zu 4 mm2.
Der Schutzleiter ist immer anzuschlieen.
Anschlussklemmen
Bei den Klemmen handelt es sich um schraubenlose
Klemmen; die Klemmkraft wird allein durch ein Federelement aufgebracht. Zur Bettigung wird ein schmaler
Schraubendreher in eine der kleinen Schlitzffnungen
der Klemme eingeschoben (siehe Abb.). Damit ffnet
sich die Federklemme. Nach dem Einstecken der Kabellitze wird der Schraubendreher wieder herausgezogen
und der Anschluss ist hergestellt.

Kabel
Bei der Auswahl der Anschlussleitung sind sowohl die
erforderliche Kabelqualitt (EN 60079-14) als auch der
Durchmesserbereich der Kabelverschraubung zu beachten. Bei Verwendung einer Silikon- (bzw. silikonhaltigen)
Anschlussleitung bzw. einer nicht ritzbestndigen Leitung
ist diese gegen mechanische Beschdigung zu schtzen
(z.B. unterbrochenes Rohrsystem mit Kantenschutz).
Bei hheren Umgebungstemperaturen ist zu beachten:
Betrieb
100% ED sind auch bei den ungnstigsten zulssigen
Umgebungsbedingungen erlaubt.
Im Betrieb ist sicherzustellen, dass weder die max. zul.
Umgebungs- und Fluidtemperaturen noch die Grenzleistung (max. 10% berspannung) berschritten werden. Gegebenenfalls ist der Magnet gegen berlast zu
schtzen.
Alle Magnete sind mit einem Varistor beschaltet. Zur
Vermeidung von Abschaltspannungsspitzen, die in der
Anlage zu Schden fhren knnen, muss der Anwender
ggf. ber den eingebauten Varistor hinausgehende geeignete Schutzmanahmen vorsehen.
Die Oberflche des Magneten kann bei Dauerbetrieb sehr
hei werden. Achtung: Verletzungsgefahr beim Berhren!

dann muss das Kabel >95 C temperaturbestndig sein.
Werden die in Tabelle 1 genannten Umgebungstemperaturen nicht erreicht, ist die Verwendung normal temperaturbestndiger Kabel zulssig.
Kabelverschraubung
Die Magnete sind in der EEx md- und EEx me-Ausfhrung absolut baugleich. Die jeweilige Zndschutzart wird
also erst mit der verwendeten Kabelverschraubung festgelegt!
Es drfen ausschlielich EEx d IIC- bzw. EEx e II-Kabelverschraubungen mit entsprechender Baumusterprfbescheinigung verwendet werden. Mit einer EEx dVerschraubung entsteht so ein EEx md-Magnet und mit
einer EEx e-Verschraubung dementsprechend ein EEx
me-Magnet.
Reduzierungen, Erweiterungen und bergangsstcke
mssen ebenfalls entsprechend bescheinigt sein. Die
Kabelverschraubung muss sachgerecht montiert werden,
damit die Schutzart IP66 (EN 60529) gewhrleistet ist.
Sicherung
Die in der Typenbersicht aufgefhrten Magnete haben
eine eingebaute Sicherung, deren Ausschaltvermgen 35
A ist. Sollte der maximal anzunehmende Kurzschlussstrom am Einbauort grer als 35A sein, so ist ein Kurzschlussschutz mit folgenden Bedingungen vorzuschalten:
Sicherungsauslegung max. 3 x IB (nach IEC 60127-2-1)
bzw. ein Motorschutzschalter mit Kurzschluss- und thermischer Schnellauslsung (Einstellung auf Bemessungsstrom); Sicherungs-Bemessungsspannung gleich oder
grer als die angegebene Nennspannung des Magneten;
Ausschaltvermgen gleich oder grer als der maximal
anzunehmende Kurzschlussstrom am Einbauort (blicherweise 1500 A). Die Sicherung darf im zugehrigen
Versorgungsgert untergebracht sein oder muss separat
vorgeschaltet werden.
Deckelmontage
Nach dem Anschluss ist der Deckel wieder sorgfltig zu
montieren. Um mindestens die Schutzart IP66 zu
gewhrleisten, ist dazu (ebenso wie bei der Kabelverschraubung) die Originaldichtung zu verwenden.
Ausfhrungen, die ab Werk mit Anschlusskabel geliefert
werden, sind verwendungsfertig, d.h. der Anschlussraum
braucht nicht mehr geffnet zu werden.
CE-Kennzeichnung
Die CE-Kennzeichnung ist kein Qualittsmerkmal, sondern richtet sich an die zustndigen Behrden. Um speziell den freien Warenverkehr in der EU zu ermglichen,
hat der Europische Rat gemeinsame Richtlinien fr den
europischen Markt erlassen, die Mindestanforderungen
fr Sicherheit und Gesundheitsschutz vorgeben.
Mit der CE-Kennzeichnung wird besttigt, dass Produkte
den Richtlinien entsprechen, d.h. konform mit den einschlgigen, insbesondere harmonisierten Normen sind.
Hinweise zur Richtline 94/9/EG
(Explosionsschutzrichtlinie [ATEX 100a]):
Die Magnete entsprechen der in der EG-Baumusterprfbescheinigung PTB 02 ATEX 2085X beschriebenen
Bauart und erfllen die einschlgigen Anforderungen der
Richtlinie.
Hinweise zur Richtlinie 73/23/EWG
(Niederspannungsrichtlinie):
Die Magnete wurden unter Beachtung der Norm
Elektromagnetische Gerte DIN VDE 0580 entwickelt,
konstruiert und gefertigt. Damit werden auch die
Anforderungen der Niederspannungsrichtlinie, die fr
Nennspannungen von 50 bis 1000 V AC und von 75 bis
1500 V DC Gltigkeit hat, erfllt.
Hinweise zur Richtlinie 89/336/EWG (EMV-Richtlinie):
Die Magnete erfllen die Anforderungen der Fachgrundnormen fr Straussendung (EN 50081-1) und fr Strfestigkeit (EN 50082-2) sowohl im Industriebereich als
auch im Wohn-, Geschfts- und Gewerbebereich sowie
in Kleinbetrieben.
Elektromagnete als Antriebselement fr Ventile stellen im
Sinne der EMV-Richtlinie keine selbststndig betreibbaren Gerte dar und werden nur durch fachkundige Betriebe weiterverarbeitet bzw. in eine Maschine eingebaut.
Die Inbetriebnahme ist solange untersagt, bis festgestellt
wurde, dass die Gesamtmaschine bzw. Anlage den Bestimmungen der EMV-Richtlinie entspricht.
Jedem Magnet ist eingangsseitig ein Varisator vorgeschaltet.
Beim Einsatz von AC- und UC-Ausfhrungen wird dem
Anwender empfohlen, am Versorgungsnetzeingang ggf.
zustzlich einen geeigneten Netzfilter (z.B.: X-Kondensator 47 nF) vorzusehen, um die physikalisch bedingte
leitungsgebundene Abschaltstrung der Magnetspule zu
dmpfen.

Operating Instructions for Solenoids Type 46XX

Explosion Protection
Valve solenoids can be used
- in areas where gas-, vapour- and mist-air-mixtures are
present, i.e. in Zones 1 and 2. They correspond to Category II2G with protection class EEx md IIC T4/T5/T6 or
EEx me II T4/T5/T6.
- in areas with combustible dust in Zones 21 and 22.
They correspond to Category II2D with protection class
IP 66. Maximum surface temperature T = 130 C.
The electrical and thermal characteristics of the different
versions can be found in Table 2.
Explosions protection refers to the usage.
Electrical Connection
DC
Installation
It is essential that the appropriate explosion regulations
in particular, EN 60079-14 and EN 50281-1-2 are
observed during installation, maintenance and repair.
Electrical installation is also to be carried out by or under
the supervision of a skilled electrician taking into account
the relevant national regulations (in Germany, VDE 0100).
Before installation, the device identification information
must be compared with the planned operating conditions
to ensure compliant usage.

The solenoid is connected to the voltage supply via the

terminal. When connecting the solenoid there is no need
to take notice of the polarity.
The terminals are suitable for cross sections up to 2,5
mm 2. The terminal for the potential compensate on the
outside of the housing allows up to 4 mm 2.
The protective conductor must always be connected.
Usage, Mounting, Implementing, Service

Valve actuating solenoids are electrical components.
They are not suitable for use without the associated
valve. Valve-solenoid combinations are usually supplied
fully assembled and tested. When replacing or changing
solenoids care should be taken to ensure that the combination is approved for a Norgren-Herion valve and that
the solenoid is properly fixed to the valve (e.g. permissible tightening torque).
The solenoids are maintenance-free. Should there be
some interruptions or failures with unknown origin the
solenoids have to be changed. Damaged coils or other
electric components can not be repaired or replaced.
Solenoids that appear to be damaged must not be fitted
or must be replaced.
This especially the case for damaged surfaces on housings
and covers which build the flameproof joint. Solenoids
must not be used as lever arms. Additional protective
measures are necessary if solenoids are exposed to certain kinds of external loading.
Year of manufacture: The second figure of the 5-digit
date code corresponds to the fourth figure of the year of
manufacture (from 2000 onwards).
Terminals
The terminals are made without screws. The attachment
is only secured by a spring. To make the attachment, a
small screw driver, is pushed into one of the small slots
(see at illustration).
This then opens the spring.
After putting in the cable flex pull out the screw driver
again and the connection is established.
7503455.50.08.02
Cable
When selecting the connection cable, both the required
cable quality (EN 60079-14) and the cable gland diameter range should be taken into account. Silicone connecting leads, silicone containing connecting leads or cables
which are not scratch resistant have to be protected
against mechanical deterioration (e.g. intermittent piping
system with edge protection). In addition, the following
is applicable for versions that are supplied exworks without connecting cables:
All solenoids are fitted with a varistor. To avoid switchoff voltage spikes, which could lead to damage in the
equipment, the user must provide suitable protection
over and above the integral varistor if necessary.
Solenoid surfaces can become very hot during continuous operating. Warning: Risk of injury when touching!
CE Marking
The CE mark is not sign of quality but is directed
towards the responsible authorities.
The Council has published common directives for the
European Market especially to enable the free transfer of
goods within the EU, which prescribe minimum requirements for safety and the protection of health.
The CE mark confirms that products comply with the
Directives, i.e. conform to the relevant and in particular,
to the harmonised standards.
Comments on Directive 94/9/EC (Equipment in Explosive
Atmospheres [ATEX 100a]):
The solenoids comply with the type of construction
described in the EC Type Examination Certificate PTB 02
ATEX 2085 X and the relevant requirements of the Directive.
Comments on Directive 73/23/EEC (Low Voltage Directive):
The solenoids have been developed, designed and manufactured taking into account the standard on
Electromechanical Devices DIN VDE 0580. The requirements of the Low Voltage Directive, which is applicable
to rated voltages from 50 to 1000 V AC and from 75 to
1500 V DC, are thereby fulfilled.
Comments on Directive 89/336/EEC (EMC Directive):
The solenoids meet the requirements of the generic standards for emissions (EN 50081-1) and for immunity (EN
50082-2) both in the industrial area and in the domestic,
commercial and trading areas as well as in small businesses.
Electromagnets as actuators for valves do not represent
independently operated devices in the sense of the EMC
Directive and are only applied or fitted to a machine by
specialist operatives. It is not permissible to put the
machine into operation until it has been established that
the entire machine or system accords with the requirements of the EMC Directive.
All solenoids are fitted with a varistor. When using AC
and UC versions, the user must provide a suitable mains
filter (e.g. X-capacitor 47 nF) on the mains supply input
to suppress the physically inherent switch-off interference from the solenoid coil associated with the cables.

11 W / 13 VA
>44 C
then the cable must be able to withstand temperatures of
>95 C. If the ambient temperatures given in Table 1 are
not reached, the use of normally temperature resistant
cable is permissible.
Cable gland
The EEx md- and EEx me-versions of the solenoids are
built absolutely identically. Each type of protection will be
defined by the applied cable connectors.
Only EEx d IIC- or EEx de II-cable glands with test certificates are allowed to be used. With EEx d-connection is a
EEx md-solenoid and with a EEx e-connection is a EEx
me-solenoid.
Reductions, extentions and spare parts have to be certificated also. The cable connection has to be fitted suitably
for IP66 (EN 60529) is guaranteed.
Fuse
The solenoids of the chart are fitted with a fuse whose
breaking capacity is 35 A. Should the short circuit current at the place of fitting higher than 35A, a protection
will work and switch on a rated voltage that has at least
the nominal voltage.
Fuse assembly max. 3 x IB (according IEC 60127-2-1) or
motor protection switch with short circuit- and thermal
action (set to current rating); fuse voltage rating equal or
more than voltage rating of the solenoid; breaking capacity equal or more than max. possible fault current in the
place of installation (normally 1500 A). The fuse may be
located in power source or must be separately ballasted.
Mounting of cover
After connecting, the cover must be carefully refitted.
The original gasket must be used to guarantee a protection category of at least IP 66 (as with the cable gland).
Versions that are supplied ex-works with a connection
cable are ready for use, i.e. it is not necessary for the
terminal box to be re-opened.
Operation
100% ED is allowed even under the most unfavourable
permissible ambient conditions.
It must be ensured that neither the maximum permissible ambient and fluid temperatures nor the limiting
power (max. 10% overvoltage) are exceeded during
operation. The solenoid must be protected against overload if necessary.

PANEL MOUNTING DIMENSIONS
Panel mounting hole diameter: 48 mm (1.89")
Panel thickness: 2 to 6 mm (0.06" to 0.24")
INSTALLATION
1. Shut off air pressure. Install filter/regulator in air line vertically (bowl down),
with air flow in direction of arrow on body,
upstream of lubricators and cycling valves,
as close as possible to the device being serviced.
2. Connect piping to proper ports using pipe thread sealant
on male threads only. Do not allow sealant to enter
interior of unit.
3. Push bowl, or bowl with guard, into body and turn fully
clockwise before pressurizing.
4. Install a pressure gauge or plug the gauge ports. Gauge
ports can also be used as additional outlets for regulated air.
ADJUSTMENT
1. Before applying inlet pressure to filter/regulator, turn
adjustment (1 or 7) counterclockwise to remove all force
on regulating spring (12).
2. Apply inlet pressure, then turn adjustment (1 or 7)
clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease
pressure setting.
3. Always approach the desired pressure from a lower
pressure. When reducing from a higher to a lower
setting, first reduce to some pressure less than that
desired, then bring up to the desired pressure.
NOTE
With non-relieving filter/regulators, make pressure
reductions with some air flow in the system. If
made under no flow (dead-end) conditions, the
filter/regulator will trap the over-pressure in the
downstream line.
4. KNOB ADJUSTMENT. Push knob down to lock pressure
setting. Pull knob up to release. Install tamper resistant
cover (see Replacement Items) to make setting tamper
resistant.
5. T-BAR ADJUSTMENT. Tighten lock nut (8) to lock
pressure setting.
SERVICING
1. Open manual drain to expel accumulated liquids. Keep
liquids below baffle (49).
2. Clean or replace filter element when dirty.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Filter/regulator can be disassembled without removal
from air line.
2. Shut off inlet pressure. Reduce pressure in inlet and
outlet lines to zero.
3. Turn adjustment (1 or 7) fully counterclockwise.
4. Remove bowl - push into body and turn
counterclockwise.
5. Disassemble in general accordance with the item
numbers on exploded view. Do not remove the drains
unless replacement is necessary. Remove and replace
drains only if they malfunction.
CLEANING
1. Clean plastic bowl (25, 35) with warm water only. Clean
other parts with warm water and soap.
2. Rinse and dry parts. Blow out internal passages in body
(16) with clean, dry compressed air. Blow air through
filter element (50) from inside to outside to remove
surface contaminants.
3. Inspect parts. Replace those found to be damaged.
Replace plastic bowl with a metal bowl if plastic bowl
shows signs of cracking or cloudiness.
ASSEMBLY
1. Lubricate the following items with o-ring grease.
4 (Thrust washer) - outer circumference and both sides.
5, 7 (Adjusting screw) - threads and tip.
18, 28, 37 (Manual drain body) - the portion of the
body that contacts the bowl, and the hole that
accommodates the stem of drain valve (19, 29, 38).
53 (Valve) - stem.
26, 34, 47, 54 (O-rings)
2. Assemble the unit as shown on the exploded view. Push
bowl, or bowl with guard, into body and turn fully
clockwise.

Installation & Maintenance
Instructions
CAUTION
Water vapor will pass through these units and could
condense into liquid form downstream as air temperature
drops. Install an air dryer if water condensation could have
a detrimental effect on the application.
WARNING
These products are intended for use in industrial
compressed air systems only. Do not use these products
where pressures and temperatures can exceed those listed
under Technical Data.
Polycarbonate plastic bowls can be damaged and
possibly burst if exposed to such substances as certain
solvents, strong alkalies, compressor oils containing esterbased additives or synthetic oils. Fumes of these
substances in contact with the polycarbonate bowl,
externally or internally, can also result in damage. Clean
with warm water only.
Use metal bowl in applications where a plastic bowl
might be exposed to substances that are incompatible with
polycarbonate.
If outlet pressure in excess of the filter/regulator
pressure setting could cause downstream equipment to
rupture or malfunction, install a pressure relief device
downstream of the filter/regulator. The relief pressure and
flow capacity of the relief device must satisfy system
requirements.
The accuracy of the indication of pressure gauges can
change, both during shipment (despite care in packaging)
and during the service life. If a pressure gauge is to be
used with these products and if inaccurate indications may
be hazardous to personnel or property, the gauge should be
calibrated before initial installation and at regular intervals
during use.
Before using these products with fluids other than air,
for non industrial applications, or for life-support systems
consult Norgren.
