                   Installation

Pressure control

The Remote Control Twin Power Actuator is designed for 

a normal working pressure of 7 bar (100 psi), but it can be 

satisfactorily operated between 4-8 bar (60-140 psi). The 

supply air shall be dust and oil free. The air dew point shall 

be -20 °C or 10 °C below the ambient temperature. The 

maximum particle size must not exceed 40 μm.

The Twin Power actuator specified torque is direct 

depending on the air supply pressure. In order to pro

-

duce a constant power output from the motor, an even 

air pressure is required. The starting torque of the Twin 

Power is approx. 50 % higher than the tightening torque. 

If the tightening of the valve takes place at an air pressure 

of 6 bar and the air pressure at opening is 5 bar, gives a 

decreasing of the starting torque at a given relation to the 

decreasing air pressure. If the air supply pressure fluctu

-

ates, a constant pressure regulator should be fitted in the 

system. The regulator should be set so it gives a pressure 

output equivalent to the lowest incoming pressure.

Oil mist lubrication

To increase the reliability of the Twin Power actuator, an oil 

mist lubricator should be fitted as close as possible to the 

actuator. For lubrication of the diaphragm motor, control 

valve, and the moving parts of the operating cylinder, 

an oil mist unit should be fitted not more than one meter 

under the Twin Power actuator. At pneumatic operation 

where the distance between the actuator and control panel 

sideways and at falling pipe exceeding 10 meters, an oil 

mist lubricator shall be fitted on the air supply pipe for 

clockwise operation. The oil mist lubricator should be filled 

with low viscosity oil. The guideline value for adjustment 

of the oil mist lubricator is 1-2 drops/minute. Before the air 

pipes connects to the actuator they should be cleaned by 

air, so that no particles will cause operational disturbance. 

To entirely avoid this risk an air cleaner can be fitted.

By new installations all of the air supply pipes shall 

carefully be cleaned by air before connection to the 

actuator and accessories. 

WARNING!

Indicator bridge

Risk for injuries caused by crushing/squeezing and 

electrical shocks when the actuator is energized by air 

pressure and electricity with its cover off. Before open

-

ing, check that the compressed air and possible power 

supply are disconnected. The cover should be mounted 

when the actuator operates.

WARNING!

1. 

Remove the cover.

2.  Disconnect the top part of the terminal block, see 

figure 1.

3. 

Pull the cable through the cable gland and connect 

according to desired wiring diagram.

4.  Reconnect the terminal block. Make sure no cables 

are close to any moving parts in the actuator.

5. 

Put the cover back and tighten the screws.

6.  Connect the actuator pneumatically and electrically.

7. 

Verify the function of the actuator.

Before testing of the actuator:

Remove the two plastic caps that covers the breathing and 

exhaust hole on the air motor.

                  Operating

Check that the connection for incoming air supplies is cor

-

rect when the actuator operates with auxiliary valves, e.g. 

solenoid valves.

When choosing auxiliary valve, i.e. pneumatic 3-way 

valves, solenoid valves or hand operated valves, shall 

these always be vented after completed operation. 

When changing operation direction, the air pipe be-

tween the auxiliary valve and operating unit must be 

vented before a new operation starts.

When manually operating with 3-way solenoid valves, 

these shall be operated with 3-position switches with neu-

tral centricity. If other equipment is used, the same func

-

tion shall be obtained. At momentary impulse changes, i.e. 

when the rotation direction must be changed rapidly, it is 

recommended to use the connection according to alterna

-
