Introduction
Actuator for the operation of final control elements
with preferably linear movement. The thrust rod
transfers the force directly to the final control
element.
A continuous electronic unit controls the actuators.
The special electronic unit serves as the interface
between actuator and control system.

… 1 Safety
Intended use
Control actuators are used exclusively for operating final control
elements (valves, valve flaps, etc.).
They may only be operated using a suited Contrac electronic unit
for field installation or mounting rack installation.
In addition to this operating instruction, the relevant
documentation for the electronic unit and software tool must be
observed.
Improper use
The following are considered to be instances of improper use of
the device:
• For use as a climbing aid, for example for mounting
purposes.
• For use as a bracket for external loads, for example as a
support for piping, etc.
• Material application, for example by painting over the
housing, name plate or welding/soldering on parts.
• Material removal, for example by spot drilling the
housing.
Notes on data safety
This product is designed to be connected to and to
communicate information and data via a network interface.
It is operator’s sole responsibility to provide and continuously
ensure a secure connection between the product and your
network or any other network (as the case may be).
Operator shall establish and maintain any appropriate measures
(such as but not limited to the installation of firewalls,
application of authentication measures, encryption of data,
installation of anti-virus programs, etc.) to protect the product,
the network, its system and the interface against any kind of
security breaches, unauthorized access, interference, intrusion,
leakage and / or theft of data or information.
ABB Automation Products GmbH and its affiliates are not liable
for damages and / or losses related to such security breaches,
any unauthorized access, interference, intrusion, leakage and /
or theft of data or information.
Warranty provisions
Using the device in a manner that does not fall within the scope
of its intended use, disregarding this manual, using
underqualified personnel, or making unauthorized alterations
releases the manufacturer from liability for any resulting
damage. This renders the manufacturer's warranty null and void.

Principle of operation
Actuator for the operation of final control elements with
preferably linear movement. The thrust rod transfers the force
directly to the final control element.
A special electronic unit controls the actuators. The special
electronic unit serves as the interface between actuator and
control system.
During continuous positioning, the electronic unit varies the
motor torque steplessly until the actuator force and the control
valve force are balanced. High response sensitivity and high
positioning accuracy with short positioning time ensure an
excellent control quality and a long actuator life.

4Transport and storage
Inspection
Check the devices immediately after unpacking for possible
damage that may have occurred from improper transport.
Details of any damage that has occurred in transit must be
recorded on the transport documents.
All claims for damages must be submitted to the shipper
without delay and before installation.
Transporting the device
Safety instructions
DANGE
R
Danger to life due to falling or toppling loads.
Risk of death or serious injury due to the device falling down
or toppling over!
• Standing under suspended loads is prohibited.
• Do not detach the hoisting equipment until installation is
complete.
• Only use the dedicated load pick-up devices (eyebolts) for
suspending the components.
Consider the following items during transport:
• Pay attention to the device weight details.
• Do not expose the device to humidity during transport.
Pack the device accordingly.
• Pay attention to the permissible transportation
temperatures for the device.
Returning devices
For the return of devices, follow the instructions in Repair on
page 35.
Storing the device
Note
The storage data provided below assumes that the devices are
fully closed and thus comply with the IP rating stated in the
specification.
When devices are supplied, their IP rating is guaranteed. If the
devices have been tested or commissioned, the IP rating needs
to be guaranteed before they are put into storage.
The devices may be stored under moist and corrosive conditions
for a short time. The equipment is protected against external
corrosive influences. However, direct exposure to rain, snow,
etc., must be avoided.
The permissible storage and transport temperatures must be
observed.
Devices equipped with a heater are also protected by desiccant,
which is placed in the following locations where condensation
may be a problem:
Position sensor: In connection chamber
Electronic unit In electrical connection chamber
The desiccant guarantees sufficient protection for
approximately 150 days. It can be regenerated at a temperature
of 90 °C (114 °F) within 4 h.
Remove the desiccant prior to commissioning the actuator or
the electronics.
If you intend to store or transport the device for a prolonged
period (> 6 months), we recommend that you wrap it in plastic
film and add desiccant.
Protect uncovered metallic surfaces with an appropriate long-
term corrosion inhibitor.
The relevant long-term storage temperatures must be observed.
