1) GENERAL FEATURES
KSB manufacture a wide range of part turn pneumatic actuators for valve remote control.
The actuators are available on Double Acting “ACTAIR NG” and Spring Return “DYNACTAIR NG” versions.
- The principle of the actuator application is to open and close the connected valve, without the manual
operation with lever or hand wheel, by means of an electric-pneumatic connection on remote control.
The maintenance should be done by KSB trained personnel only.
This instruction manual contains important information regarding the KSB pneumatic actuator operation,
installation, maintenance and storage.
Please read carefully before installation and keep it in a safe place for further reference.
2) WORKING CONDITIONS
a) Construction.
Standard actuators are suitable for indoor and outdoor installation.
The laser marking or a printed label on the actuator body gives the actuator technical characteristics: type, size,
operating pressure, output torque, operating temperature, flange connection, product code and production date.
(See drawing pag.4).
b) Motive energy
The operating media should be dry and filtered compressed air not necessarily lubricated or inert gases
compatible with internal actuator parts and lubricants.
The operating medium shall have a dew point equal to – 20 °C or, to be at least, 10 °C below the ambient
temperature (ISO 8573-1, Class 3).
The maximum particle size shall not exceed 40 μm (ISO 8573-1, Class 5).
In the case of lubrication, the amount of lubricant will not exceed 25 mg/m3(ISO 8573-1, Class 5).
c) Supply operating media pressure.
The maximum supply pressure is 8,4 bar (120 psi)
Nominal supply pressure is 5,6 bar (80 psi)
Working pressure range from 3 bar (43,5 psi ) up to 8,4 bar (120 psi).
d) Operating temperature.
Actuator standard working temperature range: –20°C (-4°F) to 80°C (176°F)
For High temperature range: -20°C (-4°F) to +150°C (302°F) please contact KSB
For low temperature range: -50°C (-58°F) to +60°C (140°F) please contact KSB.
For high humidity and low temperature application are recommended to use a supplementary protection
(e.g. screens, sheds or integral painting) please contact KSB.
e) Operating drive rotation.
The part turn actuator rotation angle is nominally 90°. KSB actuator provides a stroke of 95° rotations, from –4°
to 91°, with standard stroke adjustment of –10°.

make
sure that the air ports
are
vented
-
Do
not

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Theprinciple
of the
actuator application
is to
open and close
the
connected
part turn
valve installed
in aplant,without the
manual
operation,
by
remote control
by
means
of
an electric-pneumatic
connection.
The normal sizing
of
actuators requires
a
20%-30% safety margin over
the
valve breakaway torque
to
handle valves.
Plant
design,
chemical and physical
flow
characteristics and environmental condition
could
increase
the
safety factor
to
apply
to
actuator
sizing.
Before performing any
installation
operation, verify
the
actuator and valve conditions according
to
the
safety notice
above described.
Moreover,
the utmost
clearness
is
required during valve
installation of the air
supply connection
to the
actuator.
All the
connection
parts such as reductions,
joints,
plates, brackets and equipment must be clean and
dirty free.
-Before assembling
the
actuator
ontothe
valve make sure
that both
items are correctly oriented, depending upon which
direction
of rotation isrequired.
-
Before
startingthe
actuator
installation,
should be done
a
visual actuator control
to
verify
its
physical condition
after
transportation and
storage.

-
Supply
the air

positionthe
actuator pistons

-
Unscrew,counter clockwise direction,
both

***Attention
-
Check

the
operation from
the

until the
desired valve closure
position is achieved.
- In
opposite case,
with the

angular travel other than 90°, the endurance shall be agreed between the purchaser and the
manufacturer/supplier.
c) For thermoplastic actuators the minimum number of cycles shall be 250 000.

Disassembly.
Actuator disassembly operation must have done
with the
actuator free from any pneumatic and electric connection and
dismounted
from thevalve.
Verify
that the
actuator
isair
bag free, and
the
spring
return
actuator
is
completely
in its
springs rest
position.
Check
that the
airport 2
and
4
are absolutely
vented.
Use proper
tools only.
A)
Loosen
the
end cap screws
(part
N°
20) in
cross sequence
to
remove
the
end caps
(part n° 3), in
case
of
force
onthe
screws that
means
that the
actuator
isstill
under
airor
spring action and
the
operation should be discontinued
until the
action
is removed.
The end caps contain
a
sealing O-ring
(part
N°
19) onits
seat
that
should be checked before
replacement.

Caution
. The Spring Return end caps
cartridges
(Parts N°
3
+ 18+24+19+23+22+21) are
a
safety device, where
the
preloaded
spring is setto
avoid
the
dangerous spring jumping. Do
not
release
the
screw
(part
N°
21) to
remove
the
spring from
its
seat,
this
operation must be done
byKSB
technician
only.
B)
Hold
the
actuator
in the
vice and
rotatethe
drive shaft
until the
pistons
(part
N°2
)
are released form
the
scotch-yoke
groves (part
N°
5),thenslip off the
pistons from
the
cylinder
(part
N°
1).
Do
not
use compressed
air to
remove
the
pistons
from
the
body,
this
operation could cause personal
injuries.

The dynamic seal
(part
N°
10),
O-ring
(part
N°
12)
and supports
(part
N°
11)
should be checked before
replacement. Do
not
use sharp
toolsto cut the
dynamic seal and O-ring
or
remove
the
supports from
thepiston
as
this
may cause furrows
ormarks.
D)
When
the
components are disassembled, they should be properly cleaned and wear checked
prior to
being greased
and
reassembled.
In
case
the
sealing parts are
too
much worn
out
use new parts from
the
spare parts
kit.
Attention. Due
to KSB
scotch-yoke shaft blow-out security system
the
shaft disassembly operation must be carried
out by
KSB technician
only.

(part
N°

D)
Grease
the
internal cylinder surface
(part
N°
1).
E)
Position
the
scotch-yoke shaft
(part
N°
5) in
order
to
have
the
groves
in positionfor the
pistons insertion and
the right shaft
required direction
of rotation.
F)
Insert
the
pistons
(part
N°2
),
using
a
proper conical
tool (
see

drawing
), in the
scotch-yoke grooves
(part
N°

and
press
simultaneously
thetwo
pistons inside
of the
