Motorized Two-Way Valve with Flanged-End Connection
<4-20 mA DC Input with 4-20 mA DC Feedback Output>
(JIS 10K-FC200, -SCS13A)
 Overview
ACTIVAL Model VY519_J is a series of motorized two-way
valves with flanged-end connection. The valve and actuator
are integrated in a single unit.
Valve size ranges from DN15 (1/2”) to DN80 (3”), and valve
body rating corresponds to JIS 10K.
The actuator has a reversible synchronous motor, which
operates at a low voltage of 24 V AC.
4-20 mA DC input control signal provides proportional control
in combination with a PLC (e.g., Model R35/R36).
 Notes
JIS: Japanese Industrial Standards
PLC: Programmable Logic Controller
 Features
 Compact and lightweight:
Rotary motor actualizes small body and light weight.
 Valve and actuator integrated in a single unit:
Pre-assembled body requires no adjustment.
 Valve for water/steam control applicable to high
differential pressure, large Cv value, high rangeability,
and low leakage.
 Durable actuator with low power consumption.
 Equal percentage flow characteristics.
 4-20 mA DC output available for position feedback.
 Open/close changeover for input signal failure:
Actuator fully opens/closes valve in case that the control
signal is not input to the actuator. (Default: Fully open)
 Direction changeover of control action:
Open/close action by 4-20 mA DC input signal is
reversely controllable.
Normal action 4 mA: 0 % to 20 mA: 100 %
Reverse action 20 mA: 0 % to 4 mA: 100 %.
(Default: Normal action)
 Adjustable dead band*:
Dead band width can be narrowed to more precisely
operate valve actuator.
 Actuator is not operated by input signal changed less than a
certain amount. This amount of change is called dead band.
IMPORTANT:
 The service life of ACTIVAL operated with small
dead band can be shortened since the ACTIVAL
operates more frequently with small dead band
than with normal dead band.
 Use shielded cable for the ACTIVAL with small
dead band. Noise may affect the signal
transmission causing operation error, otherwise.
 To control ACTIVAL with a third-party controller,
please consult with Azbil Corporation’s sales
personnel.

 Setting
On the PCB (printed circuit board) of the actuator, the selector switches are provided.
 CAUTION
  Disconnect power from ACTIVAL before performing any wiring, maintenance (installation), and setting the selector
switches to prevent equipment damages.
  Set the selector switches using a pen nib or fingers. Do not use a tool such as a screwdriver. Such a tool can
damage the selector switches or the PCB.
  Always close the top cover and the terminal cover except when setting the selector switches and connecting/
disconnecting wires.
  To operate the ACTIVAL with small dead band, provide shielded cable for input/output signal lines and the power
line. Unshielded cable can cause error due to noise.
IMPORTANT:
The service life of ACTIVAL operated with small dead band can be shortened since the ACTIVAL operates
more frequently with small dead band than with normal dead band.
 Identification of the selector switches
Figure 4. Selector switches
Open/close selector switch for input signal failure:
If no control signal is input, the actuator automatically closes (0 %) or opens (100 %) the valve by setting the selector switch at
‘open’ (100 %) or ‘close’ (0 %).
Direction selector switch for control action of 4-20 mA input signal:
Direction of control action by 4-20 mA DC input signal can be reversely switched.
Normal action: 4 mA for 0 % to 20 mA for 100 %
Reverse action: 20 mA for 0 % to 4 mA for 100 %
Normal/small selector switch for dead band width:
To more precisely operate the valve, smaller dead band (than the normal) of the control signal input can be set. Two selector
switches are provided for the normal/small dead band width. Always set the both switches at the same mode (‘normal’ or
‘small’).
To swi‚”ch dead band,
change bo‚”h selec‚”or

 Installation
 Precautions for installation
 CAUTION
  Disconnect power from ACTIVAL before performing any wiring, maintenance (installation), and setting the selector
switches to prevent equipment damage.
  Install the ACTIVAL in the position as specified in this manual. Excessively tight connection of piping and improper
installation position may damage the valve.
  After piping installation, make sure no fluid leaks from the connecting parts. Incorrect piping may cause fluid
leakage.
  Do not allow any foreign substance inside the piping. Flush the piping so that no foreign substance remains.
Foreign substance may damage the valve.
 ACTIVAL Model VY519_J is the valve and actuator integrated into a single unit. Do not combine the valve with any other
actuator, or do not combine the actuator with any other valve.
 To remove foreign substances inside the pipes, install a strainer with 40 or more meshes (80 or more meshes
recommended for a steam control) on the inflow side of each valve. In case that the strainers cannot be installed on the
inflow side of each valve, install it on the pipe diverting sections (sections diverting from main piping system to sub piping
system).
 Install the valve so that the flow direction of process fluid agrees with the arrow indicated on the valve body.
 Installation location
 CAUTION
  Avoid using the ACTIVAL in an atmosphere containing oxidizing or explosive gas since it may corrode the actuator,
valve, or their components.
  The actuator may malfunction if being exposed to high heat radiation. Do not install it near by steam coil or hot
water (in high temperature) coil.
IMPORTANT:
 The covers might be corroded by some chemical and organic solvent/vapor. Do not clean the ACTIVAL using
such substances, or do not expose the ACTIVAL to such substances.
 When the ACTIVAL is used for steam humidifying, install a valve interlocking with air-conditioning unit on the
inflow side in case the ACTIVAL gets damaged.
 Although the ACTIVAL can be used in high humidity environments (max. 95 %RH), do not immerse the
actuator in water.
 Although the ACTIVAL can also be used outdoors, be sure not to expose the ACTIVAL to direct sunlight.
 Install the ACTIVAL in a position allowing easy access for maintenance and inspection. Figs. 1 and 2 show the minimum
clearance for maintenance and inspection. When installing the ACTIVAL in a ceiling space, provide an access hole within
the 50 cm radius of the ACTIVAL. And, place a drain pan under the valve.
 Do not mount the ACTIVAL on a pipe where water hammer occurs, or where solid objects including slug may accumulate.
 To set the selector switches after installation, leave a enough clearance above the top cover of the actuator, as shown in
Figs. 1 and 2.
 Mounting position
The ACTIVAL can be mounted in any position ranging from upright to sideways (90 tilted). The ACTIVAL should be installed
with its actuator vertically positioned above the valve body. (See Fig. 5.) However, the ACTIVAL must be installed always in
upright position outdoors.

 Piping
 Check that the model number of the product is what you ordered. The model number is shown on the label attached to the
yoke.
 Install a bypass pipe and gate valves on the inflow, outflow, and bypass sides. Also, install a strainer on the inflow side.
 When installing the ACTIVAL to the pipes, do not allow any object, such as chips, to get inside a pipe or valve. Valve cannot
fully closes, or the valve seat may get damaged causing fluid leakage, due to an object jammed inside the valve.
 When piping, do not apply too much sealing material, such as solidifying liquid and tape, to the pipe connection sections so
that these materials flow into the valve. Valve cannot fully closes, or the valve seat may get damaged causing fluid leakage,
due to the sealing material jammed inside the valve.
 Before activating the ACTIVAL, flush the pipes (with the ACTIVAL installed) at the maximum flow rate to remove all the
foreign substances. Fully open (100 % position) the ACTIVAL to flush. (Factory preset position: 100 %)
 For steam control, drain retained water (condensate) in piping. Install a trap on a pipe run which may retain condensate.
Condensate may cause water hummer or damage the valve and piping.
 Heat insulation
Do not apply heat insulation to the actuator or to the yoke, as shows in Fig. 3. If the yoke and the actuator are covered
with insulation material, the pointer cannot be checked and may be distorted.
 Factory preset position
The actuator shaft is positioned at 100% (in fully open position) for shipment. The shaft is thus completely turned clockwise, and
the pointer points at ‘100’. (See Fig. 6.)
Figure 6. Pointer position for shipment
 Manually opening/closing the ACTIVAL
IMPORTANT:
 Manually opening/closing the ACTIVAL with the power (24 V AC) applied may damage the actuator.
 To manually open/close the ACTIVAL, do not turn the joint beyond the fully open (100)/closed (0) mark.
 To manually open/close the ACTIVAL, slowly turn the joint. If shock is sent to the actuator, the actuator may
get damaged.
Disconnect the power from the ACTIVAL before manually operating the ACTIVAL. As shown in Fig. 7, from the front of the
ACTIVAL, hold the joint using a tool such as a wrench, and turn the joint slowly toward the set position.

 Auxiliary switch / Auxiliary potentiometer (optional)
IMPORTANT:
 The auxiliary switch/potentiometer is installed on site. Refer to the instructions supplied with the auxiliary
switch/potentiometer for installation.
 Do not open the top cover except when adjusting the auxiliary switch/potentiometer. Close the top cover
instantly after adjusting the auxiliary switch/potentiometer.
 Do not put any load on the top cover.
 Procedure to change the actuator mounting position
IMPORTANT:
 Do not change the combination of the valve, yoke, and actuator.
 Set the ACTIVAL in 100 % position when changing the mounting position. If the valve in 0 % position is
assembled with the actuator in 100 % position, the actuator put torque on the closed valve, and the gear of the
actuator gets damaged.
1) Remove the screws connecting the actuator and the yoke. Lift the actuator and detach it from the yoke. Make sure that the
groove on the top of the valve stem is parallel to the pipes (indicating the valve in 100 % position). <Step 1 in Fig. 8>
2) Remove the screws connecting the yoke and the valve. <Step 2 in Fig. 8>
3) Change the facing direction of the yoke. The yoke and actuator can be horizontally rotated every 90 (0/90/180/270
from the factory preset position) to mount onto the valve.
4) A thermal insulation sheet is inserted between the yoke and the valve. When changing the mounting positions, reinsert the
sheet and then fit the yoke into the new mounting position.
5) Before fixing the yoke to the valve with the screws, check that the actuator engages correctly with the valve stem (at the new
mounting position). Check that the pointer of the actuator indicates 100 % position as well. Then, fix the yoke to the valve.
<Step 3 in Fig. 8>
6) Mount the actuator. Place the actuator, with its facing direction changed, on the yoke, and fix them with the screws.
<Step 4 in Fig. 8>
7) Check that the ACTIVAL with the mounting position changed operates smoothly (from 0 % to 100 %).

Incorrect wiring may result in PCB (print circuit board) burnout.
 To prevent damage, cover the terminals except when connecting/disconnecting wires.
 Do not connect 24 V AC power to the terminals 4 to 7.
 Wiring precautions
1) To lead the wires into the terminals, cut out a knockout hole for a wiring port. Two knockout holes are provided on the
bilateral sides of the actuator terminals. Select a knockout hole according to the conduit mounting direction, and cut it out by
lightly knocking the hole using a screwdriver.
Figure 9. Knockout hole for wiring port
2) Unscrew the 3 setscrews (M4  10) of the terminal cover and remove the terminal cover, as shown in Fig. 10.
Figure 10. Terminal cover removal
3) Correctly connect the wires to the terminals with M3.5 screw terminal lugs, referring to Figs 11 to 13.
4) When the ACTIVAL is used in a high-humidity environment or outdoors, use a water-proof connector for the wiring port.
 To keep IP54 protection (dust-proof and splash-proof),
Use a water-proof connector for the ACTIVAL in a high-humidity environment or outdoor location.
 Be sure to completely close the terminal cover and the top cover.
 Waterproof the wiring port.
- For cable connection, use a water-proof connector. (Seal connector Part No. 83104346-003 is recommended.)
- For conduit connection, use a water-proof plica tube or the like.

Notes:
 Input impedance of the actuator is 100 .
 For connecting multiple ACTIVAL to one controller (e.g., Model R35.36), provide a transformer (two in total) for each ACTIVAL
since 4-20 mA input is not isolated from other terminals.
 Terminals 2, 5, and 7 are connected inside the actuator. To connect to a device (PLC, position indicator, etc.) with its terminals not isolated
inside, externally isolate (between the ACTIVAL and the device). Otherwise, a loop is formed for the common line and can damage the
circuit of the ACTIVAL. (R series controllers including Model R35/R36 shown in Figs. 12 and 13 are isolated inside.)
 Isolation transformer is required for ACTIVAL. Transformer without isolation may damage the ACTIVAL and other devices connected to
ACTIVAL.

 Inspection and Maintenance
 CAUTION
  Avoid touching the installed ACTIVAL (valve body, yoke, joint). When being used to control hot water, it reaches
high temperature and may cause burn injury.
 Inspect the ACTIVAL according to Table 1.
 Manually open/close the ACTIVAL at least once a month if it is left in inactive state for a long period.
 Visually inspect the fluid leakage of the valve and the actuator operations every six months. If any of the problems
described in Table 2 are found, take corresponding actions shown in the table.
If your problem is not solved by the corresponding action, please contact Azbil Corporation near you.
