1SAFETY
This device complies with current applicable safety standards.
Installation, maintenance,and use of this unit require a skilled and
trained staff.
Please carefully read this whole document before mounting and
starting-up the actuator.
2DELIVERY,STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE
2.1 Delivery
AQ actuatorsare delivered in a cardboard box of a size equivalent to
the actuator and sit in a cardboard wedge.
2.1.1 Check identification sticker
Information on the nameplate sticker on the side of the actuator
should match those on your order.
QR Code on this sticker can be used to identify the actuator.
2.2 Storage
Actuators should be stored under a shelter, in a clean and dry place
and protected from wide temperature variations.

•Avoid placing the actuator directly on the floor
•Check that plugs of cable entries are correctly tightened
•Check that cover screws are correctly tightened to ensure
weatherproof sealing of the cover
AQ actuator includes electrical components and lubricated gear
stages. Even with a weatherproof enclosure, oxidation, seizing and
other alterations may occur if actuator is not correctly stored.
What to check after storage
1. Visually check the electrical equipment.
2. Manually operate buttons, selectors, etc., to ensure their
proper mechanical functionality.
3. Manually operate the actuator.

What to check on pre-installed actuators
If you expect a long period between actuator mounting and electrical
wiring:
4. Visually check that cable entries and cover are tightly closed.
5. In case of outdoor installation, cover the unit with a plastic
protective film.
Actuators equipped with electronic components
Long term storage of electronic components which are not in service
increases the malfunction risk. This is not advisable.
If a long term storage is absolutely necessary, we strongly
recommend a revision of the electronic boards in our factory before
actuator usage.
2.3 Maintenance
This actuator features lifetime lubrication. While the device is
correctly mounted and sealed, no specific maintenance is required.
Test motor operation once a year and make sure that electrical
compartment is free from condensation.
If it operates in a wet atmosphere, this actuator includes an anti-
condensation heater to avoid condensation build-up.

3ACTUATOR INSTALLATION
3.1 Fastening actuator on the valve
Actuator should be secured directly to the
valve using proper bolts or via a proper
interface.
After assembly, the actuator can operate in
any position.

You can modify your display orientation in order to keep normal
reading orientation.
To set your display orientation, see §0.

However:
•do not handle the actuator by handwheel to avoid damage on
actuator gearing
•cable glands must
not be oriented upwards (loss of water
tightness)
3.2 Opening the control compartment
You need to open the control compartment and remove the cover in
order to wire actuator. If closing direction is not standard (clockwise),
and it is not already done, change the orientation of the position
indicator cap.
How to remove the cover
1. With 10mm angled socket
wrench or flat blade
screwdriver, untighten the 4
screws.
2. Raise the cover then unplug it
from the board.

3.2.1 Changing closing direction indication
As a standard, AQ actuator is configured to close clockwise. If the
actuator must close counter-clockwise, you can change the
orientation of the position indicator cap.

This change requires to have the actuator software set
accordingly.

To proceed to this setting, see §5.2.
Standard indicator orientation
for clockwise closing
Reverse indicator orientation
for counter-clockwise closing
How to change cap orientation
1. Disassemble the cover then the
cap.
2. Turn the cap 90°.
3. Reassemble the cap then the
cover.

5–Power supply board
6-Torque limiter
7–Capacitor (single phase only)
8–Motor
9–Control terminal block
10 –Power terminal block
Control panel board is attached on the actuator cover.
3.3.2 Connection and preliminary tests
First install cable glands, then connect wires on the terminal blocks.
!Ensure wires are not supplied with electric power before wiring is
finished and the control compartment is closed.
If you need to open control compartment, previously cut off power
supply to the actuator.

How to install cable glands
For each cable entry used
1. Remove plug from the cable entrywith 19mm (M16 entry)
or 23mm (M20 entry) open-
end wrench.
2. Separate sealing nut from
its cable gland.
3. Screw and tighten cable
gland in the cable entry.
4. Thread the sealing nut on
the cable and pass the
cable through the cable
gland.
Terminal blocks
Terminal blocks are located on a
side of the electronic assembly
and
consists of screwed
terminals. There are 2 main
blocks: 1st is to connect power
supply, 2nd to connect command
and signaling.
Control terminals are 1-35 & 2-36
Power terminals (3Ph/1Ph)
•3Ph: L1, L2, L3 with phase
correction
•1Ph: L (Live), N (Neutral)
Both thermal protector and torque limit device must be integrated
into your control system in order to prevent potential damage to the
actuator or valve.

Unused entries must be kept closed by their plug.
