4. Installation instructions
4.1 Pre-installation
Verify that the nameplate of the limit switch box match the specifications needed –correct model
number, voltage and enclosure type - before installation and use.
Wiring connections should be in accordance with the diagram attached to the inside of the
top casing cover.
The two conduit cable entries shall be sealed in a proper manner until cable works is
finalized.
Position indicator and switch box covers are sealed by use of o-rings. Please take care of o-
ring in order not to cause any damage to the o-rings during disassembly or reassembly.
The position of the limit switches / cams have not been adjusted at the factory. Therefore a
final adjustment of those is needed before use.
Do not use in areas where explosion proof equipment is required. These types of limit
switches are designed as weatherproof types –not explosion proof types.

Note:
Prior to mounting of the limit switch box the item must be checked for any
damage
Damaged parts must be replaced by original spare parts
Mounting is most easily done with the actuator shaft pointing vertically upwards. But mounting is
also possible in any other position.
The limit switch box may be mounted in any position.
It is mandatory that the limit switch box is firmly secured t a sturdy mounting bracket High tensile
bolts or studs with spring locking washers must be used.
The limit switch box output shaft must be in line with the actuator shaft to avoid side-loading the
shaft. To avoid any backlash no flexibility in the mounting bracket or mounting should be allowed.
Caution: Make sure to cut off the electrical power before working on the limit switch box for
assembly, mounting etc.
4.3 Fitting the mounting bracket
Two types of standard DVC mounting brackets are available
NAMUR VDE/VDI 3845 size 30x80
NAMUR VDE/VDI 3845 size 30x130
Fixed mounting bracket on top of actuator
The mounting bracket is fixed onto the top of the actuator by use of correctly sized high tensile
bolts and spring washers.

Insert the shaft of the limit switch box correctly into the drive slot on the top of the actuator drive
shaft –use correctly sized high tensile bolts and spring washers for fastening the box to the bracket.
4.4 Adjustment of the limit switch box
By use of screw driver loosen the captive bolt on the cover and lift off top cover.
Each switch has its own independent cam arrangement. Follow the procedures bellow for
adjustment.
4.4.1 Open cam setting
Lift the bottom cam up and turn it until the switch is activated (clicks) –then release the cam.
The spring will force the cam back into the splines on the shaft ensuring the correct position
of the cam.
Lift up and release

4.4.2 Closed cam setting
Push the top cam down and turn it until the switch is activated (clicks) –the release the cam.
The spring will force the cam back into the splines on the shaft ensuring the correct position
of the cam.
Push down and release
NOTE: It should be kept in mind that an incorrect setting of the cam position may/will
result in incorrect signaling to external control systems.
4.4.3 Checking the switch cam setting
Operate the actuator from full open to full closed in both directions several times to check
that the switch cams are operating correctly –preferably with a detection of the output
signal from the limit switches (if possible)
4.4.4 Wiring
The correct wiring diagram is attached onto the inside of the top casing cover. Please follow
the instructions carefully. If in doubt –please contact DVC.

Important: Earth wire cable shall be use in bicolor combination green/yellow
4.4.5 Reassembly of limit switch box
Carefully mount the top cover onto the bottom part of the casing –taking care not to
damage the o-ring.
5. Operation instructions
5.1 Electrical connections and preliminary test
WARNING:
Work on the electrical system or equipment must only be carried out by a skilled
electrician himself or by specially instructed personnel under the control and
supervision of such an electrician and in accordance with the applicable electrical
engineering rules
Cable gland or conduit entries shall be controlled by qualified engineers to ensure
correct protection against water damages etc.
Treat limit switch casing top with care. Gap between limit switch box housing parts
may lead to unexpected damages. Do not jam cover during fitting.

6. Maintenance
6.1 Maintenance
Caution:
Turn off all power services before attempting to perform service on the limit switch box.
Before removing or disassembling the limit switch box ensure that the valve or other
actuated device is isolated and not under pressure.
When/if replacing any part use only original DVC spare parts.
All though no real maintenance is necessary on the limit switch box, regular maintenance
checks should, under normal conditions, be carried out with intervals of maximum six
months. But if service conditions are severe more frequent inspections may be advisable.
Ensure limit switch box / actuator alignment
Ensure wiring insulation is intact, connected and terminated properly
Ensure all screws are present and tight
Ensure cleanliness of internal electrical parts / devices
Ensure conduits connections are installed properly and dry
Check enclosure o-ring seals and verify that the o-ring is not pinched between
flange
Visual inspect during open/close cycle
Inspect identification labels for wear and replace if necessary
