Type ball screw linear drives units are offered in different variants, see Table 1. These are
mounted together with electric open/close or modulating actuators, of the series CM, on
valves which require a linear positioning movement. These linear units convert the torque
output from the actuator into an axial force through a ball screw drive. Not only is a higher
control accuracy allowed, but also a longer lifetime is provided with the use of a ball screw
drive. The combination of actuator and linear unit, is based on the required thrust and the
necessary stroke.

Figure 1 shows e.g. a CM-32 actuator with mounted LK100 linear unit. The linear unit
itself consists essentially of a solid cast housing, a mounted spindle nut and a non rotating
spindle, see Figure 2. To prevent contamination by dusty ambient air and to ensure the
mechanical protection, the linear unit is completely sealed with O-Rings at the output.

6Assembly and Disassembly
Section 4: Assembly and Disassembly
Section 4: Assembly and Disassembly of
Linear Units on Valves
In the following two subsections, the procedures for assembly and disassembly of linear
units on valves are explained step by step.
4.1 Security and Assembly Instructions
! WARNING
The device may only be mounted and commissioned by qualied personnel!
Qualied personnel within the meaning of this operating manual are persons who are
familiar, with assembly, commissioning and operation of this product, and have the
required appropriate qualications for this activity.
! WARNING
For assembly and disassembly of the linear unit, the pipes where the valve is installed
on must be depressurized. If the actuator is removed from the linear unit, the position
of the valve stem won’t be xed anymore and will be lost due to the linear units non
self-locking property.
! WARNING
The linear unit has end stops on both end positions. Do not move against the end stops in
electrical operation. The end limits of the actuator must be set accordingly. Never bring
the valve cone with excessive force in the CLOSED position. This can damage the high
quality sealing edges.
