and the transport of dangerous goods.
2.2 Intended use
The product is intended to actuate process valves, such as ball valves and butter-
fly valves with a rotation angle from 0° (valve closed) to 180° (depending on the
version).
NOTICE!
The operating torque of the drive must not be greater than the maximum permiss-
ible torque listed in ISO5211 in relation to the size of the mounting flange and of
the coupling.

Fig. 1 Product structure (DFPD-2300 as an example)
A shaft projects outward through the housing on both sides. It transmits the reac-
tion torque to a process valve and, if applicable, a limit switch or position sensor.
The end stops can be adjusted in the range of ±5° using the end-position adjust-
ment on both sides 6.
5.2 Function
The piston movement of the semi-rotary drive is converted into a swivel motion of
the transmission shaft by Rack & Pinion kinematics (gear rack pinion).

7 Mounting and installation
7.1 Assembly without adapter bridge
1Semi-rotary drive
2Process valve
Fig. 4 Assembly without adapter bridge
1. Prepare process valve.
Adjust the control shaft of the process valve to implement the desired operat-
ing method for opening and closing.
2. Place the semi-rotary drive on the control shaft of the process valve. The con-
trol shaft must sit in the coupling of the semi-rotary drive (è Fig.1, 8)
without tilting.
3. Mount the semi-rotary drive on the connecting flange of the process valve
using 4 corrosion-resistant screws, retaining rings and nuts (material: CI).
4. Tighten the screws crosswise è Tab. 12 Tightening torques for flange.
7.2 Assembly with adapter bridge
1Semi-rotary drive
2Adapter bridge
3Coupling
4Process valve
Fig. 5 Assembly with adapter bridge
1. Have adapter bridge and coupling ready èwww.festo.com/catalogue.
2. Mount the adapter bridge 2 on the semi-rotary drive.
– Align studs of the adapter bridge lengthwise to the drive.
– Align open side of the adapter bridge with the process valve.
– Do not jam the centring ring in the drilled hole for the adapter bridge.
– Screw in the screws but do not tighten them yet.
3. Prepare process valve.
Adjust the control shaft of the process valve to implement the desired operat-
ing method for opening and closing.
4. Insert the coupling 3. The square of the coupling must sit in the coupling of
the semi-rotary drive without tilting (è Fig.1, 8).
5. Place the semi-rotary drive with adapter bridge and coupling on the control
shaft of the process valve. The square of the process valve must sit in the
coupling without tilting.
6. Mount the adapter bridge on the connecting flange of the process valve using
4 corrosion-resistant screws, retaining rings and nuts (material: VA).
7. Tighten the screws at both the drive and process valve crosswise
è Tab. 12 Tightening torques for flange.
7.3 Pneumatic port
Single-acting semi-rotary drive
1. Prevent corrosive atmosphere in the spring space. If there is a corrosive atmo-
sphere, use a rebreather block.
2. Mount a filter element on the exhaust port 4 (A) to prevent ingress of dirt.

8 Commissioning
Requirements
– The drive is fully mounted and connected.
Commissioning the drive
1. Pressurise drive slowly.
2. Check correct function at low travel speed.
– Direction of rotation of drive
– Position of process valve
9 Maintenance
9.1 General
– Low Demand Mode:
When used as intended, the product is maintenance-free.
– High Demand Mode DFPD-...-T4
Grease the product again after 20,000 switching cycles.
– High Demand Mode DFPD-...-T6
For safety-oriented applications, replace consumable parts after max. 20,000
switching cycles.
9.2 Proof test (Proof Test)
The proof test consists of a Full Stroke test of the drive. Here, the complete rota-
tion of the shaft is checked at the connection to the process valve dependent on
the switching position of the control valve. The switching position of the shaft can
be determined visually (position of the shaft groove), using a position sensor or
using another suitable auxiliary means.
• Perform the proof test at least once in every 3 years.
During the proof test, the safety of the application must be ensured.
1. Trigger rotation of the shaft at the control valve.
2. Measure the time until the semi-rotary drive has performed a complete rota-
tion of the shaft.
ÄThe test is successful if the semi-rotary drive completes the movement
within the switching time intended for control by the control valve.
3. Check the drive externally (visual inspection).
ÄThe test is successful if no defect, leakage, or contamination is detected.
4. Document test results.
