The actuator type FlowCon FN.0.3 is an elec-
trical actuator supplied with a valve adaptor for
easy installation.
Fitting and
orientation of the actuator
Separate valve adaptor from actuator (figure 2)
by pressing the green release button and 
turning the top part of the actuator 30° counter
clockwise. Then remove the top part of the ac-
tuator from the valve adaptor.
Rotate the black knob on the valve adaptor
counter clockwise (figure 3) so that the valve
adaptor stem and the green indicators are in top
position. Mount the valve adaptor on the in-
sert (which must already be installed in the valve
body) and finger tighten the connection union.
Do not use additional tools.
Never install the valve adaptor in closed po-
sition as this may damage the insert.
The piping network can now be tested if necessary
by manually adjusting the valve adaptor knob.
WARNING: Do not force the knob in either
direction and never adjust the black knob
on the valve adaptor with a higher torque
than 1 Nm.
Then place the actuator on the valve adaptor
and turn clockwise 30°, until a “click” is heard.
Please do not mount the actuator more than 90°
from vertical (figure 4).

Lift the silicone cap on the back of the actuator to
get access to the dip switches (figure 9).
Dip switch no. 1- Rotation direction:
OFF - Normally open.

Removing actuator / Manual override
operation
To disengage the actuator or perform manual
override, please turn off the power supply and
press the release button while turning the top
part of the actuator counter clockwise 30° (figure
2, previous page).
The piping network can now be tested if neces-
sary by manually adjusting the valve adaptor
knob.
IMPORTANT: FlowCon FN.0.3 actuator and
FN.0.3 valve adaptor are not custom made
as a pair from the supplier, which means that
a FN.0.3 actuator can be used with any FN
valve adaptor with green indicators. Using
other models of valve adaptors may cause
valve damage.
Warranty obligation
