4. Transport and Storage
•GE quarter turn electric actuators are packed in sturdy packing. During
transport measures should be adopted in order to prevent impacts, hits.
•Actuators must be stored in a clean, cool and dry area.
•The unit shall be stored with the cover installed and the conduit openings
sealed with PTFE tape.
•Storage must be off the floor, covered with a sealed dust protector.
While commissioning, Genebre, S.A. recommend a visual inspection in order to
detect any anomaly caused during the transport, handling or during the
storage.
5. Pre-Installation Inspection
•Verify the actuators nameplate to insure correct model number, torque, operating
speed, options and special components, voltage and enclosure type before
installation or use.
•It is important to verify that the output torque of the actuator is appropriate for the
torque requirements of the valve and that the actuator duty cycle is appropriate for
the intended application.
•If there is any discrepancy, please contact with your local distributor, or Genebre,
S.A., to solve that discrepancy. Once the electric actuator has been set up,
Genebre, S.A. decline any responsibility related to discrepancies
As electric device, during electrical operation certain parts inevitably carry
lethal voltages and currents (ELECTRICAL RISKS). Work on the electrical
system or equipment must only be carried out by a skilled electrician himself or
by specially instructed personnel, in accordance with the applicable electrical
engineering rules, health and safety Directives and any other national legislation
applicable.
Under no circumstances should any modification or alteration be carried out
on the actuator as this could very well invalidate the conditions which the
device was designed.

6. Actuator Mounting
•Do not lift the actuator by the hand wheel. Do not attach to the hand wheel
ropes or hooks to lift by hoist.
•The actuator may be mounted in any position-
•The GE quarter turn electric actuator Series are supplied with a female drive
output ISO5211. Bolt patterns are provided for actuator mounting.
•It is mandatory that the actuator be firmly secured to a sturdy mounting bracket or
directly mounted to the valve’s ISO mounting pad. High tensile bolts or studs with
spring locking washers must be used.
•The valve output shaft must be inline with the actuator output drive to avoid side-
loading the shaft. To avoid any backlash no flexibility in the mounting bracket or
mounting should be allowed.
•Reserve the space for maintenance routines and tasks.
7. Electrical Connections
Safety instructions on chapter 3 must be observed. Work on electrical system
or equipment must only be carried out by skilled electrician.
Wiring diagram is enclosed outside the quarter turn electric actuator.
Observe the max. allowable current/voltage values of electric devices.
•Standard factory units are anti-clockwise to open.
•Make sure that power supply voltage is in accordance with the data on the
actuator nameplate.
•The supplied electrical connectors used to connect to the actuator are DIN plugs.
Ensure the diameter of cable to be used conforms to the maximum and minimum
requirements of the DIN plugs to maintain water tightness.

•Ensure that the square rubber seal is in place when fixing each DIN plug to the
actuator. Failure to do so could allow water ingress and damage caused by this
installation error will invalidate any warranty.
•The DIN plugs are fixed to their respective bases on the actuator housing with a
screw. Do not overtighten the screw when assembling.
IMPORTANT: The actuator has an internal 3,5 W thermostatically controlled heater
which maintains the internal temperature between 20º and 30º C eliminating the
damage due to condensation. For this reason, it is necessary for the actuator to be
permanently energized.

8. Preliminary Test and Settings
•It is recommended that only qualified electrical engineers be allowed to connect or
adjust these actuators. Always ensure that the power supply is disconnected prior
to removing the top cover by disconnecting the DIN power input plug.
•It is strongly recommended that each actuator has its own independent fuse
system to protect it from the electrical influence of other electrical devices.
8.1 Local Visual Position Indicator
•All GE actuators are supplied with a local visual position indicador comprising of a
black base with a yellow insert that shows both the position and direction of
rotation (Figure 1).
•When the yellow insert indicate ][ the actuator is OPEN and if this indication
is ][ the actuator is CLOSED.
Figura 1
•Opening = counter clockwise.
Closing = Clockwise
8.2 Emergency Manual Override Facility
•All GE actuators are supplied with a declutchable manual override to allow
operation should power not be available.
•The GE actuator has 2 operating modes, automatic and manual, the required
mode is selected using a lever on the lower half of the actuator housing. The 2
positions are marked:
AUTO = Automatic operation
MAN = Manual operation

WARNING: Do not remove the selector lever securing cross head screw as this will allow
its internal mechanism to become loose and will cause irreparable damage to the
actuator’s gearbox. Removing this screw will invalidate the warranty.
When “MAN” function is selected:
•The electronic system cuts the power to the motor after a few seconds.
•The motor to output shaft drive is disconnected.
•The desired position can be achieved by using the handwheel.
•There are two ways to re-activate the motor after being isolated whilst in “MAN”
position:
1. With the actuator in ‘MAN’ function, using the handwheel/ handlever, turn
the actuator to one of the endpositions (open or closed). If the endposition
switch is activated the motor runs. Now switch the manual override from
“MAN” to “AUTO” . and the actuator is ready to operate automatically again.
2. Switch from “MAN” mode to “AUTO”. Desactivate the supply voltage for a
few seconds which resets the actuator and it is then ready to operate
automatically again.

8.3 External LED Status Light (Only in J3 Type)
The LED status light provides visual communication between the actuator and the user
8.4 Adjusting of the cams
The standard actuators are always adjusted at 0º (closed) and 90º (open).
If is necessary modify or adjusting the cams, the secuence is:
Tolling: One special plastic wrench (supplied together with the actuator).
To move the cams, introduce the special plastic wrench in the hole of the cam and turn it
round (see both options on the enclosed pictures).

2 = Cam 2 adjusting of the open position.
3 = Cam 3 adjusting of the closed position confirmation.
4 = Cam 2 adjusting of the open position confirmation.
To avoid the problem that the position confirmation does not work, adjust the confirmation
cams (3 & 4) aprox. 3 degrees before of the stop motor.
To adjust the close position at less than 0º:
Turn the wrench to clockwise direction –cams 1 and 3.
The cam 3 should press the lever of the micro switch a little before that the cam 1.
To adjust the close position at more than 0º:
Turn the wrench to anti-clockwise direction –cams 1 and 3.
The cam 3 should press the lever of the micro switch a little before that the cam 1.

9. Maintenance
These actuators are free maintenance, but when conditions are more severe, more
frequent inspections may be advisable.
•Ensure valve actuator alignment.
•Insure wiring is insulated, connected and terminated properly.
•Insure all screws are present and tight.
•Insure conduit connections are installed properly and are dry.
•Verify declutch mechanism.
•Visually inspect during open/close cycle.
9.1 Lubrication
GE Series electric actuator is a totally enclosed unit with a permanently lubricated gear
train. Once installed lubrication should not be required.
9.2 Cleanning
For external cleanning only use neutral detergent.
10. Trouble Shooting
The following instructions are offered for the most common difficulties encounter during
installation and start-up.
10.1 Actuator does not respond
•Verify the line voltage (Power supply) to the actuator.
•Check that the voltage matches the rating on the actuator nameplate.
