Ambient temperature
* Environmental temperature range for use : –25℃～55℃.
* For use in minus temperature, in-fit space heater is available at option.
* For use in temperature beyond the specified range, refer to our Sales Dept.
Fluid temperature
It is occasional that if the actuator is applied to a high temperature fluid line, the unit may
overheat by transmission of line heat. In such a case, use radiation type bracket and couplings.
(available at option)
* Standard bracket and couplings : Fluid temperature max. 65℃
* Radiation type bracket and couplings : Fluid temperature over 65℃

Assembly procedure
1. Be sure that power is off before making manual operation.
2. Confirm that a valve smoothly turns by hand without eccentricity, then position it at full close.
Note : There are some valves designed in reverse direction of open/close.
3. Bolt a bracket on the valve.
4. Tentatively mount an actuator on the bracket with loose bolts.
5. Position the actuator at 0 (close), joint the output shaft and the valve stem with couplings.
6. Screw up the bolts.
7. Check with the attached crank handle if the valve is turns smoothly without eccentricity.
CAUTION ON WIRING WORK
6. WIRING
6-1 Power and input signals
Use a cable of φ9~11mm for the standard connector. (See FIG.7)
If a customer connector is used, select a cable of proper diameter, preventing water ingress to
the unit.
6-2 Wiring work
Use sufficiently sealed tubes or conduit to prevent water ingress.

Do not make parallel operation with plural actuators.
If they are operated at the same time through one open-close switch, the actuators may
draw abnormal current into the units, causing chattering, then disturbance to normal
operation.
If it goes as is for a long time, actuators may become defective.
Confirm that power is OFF before making manual operation
8. ADJUSTMENT

1. Adjustment of limit switches and position meter
(1) Unic-Z, 05
(2) Unic-10
!10
LS1: Open limit switch
LS2: Open contact output
LS3: Close limit switch
LS4: Close contact output
1. Fully open the valve by manual handle.
Loosen and turn the lower limit dog and confirm that
the limit switch is effective.
2. For close side, fully close the valve, turn the upper
limit dog, and confirm that the switch is effective.
3. Tighten the dog nut up. Adjustment of the valve
position indicator is now completed. Contact output
positions are also adjusted.
* Position limit switch is normally at “B” contact,
contact output is at “A” contact, respectively.
The upper limit switch is for close, lower one is for
open direction. 2 extra limit switches (contact output)
are available at option.
1. Open the valve fully by manual handle.
Loosen and turn the lower dog. Confirm that the
switch has been off, then screw the dog up.
2. Adjust the close side in the same manner.
The adjustment is now over.
3. The limit switch is normally at “A” contact.

The limit switch at right is for close, left one is for open
direction.
1. Open the valve fully by manual handle.
2. Remove the opening meter.
3. Loosen and turn the limit dog and confirm that the
limit switch clicks. Then screw up the dog.
4. Adjust close side in the same manner.
Adjustment is now over.
* The limit switches are normally at “B” contact.
The limit switch at right is for close, left one is for open
direction.
1. Open the valve fully by manual handle.
2. Loosen, then set the position meter at full open.
3. Loosen, and turn the lower limit dog.
Confirm that the limit switch clicks. Then screw up
the dog.
4. Adjust close side in the same manner.
Adjustment is now over.
* The limit switches are normally at “B” contact.

Intermediate limit switch can be set at any position.
1. After setting the actuator at a desired rate, adjust LS-1 dog to a position where the limit switch
clicks.
2. Set LS-2 in the same manner.
* Refer to Fig.13 for wiring diagram.
Standard resistance for your choice:
135, 500,1000 Ω
1. Open the valve fully by manual handle.
2. Loosen opening-meter gear.
3. Applying a tester between 4-5 terminals on the terminal block, set the opening-meter at a point
where the resistance rate becomes below 5Ω,then screw it up.
* Refer to Fig.14 for wiring diagram.

1. Cut power off before making manual operation.
2. Insert the manual handle into the hexagonal hole
underneath the rubber cap.
3. Turn the handle clockwise for close, counter
clockwise for open.
Note: The limit switches become effective at open/
close of position meter. The stops are at 1/2 turn
beyond those points. Do not apply excessive force to
the handle, for it might damage the unit.

CAUTION
2. Power operation
Before making power operation:
●Confirm that the indication on the position meter and the valve opening are matching each
other.
●Confirm that the circuits are properly wired, also that the unit operates in correct direction
with external switches.
10. MAINTENANCE, INSPECTION
Lubrication
As the major parts of the products are lubricated with long life di-sulfate molybdenum grease
(MoS2) before shipment, re-lubrication is in principle not required.
Inspection
When re-starting operation after a long period of rest, make the following confirmation.
●Cut power off, confirm by manual operation that valve moves smoothly without eccentricity.
●Open body cover and check if there is no condensation inside the unit, also no problem on
wiring.
Note: After checking, secure the cover to prevent water ingress.
!14
When making manual operation,
ｂｅ sure that power is off.
If power is on while manual operation,
the handle will
suddenly return!
