NOTE
Due to the mounting hole pattern of the AVID LP
housing being 93.5 x 41.3 mm equal about the center
of the shaft, a modified Namur bracket is required.
The modification can either be 4 off M5 tapped holes
or 4 off M5 clearance holes.
1.4a Secure the appropriately sized modified
Namur bracket to the actuator using
the screws / washers supplied with the
Namur kit finger tight only.
1.4b(1) For mounting brackets with 4 off M5
tapped holes, mount the LP switchbox
to the mounting bracket by engaging
the Namur shaft drive into the actuator
Namur pinion slot.
1.3d Mount the AVID LP switchbox to the
actuator by aligning the 11 x 16 mm shaft
adaptor to the actuator pinion coupler.
1.3e Ensure that the base of the AVID LP
housing sits flush with the top of the
actuator.
1.3f Locate and tighten the 4 off M5 captive
screws in the base of the housing with
either a 8 mm A/F socket drive or an
appropriately sized flat blade screwdriver.

3.0 FIELD WIRING
ATTENTION
Before installing the conduit entry gland, please
ensure that it is the correct size and thread form.
An incorrect gland may affect the enclosure
ingress protection rating.
3.1 The terminal strip base has been
designed to offer easy access for wire
termination.
3.1a It is not necessary to remove the terminal
strip to connect the field wiring, but if
required, first remove the terminal strip
retaining screw and keep safe as this will
be required to secure the terminal strip
when complete.
3.1b Lift the terminal strip evenly off of the
two base pins and terminate the wiring
in accordance with the wiring diagram
which is located on the of the cover.

direction of the pins.
3.1d Secure with the retaining screw removed
in step 3.1a.
4.0 EASIFIX CAM SETTING
4.1 To set the switch or sensor cam (Fig.3),
lift the bottom cam and turn until
switch / sensor is activated and then
release. The spring will push the cam
back onto the splined shaft.
4.2 Operate the actuator to the opposite
extreme, push down on the top cam
andturn until the upper switch / sensor
isactivated.
4.3 Operate the actuator from one extreme
to the other several times to ensure that
theswitches / sensors activate correctly.

housing flange and secure using either
a 8 mm A/F spanner / socket drive or an
appropriately sized flat blade screwdriver.
