SERIESCAFEMULTI-VOLTAGE
ELECTRIC ACTUATORS
Installation, operation, & maintenance instructions
Damage caused by non-compliance to these instructions will not be covered by our warranty. Read these instructions
BEFORE installing or connecting the actuator. Electric actuators operate with the use of live electricity. It is recommended
that only qualified electricians or people instructed in accordance with electrical engineering, and familiar with local
electrical, health and safety directives, be involved in the connection of these actuators. It is strongly recommended
that each actuator has its own independent fused system to protect it against the influence of other electrical devices
connected to the system. Follow instructions carefully. This unit is designed to be connected to equipment which can be
hazardous to persons and property if used incorrectly. Remove power to unit before wiring connections. Do not use unit if
plastic enclosure is cracked or broken.

INTRO TO WIRING & OPERATION
BEFORE connecting, ensure the voltage
to be applied is within the range shown
on the ID label. Do NOT connect a
voltage in excess of the intended design
or irreparable damage will be caused
and will NOT be covered by our warranty.
Actuator Power Supply must be on a
dedicated circuit and must be grounded.
Café actuators are multi-voltage capable
with automatic voltage sensing. All
connections are made using the
supplied external DIN plugs. The
rotation is factory set so under normal
circumstances there is no need to
remove the cover to connect electrically
–in fact removing the cover may
invalidate the warranty.
Water tightness: Ensure that all
rubber gaskets are correctly installed
when securing the Field attachable
connectors to the actuator. Failure to
do so could allow water ingress.
Damage caused by this installation
error will invalidate any warranty. Do
not over-tighten the securing screw .
Note that the profile gasket is part of
the Field attachable connector.

Manual Drive Use a 4 mm hex wrench to drive the
actuator manually. Rotating counter clock wise the
Manual Drive will move from close to open a valve
that is set in the Closed position. Rotating clock
wise the Manual Drive will move from open to close
a valve that is set in the Open positions.
Key Pad: Use the fully directional key pad to
navigate the menu.
Visual Indicator graphically indicates the approximate
position of the valve with respect to the full working
angle. Typical working angles are 90° or 180°. A valve
that has been set up as Normally Closed, the indicator
will move from 0° to Max Working angle when opening.
The action is reverse when closing the valve.
LED Ring Indicator The base ring of the barrel type
indicator will illuminate according to different states of
running conditions in the actuator. Scan QR code and
see chart “LED RUNNING STATES”
The Center pad is SELECT.
When driving the actuator in keypad
control the < pad rotates the actuator
counter clockwise.
When driving the actuator in Keypad
Control the > pad rotates the actuator
clockwise.

FLOW DIRECTION: Due to the Trunnion design these valves are capable of handling flow and pressure in either direction.
ALWAYS INSTALL WITH MOUNTING SUPPORTS: The weight of the valve will place undue stress on the connections. This stress can eventually
cause the body or pipe to crack.
THREADED CONNECTIONS: Use PTFE tape or a suitable pipe sealant on threaded connections. Use a strap wrench to tighten up to
1/4 turn more than hand tight. Do not use metal pipe wrenches. Metal pipe wrenches will distort or crack the valve body and
components. Do not attach female threaded plastic valves directly to metal pipe or fittings. Metal pipe should only be used with an
intervening plastic nipple.
SOCKET CONNECTIONS: (PVC and CPVC only). Cut pipe ends square and deburr. Clean mating surfaces with proper solvent.
Apply cement to surfaces and immediately assemble with 1/2 turn rotating motion. Caution: Do this disassembled from valve
to avoid damage. Primer and/or solvent cement/glue used improperly will permanently damage this valve. Do not allow primer
and/or solvent cement to touch any area other than the piping socket. Use of excessive amounts may run, drip, or otherwise enter
sensitive working parts of the valve.
FUSED CONNECTIONS: For Polypropylene Thermal Socket Fusion, follow the fusion equipment manufacturer's instructions. For more
information contact your Plast-O-Matic distributor.
FOR PROPER VALVE PERFORMANCE, IT IS IMPORTANT TO CORRECTLY TIGHTEN THE UNION NUTS: 1.Turn the ball valve to the closed position before
tightening. 2.Tighten the union nuts “hand tight” plus up to one quarter-turn tighter using a strap wrench.
ADJUSTMENTS: If valve is leaking at the PTFE seats or end O-rings simply tighten the union nuts with the valve in closed position.
Use a strap wrench to tighten up to 1/4 turn more than hand tight. Do not use metal pipe wrenches. If leaking continues
then replacement of faulty part is necessary. If leaking occurs at the stem O-ring then replacement is necessary.
DISASSEMBLY OF DOWNSTREAM PIPING: The Trunnion design of this valve enables you to disassemble the down-stream piping
from the valve by unscrewing the valve’s downstream union without leakage from the upstream pressure. To do this,
first close the valve, then slightly loosen the downstream union, then tighten the upstream union and then completely
remove the downstream union. Use extreme caution with dangerous fluids.
VALVE REMOVAL FROM PIPING: The True Union design enables you to simply unscrew the two valve union nuts and slide the valve
body away from the piping. Pressure or liquid head must be removed from both sides of valve before doing this. Use extreme
caution with dangerous fluids.

!
Final Determination of Suitability of this product for
the use contemplated by the user, the manner of that
use, and safety of that use, is the sole responsibility of
the user.
Proper care must be taken when installing a plastic
valve into a piping system or failure of the valve body
may result
DANGER: DO NOT USE PLASTIC VALVES FOR
COMPRESSED AIR OR GAS
Chlorine Gas (vacuum only): Plastic Valves should
only be used as specified by an engineer or designer
experienced in handling chlorine. Otherwise, DO NOT USE.
NOTE: TO ACHIEVE MAXIMUM CYCLE LIFE, VALVE MUST
BE MOUNTED IN UPRIGHT POSITION
WARNING: THIS VALVE MUST BE INSTALLED IN
CLOSED POSITION.
ALWAYS UTILIZE THE MOST APPROPRIATE PPE DURING INSTALLATION AND SERVICE.
