The RIFT® 30 can be congured either as a part-turn electric actuator or as a direct acng solenoid.
The selecon of actuator or solenoid is made when the factory default sengs are programmed into
the RIFT® 30 at the RIFT Actuators factory or authorized distribuon center. When congured as an
electric actuator, a three wire supply system with a switchable live/+v must be connected as, in this
conguraon, the RIFT® 30 will not reverse if only 2 wires are connected. The RIFT® 30 could
operate with failsafe as the instrucon to reverse on loss of power, however cauon must be
observed as the primary posion will need to be the non-failsafe posion for the baery to receive
the majority of the operaonal period me to maintain the charge to the baery.
Congured as a direct acng solenoid, the RIFT® 30 eliminates the problems commonly encountered with pilot oper-
ated solenoids relang to dierenal pressures across the valve, and the valve blocking or clogging. When connected us-
ing a 2 wire system, the RIFT® 30 can be congured as a standard normally closed solenoid so external power applied
across the two pins opens the actuator and de-energizing closes it. The opposite occurs for normally open applicaons.
When connected using a 3 wire system, the RIFT® 30 can be congured as a latching normally closed solenoid so exter-
nal power pulsed to the third pin opens the actuator and another pulse closes it. The opposite occurs for normally open
applicaons. Dramacally dierent to solenoids, the RIFT® 30 introduces end of travel conrmaon, local controls and
torque protecon and as an extra cost opon, speed control.
CONFIGURING AS A MULTI-TURN ACTUATOR RIFT® 30 can be congured either as a part-turn electric actuator or as a
mul turn actuator. The selecon mul-turn is made through the Factory only, If the usage is within designed parameters
this can be purchased and congured, this will be updated onto the Android RIFT® App when App is opened and con-
nected to the internet.
