1 - General Information
GENERAL DESCRIPTION, ACTUATOR
The SM-6000 is an AC input, DC driven electric actuator
designed for high modulation service. This actuator uses a
Rotork Process Controls locally mounted, or remotely located
microprocessor- based motor drive and controller. A wide
array of standard options are available for this actuator.
The SM-6000 Series actuators provide the highest speed,
torque, modulation rate, and positioning accuracy of any
electric actuator in the Rotork Process Controls product line.
With the standard control electronics, they are self-contained
automatic positioning devices capable of moving the largest
loads at speeds typical of electrohydraulic devices, and with
an unrestricted modulation rating. These high-performance
actuators are electrically controlled, self-contained, high
speed, high torque devices. With essentially unlimited
rotational travel, they provide a superior solution for any
modern actuation application.
The SM-6000 is designed using an all steel gear train
submersed in an oil bath, and conservatively rated bearings.
This design assures the longest possible life while reducing
the risk of costly repairs and unscheduled maintenance.
An internally mounted electronic controller converts AC
power input to DC power.
The DC power is then controlled by a microprocessor based
digital servo amplifier that efficiently controls speed and
torque of the drive motor.
The motor drives through high efficiency helical bevel gearing
that provides smooth and quiet operation at rated load
indefinitely in the event of power loss or shutoff.
A holding brake at the rear of the motor will hold the full
rated load in the last position until power is restored. The
holding brake is always in the released state whenever power
is applied to the actuator. It is an electrically released, spring
set type holding brake. The brake is constantly in a stand-by
mode, and does not stop the motor. The motor does the
braking electrically, so there is no wear on the brake because
the brake is only holding, and not stopping the load. The load
is always supported by the motor, even when the command
input is not changing.
A local override handcrank at the rear of the motor can
be used to manually position the load when power is
interrupted.
The SM-6000 is well equipped with popular standard
features, and a wide variety of standard options are available
to suit most applications.
Special factory supplied options and designs are also available.

INSTALLATION NOTES
CAUTION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING
THE INSTALLATION IN ORDER TO ACCUSTOM YOURSELF
WITH THIS EQUIPMENT. FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
DURING THE INSTALLATION. DO NOT APPLY POWER UNTIL
TOLD TO DO SO OR PERMANENT DAMAGE CAN RESULT.
1. Use care whenever carrying, setting, or working around
the actuator. This is a precision piece of equipment that
will be permanently damaged if dropped or mistreated
during handling. Damage due to abuse or mishandling is
not covered by the factory warranty.
2. The installation site must have environmental conditions
compatible with the actuator design. Do not use this
product in temperatures higher than the design allows,
or in explosive environments if it is not rated accordingly.
To maintain the environmental ratings, all covers must be
tightly closed at all times. All cover fittings must be used
and fastened securely. Using a 3/16’’ Hex key, remove the
four capscrews securing the terminal compartment cover
(Fig. 3.1). The actuator is supplied with a wiring diagram,
certificate of conformance and terminal fixings stored in
the terminal compartment area (Fig 3.2 and Fig 3.3).
3. Read the actuator nameplate located on the outside of
the unit. It will reference a specific wiring diagram. Refer
to the wiring diagram to identify functions of terminals
(Fig. 3.2). Check that the supply voltage is the same as
that marked on the actuator nameplate. That diagram
MUST be used for wiring this product. Run wires as
indicated, but DO NOT apply power until later. To prevent
electrical noise pickup, power and signal wires must be
routed through separate metallic conduit and the signal
wires must also be shielded and the shield grounded (Fig.
3.1. A,B,C,D).
For actuators where the control enclosure must be
located away from the actuator, do not exceed a wire
run distance of fifty feet between the actuator and
the control enclosure.
When all connections are made, replace the wiring
diagram in the terminal compartment.
4. Replace Terminal Cover Ensure cover o-ring seal and
joint are in good condition and lightly greased before re-
fitting cover. Seal any unused conduit entries with metal
plugs (Fig. 3.4. C,D).

5. The actuator must be securely anchored to a rigid
foundation before any load is applied to the output
shaft. All of the actuator mounting holes designed for
anchoring must have a bolt or stud, which should be of
the largest size that fits in the mounting hole (Fig. 3.5. A).
6. The drive arm (if used) should be attached to the actuator
output shaft using the hardware supplied. The drive arm
has a hole to attach the linkage to the load. This linkage
should be connected to the drive arm with a flexible
rod-end to accommodate misalignment, and the rod-end
must be sized for approximately twice the actuator full
load rating (Fig. 3.5. B).
7. The actuator is designed to withstand the rigors of
industrial environments. To maintain the environmental
ratings, all cover fixings must be used and fastened
securely (Fig. 3.6).
Mounting:
The outline and mounting dimensions for a standard unit
are shown in this manual. Sufficient room to remove the
cover should be provided for servicing and upgrade.
Orientation:
The unit is oil filled and must be mounted in the
configuration ordered. When mounting the unit, be sure
that no excessive axial or side loading is applied to the
output shaft.
Output Drive Shaft:
The limit switches and position feedback are directly
connected to the output shaft. Positively secure the
output to the driven load shaft to prevent slippage, which
would cause misalignment or damage.
Local Overide:
When local override is required, push in handcrank
(Fig 3.7) and turn the crank in the appropriate direction
for the desired output shaft movement. Note: Do not
force handcrank if there is an obstruction as excessive
torque will be generated at the output shaft. The load or
actuator may be damaged as a result.
CAUTION - LOCAL OPERATION
WITH RESPECT TO HAND CRANK OPERATION OF
SM6000 SERIES ELECTRIC ACTUATORS, UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANY ADDITIONAL LEVER
DEVICE SUCH AS A WHEEL-KEY OR WRENCH BE APPLIED
TO THE HAND CRANK MECHANISM IN ORDER TO
DEVELOP MORE FORCE WHEN MOVING THE ACTUATOR
IN EITHER DIRECTION AS THIS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE
TO ACTUATED DEVICE, ASSOCIATED LINKAGES OR
ACTUATOR ITSELF.

3 - Installation cont.
If, during local operation, electric power is restored to the
actuator, the power cannot drive back through the manual
handcrank and harm the operator. Upon completion of
hand operation, the handcrank will spring return to its home
position allowing electric operation to resume.
The handcrank and holding brake compartment at the rear
of the motor relies upon the cover to maintain the watertight
NEMA Type 4 rating. This cover should be removed only
when work is being done internally, and should be reinstalled
tightly immediately upon completion.
This unit contains no internal mechanical stops as standard.
If it runs outside of the initial factory alignment of the limit
switches, a realignment of switches and feedback may be
required. However, no internal damage will occur.
The actuator is designed to give long, troublefree life when
installed and operated in accordance with factory guidelines.
Position Limit Switches
The actuator is supplied with two Position Limit Switches
PL1 (cam#1) & PL2 (cam#2) as standard (Fig. 3.8 and Fig.
3.9). These switches are mounted behind the control cover
assembly and are typically set to operate outside the normal
limits of travel to act as motor shutoff devices in the event of
over travel.
Two optional switches PL3 (cam#3) and PL4 (cam#4) can be
fitted to provide external travel limit switch indication.
Up to 4 additional switches can be supplied to provide
external travel limit switch indication.

3.1 - Installation Wiring & Typical Wiring Diagram
A typical wiring diagram is shown below. Actual wiring
should follow the print supplied with the actuator. The
wiring diagram shows the fundamental connections for the
standard control scheme, and standard permanent magnet
DC motor. Items shown on print arrangement include limit
switches, feedback potentiometers, heater and encoders. To
meet special requirements, certain items shown may not be
supplied. In all instances the wiring diagram appropriate
to the equipment will be supplied with each unit.
Wiring should be routed to the actuator through customer
supplied conduit entries located on the control enclosure.
Generally, one conduit will contain input power and earth
ground wires. The other conduit would then contain low level
input and output signal wiring. It is required that all low level
signal wiring be a shielded type with the shield grounded at
source common.
After installation, it is required that all conduits be sealed to
prevent water damage and to maintain watertight NEMA 4
enclosure ratings.

Redefining Flow Control
The actuator is fully tested and initially setup at the factory.
The factory default settings should be used to initially
commission the actuator on site.
WITH POWER OFF & LOAD DISCONNECTED
Verify that all wiring is correct and that the supply voltage
matches the voltage shown on the actuator identification
label. Refer to the wiring diagrams supplied with the actuator
for specific details (Fig. 4.5).
Ensure all electrical connections are tight and splash guard
refitted. Cable screens/shields must be suitably connected to a
reliable earth ground (Fig. 4.6).
To maintain the environmental ratings, all cover fixings must
be used and fastened securely (Fig. 4.7).
REMOVE CONTROL ASSEMBLY COVER (OPTIONAL)
CAUTION
DO NOT FULLY REMOVE COVER UNLESS THE WIRING
LOOMS ARE DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAIN PCB.
It is only necessary to remove the control cover assembly to
adjust and setup the position limit switch assemblies located
inside the control housing.
If the limit switches do not require adjustment leave the cover
assembly in place and go to Page 20 (Fig. 4.16).
Locate and remove four socket cap screws using a 1/4” Hex
key which secure the control assembly cover to the gearcase
(Fig. 4.7). Remove the cover far enough to clear the electrical
chassis taking care not to damage cables connecting the
VFD display and control knobs to the Logic control PCB. If
necessary disconnect the two cables from the Logic Control
PCB to the cover assembly (Fig. 4.8).

The cover assembly can now be relocated on to the left or
right hand side of the gear-case to facilitate setup. Use one of
the original fixings to secure the control cover assembly to the
gear-case (Fig. 4.9).
Reconnect looms to the main PCB if necessary (Fig. 4.10).
REMOVE TOP & SIDE COVER ASSEMBLIES
The top and side cover assemblies may be removed for
clearer access to the Limit Switch assemblies. 3/16” Hex key.
Figure 4.12 shows top cover removed of an actuator fitted
with additional position limit switches for remote indication.
