General information
1 General information
The device is to be mounted, started up or
operated only by trained and experienced
personnel familiar with the device. Accord-
ing to these mounting and operating instruc-
tions, trained personnel is referred to as indi-
viduals who are able to judge the work they
are assigned to and recognize possible dan-
gers due to their specialized training, their
knowledge and experience as well as their
knowledge of the applicable standards.
Explosion-protected versions of this device
must be operated only by personnel who has
undergone special training or instructions or
who is authorized to work on explosion-pro-
tected devices in hazardous areas.
Any hazards that could be caused in the
valve by the process medium, the signal
pressure or by moving parts are to be pre-
vented by taking appropriate precautions.
If inadmissible motions or forces are pro-
duced in the pneumatic actuator as a result
of the supply pressure, it must be restricted
using a suitable supply pressure reducing
station.
Proper shipping and storage are assumed.
For technical data, ordering specications,
spare parts and accessories, see Data Sheet
uT3776.

Installation
2 Installation
−Before installation, depressurize the rele-
vant plant section.
−Due to the high surface resistance, installa-
tion and maintenance of the equipment
within hazardous areas must be performed
in such a way as to prevent electrostatic
charging.
The degree of protection IEC60529 is only
guaranteed when the enclosure cover is
mounted, the exhaust air lters are installed
and the connections have been properly
mounted.
Devices with index 1 or lower have a black
enclosure cover with polyamide window. De-
vices with device index 2 and higher have a
transparent polycarbonate enclosure cover.
Do not loosen enameled screws in or on the
housing.
The devices are mounted onto rotary actua-
tors, linear actuators and control valves with
mounting ribs using mounting kits. Observe
the corresponding mounting instructions (see
sections2.1 to 2.7).
On mounting, make sure that at least
300mm clearance is kept above the enclo-
sure cover.
In cases where mechanical damage of the
enclosure cannot be ruled out at the site of
installation, mount additional protection to
the enclosure in order to meet the require-
ments of Clause6 of EN61241-0:2006
(Electrical Apparatus for Use in the Presence
of Combustible Dust).
Mounting position
Devices must not be mounted with the bot-
tom facing upwards onto rotary actuators or
control valves with mounting ribs in order to
prevent water from entering the enclosure.
The exhaust lter in the enclosure cover and
the cable gland must face downward or, in
cases where this is not possible, mount them
in the horizontal position.
When mounted onto SAMSON Type3277
Linear Actuators, any mounting position may
be used.

General information
2.1 Mounting on SAMSON
Type3278 Rotary
Actuators
A mounting kit (see Fig.1) is required for
mounting on SAMSONType3278 Linear
Actuators (see Data Sheet uT8321 as well
as Mounting and Operating Instructions
uEB8321).
Please note the following instructions when
mounting the device:
−Devices with Type3776-XXXXXX10
3/2-way Booster Valve
The output port on the bottom of the
booster valve must be sealed by a
threaded pin (delivered state).
−Devices with Type3776-XXXXXX10 or
-XXXXXX12 3/2-way Booster Valve
Implement the exhaust air feedback from
the rotary actuator as follows:
ÎConnect the spring chamber of the rotary
actuator using a connection line to port 4
of the booster valve.
ÎIf no exhaust air feedback is used, seal
port 4 of the booster valve with a blank-
ing plug (12).
Mounting
1. Fasten the plate (8) to the ange of the
rotary actuator using two hexagon sock-
et screws (9).
2. Insert O-rings (4) into the grooves of the
threaded bolts of the ange plate (5).
3. Fasten the ange plate (5) to the ange
of the rotary actuator using four hexa-
gon screws (6). Make sure the four hexa-
gon screws are only tightened slightly to
allow the ange plate (5) to be aligned
when attaching the enclosure.
4. Place the follower clamp (7) through the
ange
plate (5) into the slot of the plate (8) on
the rotary actuator.
5. Unscrew enclosure cover off the device.
6. Place the enclosure on the stud bolts of
the ange plate (5). Make sure that the
shaft trunnion on the device is aligned so
that it engages in the middle of the slot in
the follower clamp (7).
7. Fasten the ange plate (5) to the ange
of the rotary actuator by tightening the
four hexagon screws (6) further.
8. Fasten the enclosure using two hexagon
socket screws (1), two spring washers (2)
and two washers (3).
9. Place the indicator cap (10) on the cam
holder and turn it until it engages.
10.Fasten the enclosure cover on the device.
