Use
●For 2-way and 3-way Powermite 599 MZ Series globe valves, 599-01100 - 599-01139
●Typically in chilled ceiling, VAV, unit ventilators, fan coil unit and other terminal unit ap-
plications
●Max.10 units of SSB161.05U can operate in parallel, provided the controller output
suffices.
Technical design When the actuator is driven by DC 0…10 V positioning signal, it produces a stroke, which is
transmitted to the valve stem. This is converted to mechanical stroke which controls the
position of valve stem.
If not specifically stated, the description of operation in this document applies to valve
versions that are fully closed when valve stem is extended / no actuator is mounted.
DC 0...10 V control signal
●The valve opens / closes in proportion to the
control signal at Y.
●At DC 0 V, the actuator stem is retracted, the
normally closed valve is fully closed and the
normally open valve is fully open.
●When no power is supplied, the actuator maintains
its current position.

Notes
Engineering The actuators must be electrically connected in accordance with local regulations (see
"Connection diagrams”).
CAUTION
National safety regulations
Failure to comply with national safety regulations may result in personal injury and property
damage.
●Observe national provisions and comply with the appropriate safety regulations.

Observe permissible temperatures (see "Technical data [▶9]").
Mounting
WARNING
●Do not use pipe wrenches, pliers or similar tools.
●Avoid lateral pressure or (cable) tension on the mounted actuator!
Valve and actuator are easy to assemble on site before commissioning:
●Remove protective cover from the valve body.
●Position the actuator and tighten the union nut manually.
●See "Mounting instructions" for graphical instructions.
Orientation
Commissioning When commissioning, check both wiring and functioning of the actuator.
●Actuator stem extends Normally open valve closes, normally closed valve opens
●Actuator stem retracts Normally open valve opens, normally closed valve closes
NOTICE
The actuator must be commissioned only with a correctly mounted valve in place!
Self-calibration When operating voltage is applied, the actuator self-calibrates (fully retracted ➙fully
extended ➙setpoint).

CAUTION
Never intervene manually during self-calibration.
NOTICE
●Correct calibration is only possible with valve stroke > 0.05 inch (1.2 mm). Valve stroke
< 0.05 inch (1.2 mm) > 1.2 mm. Valve stroke < 1.2 mm results in calibration failure.
●If calibration fails, the actuator performs another calibration automatically after
10 seconds.
●After three failed calibration attempts, the actuator stem remains in the extended
position and the valves are open.
Manual operation A 3-mm hexagonal wrench can be used to move the actuator to any position.
To move the actuator stem manually
1. Open the cover using a proper screwdriver.
2. Press and hold down button (a) illustrated below for at least three seconds.
– The actuator ignores any control signal from the controller.
3. Adjust the position of the actuator stem by rotating hexagonal wrench (b) illustrated
below clockwise or counter-clockwise.
– The actuator stem moves down if you rotate clockwise; it moves up if you rotate
counter-clockwise. The manually set position is retained.
4. To exit manual operation mode, press and hold down button (a) illustrated below again
for at least three seconds.
– The actuator runs a self-calibration automatically. Control signal sent from the
controller takes effect.
5. Close the cover.
NOTICE
If operating voltage is applied to actuator, press button (a) before and after manually
adjusting the position of the actuator stem. If no operating voltage and control signal are
applied, manual operation can be done without pressing button (a).
