Use
●For zone valves VVP.., VXP.., VMP..: compatible with SSC161.05UT
●For 2-/3-port valves: compatible with SSC161.05UT
●Typically in chilled ceiling, VAV and fan coil unit applications
●Max.10 units of SC161.05UT 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.
DC 0…10 V positioning signal
●The valve opens / closes in proportion to the
positioning signal at Y.
●At DC 0 V, actuator stem is retracted, the normally
closed valve is fully closed.
●When there is no operating voltage, the actuator
maintains its current position.
●This actuator provides a DC 0…10 V position
feedback signal proportional to the stroke of the
actuator stem.
Y = Positioning signal Y [V]
H = Percentage of calibrated valve stroke

Notes
Engineering
The actuators must be electrically connected in accordance with local regulations (see
"Connection diagram [▶13]").
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 [▶10]").
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 instruction" for graphical instructions.

Crimp ferrule on stripped wire of connecting cable.
●Observe all admissible temperatures (see "Technical data [▶10]").
●Do not twist the cable.
●Magnets can damage the actuator.
●Provide a means for isolation from the power supply, e.g., connecting a circuit breaker or
switch fuse upstream of the control unit.
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.
CAUTION
Phase cut and pulse-duration-modulated (PDM) signals are not suitable.
Regulations and requirements to ensure the safety of people and property must be
observed at all times!
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 > 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 Allen 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 positioning signal from the controller.
3. Adjust the position of the actuator stem by rotating Allen wrench (b) illustrated below
clockwise or anti-clockwise.
–The actuator stem moves down if you rotate clockwise; it moves up if you rotate anti-
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. Positioning 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 positioning
signal are applied, manual operation can be done without pressing button (a).
Cabling operation
1. Unscrew cover screw
2. Remove cover
3. Connect or disconnect wire terminals
4. Install the cover
5. Screw in the cover screw

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Statement
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
