ACTIVALTM
Motorized Two-Way Valve
with Flanged Connection
Model VY51X2J
(JIS 20K-FCD450)
General
ACTIVAL Model VY51X2J is a series of motorized
two-way valves with flanged connections. The valve
and actuator are integrated in a single unit.
The valve body can be used for the control of chilled/hot
water or hot water (in high temperature), and the body
rating corresponds to JIS 20K (JIS: Japanese Industrial
Standards).
The actuator has a reversible synchronous motor, which
operates at a low voltage of 24 V AC.
5 kinds of control signals are available to operate the
ACTIVAL. The built-in feedback potentiometer provides
proportional control in combination with a proportionally
controlled electronic controller. The nominal resistance
135 Ωinput provides proportional control in combination
with a proportional electric controller. 4-20 mA DC and
2-10 V DC inputs provide proportional control in combi-
nation with a direct digital controller (DDC).
Features
•Compact and lightweight.
•Valve and actuator integrated in a single unit.
•A variety of control signals available:
- Nominal 135 Ωfeedback potentiometer
- Nominal 135 Ωresistance input
- 4-20 mA DC input
- 2-10 V DC input
•Valve with high differential pressure, large Cv values,
high rangeability and low leakage.
•Durable design.
•Low power consumption.
•Equal percentage flow characteristics.
•2-10 V DC output (for position feedback) available with
4-20 mA DC input type and 2-10 V DC input type.

Precautions for Installation
Environment
CAUTION
•Avoid using the ACTIVAL in an atmosphere
containing oxidizing or explosive gas since it
may corrode the actuator, the valve or their
components.
•The cover might be corroded by some
chemical and organic solvent. Do not ex-
pose the ACTIVAL to such substances.
•The actuator may malfunction if being
placed near by hot objects. Do not install it
near by steam or hot water coils.
Piping
1) Do not mount Model VY51X2J ACTIVAL on a pipe
where water hammer occurs, or where solid objects
may accumulate.
2) Install the ACTIVAL in a position allowing easy access
for maintenance and inspection. Fig. 1 shows the
minimum clearance for maintenance and inspection.
When installing the ACTIVAL in a ceiling space, place
a drain pan under the valve.
3) Install a bypass pipe and gate valves on the inflow,
outflow and bypass sides. Also, install a strainer on
the inflow side. When the ACTIVAL is used in steam
applications, a strainer with 80 or more meshes is
recommended.
4) Do not apply heat insulation to the actuator and the
yoke. Apply heat insulation only to the area boxed
with dotted lines shown in Fig. 3 if necessary.
5) Before the installation, check the model number on the
label attached to the yoke. The process fluid should
flow in the direction indicated by the arrow marked on
the valve body.
6) The actuator can be mounted in any position from
upright to sideways. The ACTIVAL should be
installed with its actuator vertically positioned above
the valve body. (See Fig. 4.) However, the ACTIVAL
must be installed always in upright position outdoors.
Figure 4. Actuator mounting position
Figure 3. Area where heat insulation can be applied

8AB-6465
Actuator
CAUTION
•Although the ACTIVAL can be used in high
humidity environments (max. 95 % RH), do
not immerse the actuator in water.
•Although the ACTIVAL can be used out-
doors, be sure not to expose the actuator to
direct sunlight.
The ACTIVAL features a single unit construction with the
actuator and valve combined together. Do not separate.
Position for Shipment
The actuator shaft is positioned at 100% (in fully open
position) for shipment. The shaft is completely turned
counterclockwise, and the pointer points at “100”. (See
Fig. 5)
Figure 5. Pointer position for shipment
Changing the Actuator Connection Position
1) Change the actuator mounting position only when the
actuator is in fully open position.
2) Remove the screws connecting the actuator and the
yoke. Lift the actuator and detach it from the yoke.
(Make sure that the groove at the top of the valve stem
is parallel (in fully open position) to the piping.) <Step
1 in Fig. 6>
3) Remove the screws connecting the yoke and the valve
body. <Step 2 in Fig. 6>
4) Change the direction of the yoke to the desired
direction. The actuator can be horizontally rotated
every 90°to fit into the valve mounting position
(0°/90°/180°/270°from the factory preset position).
<Step 3 in Fig. 6>
5) A thermal insulation sheet is inserted between the
yoke and the valve. If the mounting position is
changed, reinsert the thermal insulation sheet to fit
into position (1 sheet between valve body and yoke).
6) Before fixing the yoke to the valve with screws, check
that the actuator engages correctly with the stem.
(Check that the actuator pointer is in fully open
position.)
7) Mount the actuator, with its direction changed, to the
yoke. <Step 4 in Fig. 6>
IMPORTANT:
Do not change the combination of valve body,
yoke and actuator.

Manually Opening/Closing Valve
CAUTION
•To manually open or close the valve, be
sure to disconnect the ACTIVAL from the
power supply (24 V AC). If the valve is
manually opened or closed with the power
applied, the actuator may be damaged.
•Never rotate the joint out of “0” to “100”
range of the scale.
Before manually opening or closing the ACTIVAL, make
sure it is disconnected from the power supply.
As shown in Fig. 7, hold the joint with a tool such as a
hexagonal wrench, and turn the joint slowly toward the
position to set up.
Figure 7. Manual open/close operation
Auxiliary Switch / Auxiliary Potentiometer
(Optional)
CAUTION
•The auxiliary switch and the auxiliary poten-
tiometer are installed on site. (See Fig. 15.)
Refer to the instructions attached to them.
•Do not open the top cover except when ad-
justing the auxiliary switch or auxiliary poten-
tiometer.
•Do not put a load on the cover.
Wiring
CAUTION
•Disconnect power supply before performing
any wiring.
•This product is designed for 24 V AC power
supply voltage. Do not apply mains power.
•For correct wiring of 4-20 mA DC input and
2-10 V DC input, refer to Figs. 10 to 13 and
make sure the polarity of power supply and
2-10 V DC output. Incorrect wiring may
result in PCB (printed circuit board) burnout.
•To prevent equipment damage, cover the
actuator except during wiring work.
Wiring precautions
1) Do not apply 24 V AC to the terminals 4, 5 and 6.
(Max. applicable voltage: 5 V DC)
2) To lead the wires into the actuator, cut out a knockout
hole for a wiring port. There are two knockout holes
on the bilateral sides of the actuator terminal block:
one φ22 mm knockout hole on each side. Select a
knockout hole according to the conduit mounting
direction and cut it out by lightly knocking with a
screwdriver. (Refer to Fig. 8 )
Figure 8. Knockout hole for wiring port
3) Correctly connect the wiring to the terminals with M3.5
screws, referring to the wiring terminal diagrams
shown in Figs. 10 to 13 and the wiring examples
shown in Fig. 14. (For the wiring of the auxiliary switch
or the auxiliary potentiomenter, refer to Fig. 15.)
4) When the ACTIVAL is used in a high-humidity
environment or outdoors, use a water-proof connector.
Figure 9. Terminal cover removal
Unscrew the three screws (M4 ×10) to remove the ter-
minal cover. (See Fig. 9.)
1.Remove
these screws.
2.Remove terminal cover.

10 AB-6465
For splash-proof enclosure...
1) Be sure to completely close the terminal cover and the top cover.
2) Waterproof the wiring port.
•For cable connection, use a water-proof connector.
Recommended product:
Seal conector ( Part No. 83104346-003 )
•For conduit connection, use a water-proof plica tube or the like to ensure water proofing.
