INTRODUCTION
This section covers servicing of the following actuators: Type
10L - 10S (normally open), Type 20L - 20S (Normally Closed)
Long and Short, and Type 30L - 30S (Air Both Ways).
The 10 and 20 actuators are identical; with spring return
operation. The change in description is for describing the mode
of operation when coupled to a valve. “10” defines normally
open and “20” defines normally closed operation, but physically
they are the same. Type 30 is a double acting actuator that is
identical to the 10/20 except it does not contain a spring. These
actuators will require minimum maintenance over many years of
service.
INSTALLATION
Connect air supply to the
1
/
8
-27 FNPT port(s) located on the green end cap or yoke. Air
supply specifications: 60 to 80 psig for spring return (Type 10 & 20); 35 psig for double
acting (Type 30). Refer to table at right if additional product holding pressure is required on
normally closed Type 20 actuators.
Bushing/Packing Replacement
Bushings guide the actuator stem while packings provide sealing around the stem. The
bushing and packing should both be replaced if one or the other fails. Even if only one end
fails both ends of the actuator should be serviced. Disconnect and remove actuator
completely from valve before proceeding with the steps that follow, see
Valve Disassembly.
MAINTENANCE
TYPE 10, 20, AND 30 ACTUATORS
Air pressure measured in psig.
*Additional air pressure required to hold
against 10 psig product pressure.
IMPORTANT:
Additional air supply must be relieved when
product pressure is not present. Failure to do
so will result in pressure damage to the seat.
When using additional air loading it should
exceed the minimum required by no more than
3 to 5 psig.
To prevent personal injury, do not attempt
to cut the actuator open. The actuator
spring is compressed and under load.
