Functional Description
The following is a functional description of the Bettis Electro Hydraulic Actuator and a
brief explanation of the main components. Throughout this explanation, numbers which
appear in in [ ] correspond to components labeled on the wiring diagram. Numbers in
( ) correspond to components labeled on the schematic diagram. Information in (( )) is
descriptive.
5.4.1
Double Acting Without Accumulator and ESD Solenoid Valve
NOTE:
Refer to Section 10.1 for Hydraulic Schematic 11794-S, however the project specified
schematic may be slightly different in the numbering sequence and should be referred
to determine the actual options provided.
5.4.1.1 Power Stroke ((Open/Close))
Either one of the two closing or opening solenoids (J) or (K) are energized open
and the motor (Z) drives the hydraulic pump (Y) to supply the actuator open or
closing port thru the energized solenoid.
5.4.1.2 Manual Hand Pump Stroke
a.
Open the hand pump selection isolation valve (M) to the pump posi-
tion. Note: both isolation valves (M) must be engaged whether hand
pumping open or close.
b.
Select and push the open or close knob on the hand pump (L).
c.
Stroke the hand pump (L) until the OPEN/CLOSE stroke is completed.
d.
Push the manual relief valve located on the hand pump to retract the
pump ram back into the pump body and pull the pump handle down.
e.
Upon completion of the OPEN/CLOSE hand pump stroke, return both
hand pump selection isolation valves back to the automatic position.
5.4.2 Double Acting with Optional Accumulator and ESD Solenoid Valve Functional
Description
NOTE:
Refer to Section 10.2. for Hydraulic schematic 11516-S, however the project specified
schematic may be slightly different in the numbering sequence and should be referred
to determine the actual options provided.
5.4.2.1 Accumulator Charge
The motor (Z) drives the hydraulic pump (Y) and discharges fluid to the nitrogen
blanket pre-charged accumulator (E).
5.4.2.2 Power Stroke ((Open/Close))
Upon completion of the accumulator charging, the pressure switch (R) set point
is reached and stops the motor. Either one of the two closing or opening sole-
noids (J) or (K) are energized open and the accumulator (E) provides hydraulic
pressure to flow thru the energized solenoid, either (J) or (K) and the actuator
strokes open or closed.
