Wiring

Start-up Sequence

When power to the actuator is turned on, the 

actuator will automatically calibrate to determine 

closing point. Hereafter it will proceed to normal 

operation mode (according to control signal).

For the failsafe version (FN.1.2), capacitor 

charging will be prioritized (max. 120 sec de-

pending on capacitor energy level) during start-

up and re-powering. After completion of charging 

mode followed by calibration mode, the actuator 

will proceed to normal operation mode.

Auto Cycle Sequence

Auto Cycle can be activated during commission-

ing. It prevents the valve from jamming when the 

valve is not moved for a longer period of inactiv-

ity. By moving DIP switch #1 from OFF to ON, 

Auto Cycle is activated. Actuator will then per-

form 50% stroke cycle every 3 weeks if no stroke 

movement has occurred.

Electrical Override

By moving DIP switch #6 from OFF to ON, elec-

trical override is activated and the actuator will 

open valve fully. During electrical override the 

LED indicator will blink red and green. When DIP 

switch #6 is moved back to OFF, the actuator will 

re-calibrate and thereafter go into normal opera-

tion mode. Electrical override is performed with 

power supply on.

Failsafe Mode (FlowCon FN.1.2)

When power is lost, the actuator will go into fail-

safe mode after a few seconds, mandatory that 

capacitor charging and start-up sequence are 

completed. The actuator will perform failsafe 

action (open or close) and stay in failsafe final 

position until return of power. Upon power, the 

actuator remains in the final failsafe position until 

charging mode is reached (max. 60 sec). Here-

after the actuator will return to normal operation 

mode.
