M9216 Series Electric Spring Return Actuators Installation Instructions 

 

 

8.  Remove the manual crank, and return it to its 

original position on the actuator cover. 

Notes: 

When changing the rotation range on the 

xGC models with auxiliary switches, one or 
both switches may need to be adjusted. See the 

Auxiliary Switches (xGC Models)

 section. 

When changing the rotation range on HGx models with 
zero and span potentiometers, both potentiometers 
must be adjusted. See the 

Potentiometers 

(HGx Models) 

section. 

Feedback Signal 

The feedback signal varies with a change to the 
rotation range. The resistance feedback is reduced 
corresponding to the reduced rotation range for the 
AGD and AGE models. For the HGx and JGx models, 
a change to the rotation range changes the feedback 
signal and the operating range. This applies to the 
GGx models only in the fixed mode. (See Figure 6.) 

Note: 

Refer to the 

Setup and Adjustments, Fixed or 

Auto Mode (GGx Models)

 section for the GGA and 

GGC models. Once calibrated, a change to the rotation 
range does not affect the feedback signal and 
operating range of the GGx models.

Wiring 

!

 CAUTION: Equipment Damage Hazard. 

Disconnect all power supplies before wiring 
connections are made, or prior to performing 
maintenance. Check all wiring connections before 
applying power to the system. Short-circuited or 
improperly connected wires will result in permanent 
damage to the equipment. 

 

IMPORTANT: 

Install all quick-connect terminals in 

the same direction to prevent shorting. (See Figure 
7.) 

 

Figure 7: Orientation of Terminals 

Observe the following when wiring an M9216 actuator: 

 

Make all wiring connections in accordance with the 
National Electrical Code and local regulations. 

 

Note that there is a 25-second delay for all models 
(except the BGx and GGx), before the actuator 
responds after power is applied. 

 

Do not switch 24 VAC from CW to CCW 
(or CCW to CW) on the AGx models in less than 
0.5 seconds.
