Field Manual

P1.A..P Series

 

Proportional Control

ISO5211 F07 8P17

The following procedure is to be followed for set-up, calibration, testing and use of the P1 Series Proportional Control 
quarter-turn electric actuators. Each unit is shipped from the factory with initial calibration of  cams and switches completed. 
However, these are general settings and serve as a starting point for proper calibration of the actuator in its’ real-world 
application. 

Note: The P1.A actuator out put shaft drives CW to close (as viewed from above). However, the indicator shaft 

turns CW to open (as viewed from above). 

This design utilizes NO MECHANICAL stops.

Determine if any adjustments are required 

BEFORE

 making any changes to cams or controller settings. Make the power 

and  control  connections  per  the  wiring  diagram  on  page  2. Apply  power  to  the  actuator  and  wait  20  seconds  for  the 
controller to power up.

The proportional control card has been calibrated and tested at the factory to provide full scale response between 
0 degrees and 90 degrees operating range. Typically all that is required is a power supply and a control signal to 
initialize and put the actuator into service with no need for any adjustments. 

Important Note:

THIS ACTUATOR MUST HAVE THE EMT FITTINGS WATER TIGHT WITH CONDUIT DRAINAGE  INSTALLED  A N D 
POWER SUPPLIED TO UNIT TO KEEP THE HEATER WARM AT THE TIME OF INSTALLATION .
 

l

   This unit should NOT be stored outside unless it is powered up. 

 

When this unit is NOT powered up, it should be stored in a clean, dry environment at all times.

Conventions used in this manual: 
 

1. All references to rotation are as viewed from ABOVE the actuator.

The default settings in the controller are as follows:

 

1. Input/Output Signal:  4-20mA (unless otherwise specifi ed at time of Factory order)

 

2. Signal Response: 

Direct Acting (max signal = OPEN)

 

3. Loss of Signal: 

Fail in Position
