When the end cap seal need to be replaced (DA & SR)  follow the instructions below:(see fig. 2) 

 

1.

 

Place the actuator in fail safe position. 

2.

 

Remove any electric power and pressure supply. 

3.

 

Unthread the lock nut (item 36) and the stop screw (item 35) paying attention to not remove completely 
the end stroke. 

 

Warning:

 

Remember that a preloaded spring is included in the cylinder. (If SR Actuator) 

 

4.

 

Unthread the screws (item 45) with washer (item 46) in the proper sequence and remove the end flange 
(item 32) along with end stroke assembly. 

5.

 

Remove the circlip (item 33)  which holds the end stroke screw (item 35). 

6.

 

Remove the end stroke  screw (item 36) with locking  nut (item 35)  from end flange. Then remove the 
locking nut from the end stroke screw. 

7.

 

Remove the existing O-ring (item 34) and clean the groove of the locking nut. 

8.

 

Clean the surface of the end flange (item 32) of the cylinder. 

9.

 

Install the new O-ring on locking nut and apply a grease film. 

(suggested grease: Parker super-o-lube or equivalent) 

10.

 

Install the locking nut into the stop screw and thread the stop screw assembly into the end flange and lock 
it with circlip.
