OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

SETTING OF INTERNAL TRAVEL STOPS

Figure 79U & 79E - 065/090/180 are fitted with 
integral end of travel stops to enable setting of 
exact travel for the valve being operated.
These stops give adjustment of 5° overtravel to 
7° undertravel at each end of stroke. The range 
of the actuator travel is, therefore :-

at closed (0°) position - 5° to +7°

at open (90°) position 83° to 95°

TO SET THE STOPS (DOUBLE ACTING UNITS)

1.  Operate valve/actuator assembly to the 

closed position.

2.  Remove air supply.
3.  Slacken locknut on the close travel stop.
4.  Turn the stop clockwise to reduce travel or 

anticlockwise to increase travel.

5.  Re-Tighten locknut.
6.  Reconnect air supply and check that the 

position is correct. If not repeat from 
instruction 2.

7.  Apply air to operate to the open position.
8.  Remove air supply.
9.  Adjust open travel stop screw as per 

instructions 3 to 6.

TO SET THE STOPS (SINGLE ACTING UNITS) 
AIR FAIL CLOSE

1.  Remove air supply so that actuator drives to 

closed position. Note actual position.

2.  Apply air to open the actuator. Note actual 

position.

3.  Whilst the air supply is maintained slacken 

the locknut on the close stop and adjust 
the stop screw by an amount estimated to 
give correct position. (clockwise adjustment 
decreases travel).

4.  Re-tighten lock nut.
5.  Remove air so that actuator closes. If 

correct closed position is not achieved 
repeat from instruction 2.

6.  Slacken locknut on the open stop and adjust 

the travel by an amount estimated to give 
correct position. (clockwise adjustment 
decreases travel).

7.  Re-tighten locknut.
8.  Apply air and check open position. If correct 

open position is not achieved.

  Repeat from instruction 5.

TO SET THE STOPS (SINGLE ACTING UNITS) 
AIR FAIL OPEN

1.  Remove air supply so that actuator drives to 

open position. Note actual position.

2.  Apply air to close the actuator. Note actual 

position.

3.  Whilst the air supply is maintained slacken 

the locknut on the open stop and adjust the 
stop screw by an amount estimated to give 
correct position. (clockwise adjustment 
decreases travel).

4.  Re-tighten lock nut.
5.  Remove air so that actuator opens. If correct 

open position is not achieved repeat from 
instruction 2.

6.  Slacken locknut on the close stop and adjust 

the travel by an amount estimated to give 
correct position. (clockwise adjustment 
decreases travel).

7.  Re-tighten locknut.
8.  Apply air and check close position. If correct 

close position is not achieved.  
Repeat from instruction 5.

WARNINGS

Under no circumstances must the travel stop 
bolts be totally withdrawn from the actuator whilst 
compressed air is being applied.

Internal travel stops must not be used for manual 
override

Accessories mounted to the top of Actuators must 
be re-adjusted accordingly after setting the travel 
stops.
