iVS Range Installation and Operating Manual
This document provides necessary information for the installation and commissioning of the iVS A to D Range
Failsafe quarter-turn electric actuator. Each unit is shipped from the factory with initial calibration of cams and
switches completed for 0°
–
90° operation. However, these are general settings and serve as a starting point for
proper calibration of the actuator in its real-world application.
Only competent and trained personnel should install, maintain and operate iVS actuators. Any work related to
an actuator must be carried out in accordance with this manual, accompanied manuals, and related codes and
regulations. Local workplace health and safety rules should always be followed.
NOTE: Throughout the documentation we reference CLOCKWISE (CW)
rotation (spring retracted) as moving in
the CLOSE direction and COUNTER-CLOCKWISE (CCW) rotation (spring compressed) as moving in the OPEN
direction.
Receiving / Inspection
•
Carefully inspect for shipping damage. Damage to the shipping carton is usually a good indication that it has
received rough handing. Report all damage immediately to the freight carrier and your seller.
•
After unpacking the product and information packet, please take care to save the shipping carton and any
packing material, in case of product return or replacement. Verify that the item on the packing list or bill of
lading is the same as your own documentation. If there is any discrepancy, please contact the seller.
Storage
•
If the actuator cannot be installed immediately, store it in a clean, dry environment. The actuator must be
protected from excess moisture and dust, until you are ready to connect the electrical cables. The actuator
should not be installed outside, unless it is powered up and has the proper conduit connections.
•
If the actuator must be installed, but cannot be wired, do not remove the plastic cable entry plugs. When
the actuator is wired, it is recommended to replace the plastic cable entry plugs with water-proof conduit
fittings.
•
Storage temperature should be within the standard operating temperature range of the actuator.
