                                                    installation regulations must be complied during installation.
                                                  • The device may only be opened at the manufacturer's site. It does not contain any parts that
                                                    can be replaced or repaired by the user.
                                                  • Cables must not be removed from the device.
                                                  • To calculate the torque required, the specifications supplied by the damper manufacturers

 Product features
                          Mode of operation        The actuator is equipped with a universal power supply module that can utilise supply voltages
                                                   of AC 24...240 V and DC 24...125V.
                                                   The actuator moves the damper to the operating position at the same time as tensioning the
                                                   return spring. The damper is turned back to the fail-safe position by spring force when the
                                                   supply voltage is interrupted.
                     Simple direct mounting        Simple direct mounting on the damper shaft with a universal shaft clamp, supplied with an anti-
                                                   rotation device to prevent the actuator from rotating.
                             Manual override       By using the hand crank the damper can be actuated manually and engaged with the locking
                                                   switch at any position. Unlocking is carried out manually or automatically by applying the
                                                   operating voltage.
                 Adjustable angle of rotation      Adjustable angle of rotation with mechanical end stops.
                    High functional reliability    The actuator is overload protected, requires no limit switches and automatically stops when the
                                                   end stop is reached.
                           Flexible signalling     The actuator has one auxiliary switch with a fixed setting and one adjustable auxiliary switch.
                                                   They permit a 10% or 11...100% angle of rotation to be signaled.

                                       Auxiliary switch settings
                                               Note: Perform settings on the actuator only in deenergised state.
                                       For the auxiliary switch position settings, carry out points 1 to 7 successively.
                                        1   Manual override
                                            Turn the hand crank until the desired switching position is set.
                                        2   Shaft clamp
                                            Edge line A displays the desired switching position of the actuator on the scale.
                                        3   Fasten the locking device
                                            Turn the locking switch to the „Locked padlock“ symbol.
                                        4   Auxiliary switch
                                            Turn rotary knob until the notch points to the arrow symbol.
                                        5   Unlock the locking device
                                            Turn the locking switch to the „Unlocked padlock“ symbol or unlock with the hand
                                            crank.
