The translation of the movement is achieved via the piston system 1, the rollers 2, the yoke 3 and the shaft. 4.
The translatory movement of the pistons 1 generated by the control pressure results in a sliding movement of the rollers 2 in the
grooves of the yoke 3.
The yoke 3 then rotates the shaft 4 together with the valve stem.
The control pressure both actuates the valve and compresses the energy storage mechanism (spring cartridges).
On loss of control pressure, the valve is moved to fail-safe position by the spring-return action.

Integral manual override – DYNACTAIR NGV

The design of this manual override is based on the DYNACTAIR NG pneumatic actuator.
The integral manual override comprises a steel handwheel for manual actuation in emergencies.
No separate manual override is required, reducing both dimensions and weight.
The actuator can be locked in open or closed position. It is irreversible.
Like RMD manual gearboxes, the manual override must not be operated unless the control air has been completely evacuated
from the actuator.

accessible from outside.
The manual override buttons can be locked.
How to use the manual override
To avoid any interference with the pilot valves' electrical A - Press the manual override button
commands, it is recommended that the manual override only
B - Lock it in this position by turning it 90°
be used when the control unit is not energised.

Position signalling function

Two position signalling options are available for AMTRONIC:
- Via mechanical limit switches, Crouzet
- Via proximity sensors, IFM

A special feature of the AMTRONIC is that it can be fitted with limit switches or proximity sensors from other manufacturers
according to the customer's specification.
Thanks to 20 years of experience in valve automation, a wide range of partner products is available from IFM, P&F,
Télémécanique, etc.
Should customer processes require other limit switches or proximity sensors, please consult us.

Field bus communication version

Field bus communication is ensured by simply integrating an electronic printed circuit board.
A field bus system makes the wiring of control units for open/close applications straightforward and helps to reduce installation
costs.
The AMTRONIC is compatible with the Profibus DP and AS-i field bus systems.

INSTRUCTION MANUAL
DYNACTAIR – NG1 to NG80

1) GENERAL FEATURES

KSB manufacture a wide range of part turn pneumatic actuators for valve remote control.
The actuators are available on Double Acting “ACTAIR NG” and Spring Return “DYNACTAIR NG” versions.

- The principle of the actuator application is to open and close the connected valve, without the manual
operation with lever or hand wheel, by means of an electric-pneumatic connection on remote control.

The maintenance should be done by KSB trained personnel only.

This instruction manual contains important information regarding the KSB pneumatic actuator operation,
installation, maintenance and storage.
Please read carefully before installation and keep it in a safe place for further reference.

2) WORKING CONDITIONS

a) Construction.
Standard actuators are suitable for indoor and outdoor installation.
The laser marking or a printed label on the actuator body gives the actuator technical characteristics: type, size,
operating pressure, output torque, operating temperature, flange connection, product code and production date.
(See drawing pag.4).

b) Motive energy
The operating media should be dry and filtered compressed air not necessarily lubricated or inert gases
compatible with internal actuator parts and lubricants.
The operating medium shall have a dew point equal to – 20 °C or, to be at least, 10 °C below the ambient
temperature (ISO 8573-1, Class 3).
The maximum particle size shall not exceed 40 μm (ISO 8573-1, Class 5).

c) Supply operating media pressure.

The maximum supply pressure is 8,4 bar (120 psi)

3) OPERATION AND ROTATION DIRECTION

Double Acting.
The pistons of standard ACTAIR NG actuators are mounted as shown below. This provides the highest torque at the valve
start opening for valve clockwise to close. The pistons are then in their outermost position and the end travel stops can
be fine adjusted.

2 4

The port 2 is in connection with the cylinder side chambers, supplying the pressurized air in port 2 the standard Double
Acting actuator drive shaft rotates counter clockwise to open , while the port 4 is in connection with the intermediate
chamber and when pressurized the drive shaft rotates clockwise to close.

Single Acting, Spring Return fail to Close.

The pistons of standard DYNACTAIR NG actuators are mounted as shown below. Although spring force is diminished, the
geometry of the mechanism provides a greater torque at the end of the spring stroke. When the actuator is in the valve
open position, and the springs are fully compressed, the end of travel stops can be fine adjusted.
Caution. In order to avoid suction of dust or dirt inside of the actuator chambers during the spring action, install a
regulator-filter on the port 2.

5) INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The principle of the actuator application is to open and close the connected part turn valve installed in a plant, without the
manual operation, by remote control by means of an electric-pneumatic connection.
The normal sizing of actuators require a 20%-30% safety margin over the valve breakaway torque to handle valves.

Plant design, chemical and physical flow characteristics and environmental condition could increase the safety factor to
apply to actuator sizing. Before performing any installation operation, verify the actuator and valve conditions according to
the safety notice above described.
Moreover the utmost clearness is required during valve installation of the air supply connection to the actuator. All the
connection parts such as reductions, joints, plates, brackets and equipment must be clean and dirty free.
-Before assembling the actuator onto the valve make sure that both items are correctly oriented, depending upon which
direction of rotation is required.
- Before starting the actuator installation, should be done a visual actuator control to verify its physical condition after
transportation and storage.
- Control trough the shaft slot or caps the actuator position
- Read carefully the KSB instruction sheet included in the cardboard box
- Read the actuator limits and performances marked on the actuator body to verify its suitability
- Remove the protection label stickers from the ports

NOTA : Representation in arrangement M

A) -Direct mounting.
Valve actuator Direct mounting is the best solution to avoid plays between valve stem and actuator drive shaft. For a direct
mounting you should have the same standard flange connection on valve and actuator as well as the valve stem dimensions
that fit perfectly with the actuator drive. Before installation please verify that the actuator and valve flange ISO connections
are the same size; verify that the valve stem size and shape is suitable for direct mounting, if necessary use a drive
reduction.
Fit the valve stem into the actuator drive shaft connection, and bolt together the two ISO flanges.

B) -Mounting plate connection.

In case direct mounting is not possible cause of little differences in actuator/valve flanges or drives sizes, mounting plate’s
adapters with suitable flanges dimensions allows an easy connection living a sufficient space for the valve/actuator drive
adapter.

C) -Bracket & Joint connection.

Wherever for technical reason the plant installation requires a distance between actuator and valve, or the valve flange
and/or stem are not standard, and in any case, where the valve/actuator connection could not be possible, a bracket and
joint is the right answer. The Bracket is a steel bridge that allows to connect the valve with is own flange connection in one
side and with the suitable actuator connection onto the opposite side, living a space in between for a steel joint connection.
The joint allows a drive connection between the actuator and the valve stem indispensable in case of stem key drive and
flat head.
Chose the suitable flange bracket and the required joint connections to fix the actuator onto the valve very tight without
any plays.
KSB actuator with its draining channels system on the flange connection pattern is especially designed for valve direct mounting.
This system allows to drop away any possible flow coming from the valve stem that with valve/actuator direct mounting could
damage the actuator.

3) OPERATION AND ROTATION DIRECTION

Double Acting (ACTAIR NG).

The pistons of standard ACTAIR NG actuators are mounted as shown below. This provides the highest torque at the valve start
opening for valve clockwise to close. Both limit positions of the pistons travel can be fine adjusted (see pg10).

The port 2 is in connection with the cylinder side chambers, supplying the pressurised air in port 2 the standard Double
Acting actuator drive shaft rotates counter clockwise to open , while the port 4 is in connection with the intermediate chamber
and when pressurised the drive shaft rotates clockwise to close.

Page 5 of 48

INSTRUCTION MANUAL
DYNACTAIR – NG120 to NG350

Single Acting (DYNACTAIR NG), Spring Return fail to Close.

The pistons of standard DYNACTAIR NG actuators are mounted as shown below. Although spring force is diminished, the
geometry of the mechanism provides a greater torque at the end of the spring stroke. Both limit positions of the pistons travel
can be fine adjusted (see page 10).
Caution. In order to avoid suction of dust or dirt inside of the actuator chambers during the spring action, install a regulator-filter
on the port 2.

The port 4 is in connection with the intermediate chamber and when pressurized the drive shaft rotate counter clockwise to
open.

Important:
Special Double Acting version and Spring Return fail to open actuators with different piston positions have different rotation
to close and to open: please follow their special instructions.

4) SAFETY NOTICE

- The actuator should be used within the pressure mentioned limits only, operating the actuator over the pressure limit will
damage the internal actuator parts.
- Operating the actuator over or under the temperature limits will damage the internal and external parts.
- Operating the actuator in corrosive environments without the required external protection will damage the actuator.
-Before installation, service or maintenance verify that the actuator is not pressurised, disconnect the air lines and make sure
that the air ports are vented
- Do not remove the end caps while the actuator is installed in the line, or while the actuator is under pressure.
- Do not disassemble the caps end spring cartridge, this operation should be done by KSB trained personnel only, this
operation could causes personal injury.
- Before mounting the actuator onto the valve make sure that the valve rotation is according with the actuator operating
rotation, and the upper shaft slot orientation is also correct.
- Before installing the actuated valve do cycling test for a while to ensure the correct mechanical mounting and actuator/valve
operations.
- The actuator installation shall be done according to and in observance with the local and national laws regulation.

KSB cannot be responsible for any damage to people, animals or things due to an improper use of the
product.

5) INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The principle of the actuator application is to open and close the connected part turn valve installed in a plant, without the
manual operation, by remote control by means of an electric-pneumatic connection.
The normal sizing of actuators require a 20%-30% safety margin over the valve breakaway torque to handle valves.
Plant design, chemical and physical flow characteristics and environmental condition could increase the safety factor to apply
to actuator sizing.

To lift the actuator using the right belts, see drawing below

Page 8 of 48
 ACTAIR – NG240 to NG700
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
DYNACTAIR – NG120 to NG350

Before performing any installation operation, verify the actuator and valve conditions according to the safety notice above
described.
Moreover the utmost clearness is required during valve installation of the air supply connection to the actuator. All the
connection parts such as reductions, joints, plates, brackets and equipment must be clean and dirty free.
-Before assembling the actuator onto the valve make sure that both items are correctly oriented, depending upon which
direction of rotation is required.
- Before starting the actuator installation, should be done a visual actuator control to verify its physical condition after
transportation and storage.
- Control trough the shaft slot or caps the actuator position
- Read carefully the KSB instruction sheet included in the cardboard box
- Read the actuator limits and performances marked on the actuator body to verify its suitability
- Remove the protection label stickers from the ports
Before fitting the actuator on the valve, clean the valve and the actuator from the dust and dirt.
- Verify the valve position, close or open, and the rotation direction.
- Verify the actuator position and rotation according with the valve requirement and operation, especially for Spring Return
installation Fail to Close or Fail to Open.
- Spring Return Fail to Close actuators are always supplied in the close position.
- While Spring Return Fail to Open are always supplied in the open position.

Fig 5.1 – Valve/Actuator assembly:

A) -Direct mounting.
Valve actuator Direct mounting is the best solution to avoid plays between valve stem and actuator drive shaft. For a direct
mounting you should have the same standard flange connection on valve and actuator as well as the valve stem dimensions
that fit perfectly with the actuator drive. Before installation please verify that the actuator and valve flange ISO connections are
the same size; verify that the valve stem size and shape is suitable for direct mounting, if necessary use a drive reduction.
Fit the valve stem into the actuator drive shaft connection, and bolt together the two ISO flanges.

B) -Mounting plate connection.

In case direct mounting is not possible cause of little differences in actuator/valve flanges or drives sizes, mounting plate’s
adapters with suitable flanges dimensions allows an easy connection living a sufficient space for the valve/actuator drive
adapter.

C) -Bracket & Joint connection.

Wherever for technical reason the plant installation requires a distance between actuator and valve, or the valve flange and/or
stem are not standard, and in any case, where the valve/actuator connection could not be possible, a bracket and joint is the
right answer. The Bracket is a steel bridge that allows to connect the valve with is own flange connection in one side and with
the suitable actuator connection onto the opposite side, living a space in between for a steel joint connection. The joint allows
a drive connection between the actuator and the valve stem indispensable in case of stem key drive and flat head.
Chose the suitable flange bracket and the required joint connections to fix the actuator onto the valve very tight without any
plays.
KSB actuator with its draining channels system on the flange connection pattern is especially designed for valve direct mounting.
This system allows to drop away any possible flow coming from the valve stem that with valve/actuator direct mounting could
damage the actuator.

VALVE CLOSE POSITION ADJUSTMENT

The slot without balls on the shaft
shows the position of the valve

0° valve Close
10° stroke adjustment from +5° to -5°
Shaft rotation

1) Before start the adjustement check that the actuator is not pressurized.
2) Supply the compressed air sufficient to move the pistons on sideward position; the valve opens.
3) Unscrew and remove the protection cap (1). Use key 15mm.
4) Rotate the screw (2) clockwise direction for close more angle setting. Use key 15mm.
5) Rotate the screw (2) counter-clockwise direction for less close angle setting. Use key 15mm.
6) When the setting has been carried out cover the adjustment with its protection cap (1) well tight. The cap, thanks
to a special washer keep stop the adjusting screw.
7) Discharge the compressed air in order to close the valve by means of springs and verify the valve clos position.
8) Check the valve setting and if the regulation is not as desired start again from the first operation.

NOTE: The adjustment screw (2) is a double treated left and right directions

That move inward and side ward two steel stops that limit both pistons stroke.

VALVE OPEN POSITION ADJUSTMENT

The slot without balls on the shaft

shows the position of the valve

90° valve Open

10° stroke adjustment from 95° to 85°
Shaft rotation

1) Before start the adjustement check that the actuator is not pressurized.
2) Unscrew the nut (3 and 4).
3) Rotate clockwise direction the adjustment screw (5 an 6) for less open angle setting .
4) Rotate counter-clockwise direction the adjustment screw (5 and 6) for more open angle setting .
NOTE: Both side screws shall be equally rotate to stop together the pistons in the same position.
5) Screw the security nuts (3 and 4) well tight.
6) Supply the motive energy, compressed air, to move the pistons partside.
7) Check the valve setting an if the regulation is not as desired start again from the first operation.
8) After the control of the valve open setting is as desired is important to control that both adjustment screws are
working properly and stop both pistons together as follow.
9) Put the actuator in open position, supplying compressed air lightly to move the pistons partside..
10) Unscrew the security nuts (3 and 4).
11) Chreck that both adjustement screws touch the pistons, if one screws is free means is not against the piston.
12) In case screw the screws lightly until it stop onto the piston.
13) Screw the nuts well tight (3 and 4) to fix the adjustment.
14) Supply the motive energy, compressed air and cycle for few time.
15) Check the valve setting and if the regulation is not desired start again from the first operation.

a) Based on EN ISO 5211.
b) One cycle consists of nominal 90° angular travel in both directions (i.e. 90° to open + 90° to close). For
angular travel other than 90°, the endurance shall be agreed between the purchaser and the
manufacturer/supplier.
c) For thermoplastic actuators the minimum number of cycles shall be 250 000.

Should it be necessary to replace its pistons sealing, this operations must be done by trained people with proper tools, we
recommend to return the actuator to KSB where the actuator will be overhauled and then tested for a correct replacement.
On request KSB will be willing to provide its sealing Kits.

General features
Designed for the automation of ¼ turn valves (butterfly valves, ball valves), the DYNACTAIR series of spring return pneumatic
actuators and their AMTROBOX/AMTRONIC/SMARTRONIC box are involved in all the functions of control and supervision
encountered in all modern processes, and more particularly in communication by fieldbus.

3 kinematics are used for the actuators operation:

-- rack and pinion kinematics for DYNACTAIR 1.5, DYNACTAIR 3, DYNACTAIR 6, DYNACTAIR 12 and DYNACTAIR 25,
-- scotch--yoke kinematics for DYNACTAIR 50 and DYNACTAIR 100,
-- yoke AMRI patented kinematics for DYNACTAIR 200, DYNACTAIR 400 and DYNACTAIR 800.
The mounting interface is in accordance with ISO 5211 standard.
Equipped with an interchangeable insert, they can be easily fitted on different valve shaft (square end, flat end, key).
In standard version, the DYNACTAIR actuators are equipped with a visual pointer and adjustable mechanical travel stops:
-- on closed or on open position for DYNACTAIR 1.5 to 100 (see pages 6 and 7),
-- on closed and on open position for DYNACTAIR 200 to 800.
The actuator is mounted directly or by means of an adaptator on ¼ turn valve plate.

Protection:
They are hose and fine dust proof (protection degree equivalent to IP 65).

Control fluid supply

Air or any neutral gas,filtered, dry or lubricated:
-- filtration: 50 µm,
-- drying: dew point at max. working pressure ≤ 4° C and min. temperature --5° C
If a lubrification is required -- the lubrification increases the actuator life -- the use of a non detergent oil without aggressive additive is
recommended:
-- viscosity 2 to 3° ENGLER at 50° C
-- anhiline point 90° C to 105° C
-- flow 1 to 3 drop for 500 NL/mn.

Safety function
In standard version, the DYNACTAIR actuators are designed to ensure valve closure in case of lack of control fluid
pressure.
On request, valve opening by lack of control fluid is available.
The opening function by lack of control fluid differentiates itself from the closing function by a different mounting of the
kinematics (refer to pages 6 to 9) and by a more or less powerful construction of the energy accumulator (refer to pages 4
and 5).
Due to these differences of construction, the use of a closing function actuator instead of an opening function actuator
(and vice versa) can cause some hazards during operation such as the impossibility to operate the valve or operation in
the wrong direction. For these reasons, it is strongly inadvisable to try to change from one type of actuator to the other.

Output torque (Nm) relating to the control fluid pressure and the safety function
To ensure the safety function (closing or opening) in case of lack of control fluid, the DYNACTAIR spring return pneumatic actuators
are equipped with an energy accumulator.
This energy accumulator consists in:
-- for DYNACTAIR 1.5 to 25 actuators: 2, 3 or 4 precompressed spring cartridges fitted between the pistons, each cartridge including
four helicoidal springs,
-- for DYNACTAIR 50 to 800 actuators: a precompressed spring cartrige fitted at each housing end, ech cartrige including one, two
or three helicoidal springs depending on the requested output torque.

The table below shows the different output torques relating to the control fluid pressure and the quantity of spring cartriges (case of
DYNACTAIR 1.5 to 25) or of the quantity of springs and their position (case of DYNACTAIR 50 to 800).

Actuator selection
Relating to the ¼ turn valve to be operated and it operating torque, the available control fluid pressure and the requested safety
function, it is necessary to take into consideration the following criteria for the actuator selection (type and configuration):

Butterfly valves
Closing function = springs end and air start,
Opening function = springs start and air end.

Ball valves
Whatever the safety function may be, the four criteria must be taken into consideration:
Springs end and air start,
Springs star and air end.

Choose the values for springs and air the nearest possible one another and immediately higher than the operating torque of the
valve to be actuated (consult the manufacturer instructions).
This selection is already defined in the technical leaflets for KSB--AMRI valves: definition of the DYNACTAIR configuration relating
to its safety function and control fluid pressure.

Operation
DYNACTAIR 1.5 to 25: rack and pinion kinematics

The rack and pinion kinematics develop a linear output torque.

The movement of the rack/pistons secured by the control fluid pressure causes a ¼ turn rotation of the pinion integral with the valve
shaft: the pressure ensures at once the valve operation and the compression of the spring cartridges.
The spring cartridges reset the valve in safety position when the pressure is cut--off.

DYNACTAIR 1.5 to 100: declutchable manual override

A manual override using a declutchable gear box may be fitted between the valve mounting
plate and the actuator.
This manual control will override with the pneumatic actuator and can be set in clutched or
declutched positions.

Construction:
-- housing, cover and extension in JL 1040 cast iron,
-- handwheel in welded steel,
-- screw in treated steel,
-- worm in JS 1030 ductile iron,
-- drive shaft, clutch lever, locking pointer, adjustable mechanical travel stops (±5° ) and
external bolting in 13% chromium stainless steel.
For more information, please refer to Manual Override technical leaflet ref 5350.1.

Instructions for override operation

The manual override should only be used under the following recommendations:
- absence of air pressure in the actuator,
- the actuator chambers must be to the open air.

Check the actuator is not under air pressure before use the manual override.

Override clutch
1 – Unlock the unit by pulling the locking pointer ,
2 – Keep the pointer in pulled position and turn the clutch lever to the clutched position,
3 – Release the pointer, it must bolt itself in low position.

Manual emergency control use

4 – Operate the valve by turning the handwheel.
Turns number for a complete operation
DYNACTAIR 1.5 , 3 , 6 and 12: 10 turns
DYNACTAIR 25 and 50 : 12 turns
DYNACTAIR 100 : 13 turns
5 – Bring the emergency control back to its initial position by turning the handwheel in the
opposite direction.

Override declutch
6 – Repeat the clutch operations in the opposite way.

Caution : the clutch lever operation is not allowed when the springs are compressed,
that causes damages to the override. The declutch operation can be done only with
the actuator in safety position, i.e. springs decompressed.
The operation no. 5 must be imperatively done before system declutch.

The actuator can be now pressurized.
