MANUAL
Pneumatic actuator - AL 77-200

Type and design


DA = Double Acting. Actuator with pneumatic operation in both
directions.
SR = Spring Return. Actuator with spring return.
Size 210, 230, 250 and 270 have 1 piston.
Size 220, 240, 260, 265 and 280 have 2 pistons.

Operating medium
If the operating medium is instrument air, it shall be dust and oil-free.
Accepted operating medium: Non-dangerous fluids (group 2 accor- DA - double acting
ding to directive 97/23/EC). The dew point shall be equal to –20°C or,
at least, 10°C below the ambient temperature. The maximum particle
size must not exceed 40 μm. The exhaust air must pass through a
filter silencer before it is let out into the workshop.

The application of the Scotch Yoke


construction
The Scotch Yoke of the AL 77-200 actuators has canted slots. Thus SR - single acting (spring return)
the actuator can be given different function depending on how the
pistons are mounted in the actuator. The pistons are mounted ac-
cording to Fig.1, page 2, or Fig.1a, in order to achieve the following
functions.
According to Fig.1:
DA-Actuator with adjustable closed valve position (clockwise end of
travel).
SRF-Actuator with spring opening (counter clockwise direction),
adjustable “closed” valve position (clockwise end of travel). WARNING!
According to Fig.1a: All manual operations must be carried out with a vented actuator.
DAAO-Actuator with adjustable open valve position (counter clock-
wise end of travel).
SR-Actuator with spring closing (clockwise direction), adjustable Installation and adjustment

All types of actuators can be mounted in various positions, e.y. verti-

MANUAL
Pneumatic actuator - AL 77-200

Specific condition of use


Actuators intended to be used in hazardous areas are limited in accordance with the Ex marking on actuator sticker. Avoid placing actuator in
direct sunlight, due to the risk of increased temperature. Especially for actuator in hazardous areas.
The temperature of the actuator control medium shall be the same as the ambient temperature in hazardous areas.
If actuator is used on equipment with heavy dynamic parts without built in mechanical stop, the energy transmitted to the actuator has to be
considered. If used in hazardous areas the system must be in consideration with respect to the limitations for impact energy according to valid
Ex standards.
Mechanical generated spark, avoid any accidental impact on the equipment or friction in the equipment parts containing light metals.
The actuator shall not have any dust layers during its normal operation and expected malfunction
Operating medium, see page 1.
For SR actuators, filter-dust excluder IP6X must be mounted for the venting side of the actuator, either in the venting port or in the direct
mounted solenoid valves venting port.

Note
Dust and debris accumulated on the actuator will slow down its cooling and contribute to increase of its external temperature.

Prevent electrostatic discharge


Do not polish/rub nonmetallic surface with a dry cloth. The tools and the cleaning procedures must not produce sparks or crate adverse condi-
tion in the environment during maintenance operations, so as to prevent potential explosion hazards. Prevent electrostatic charges in potentially
explosive areas.

Electrostatic risk
There is a potential electrostatic charging hazard associated with nonconductive paint and therefore actuator must only be cleaned with a damp
cloth.
Prevent electrostatic charges in potentially explosive areas – do not polish/rub nonconductive surfaces with a dry cloth, the operator’s clothes
must not be electrostatically charged. The tools and cleaning procedures must not produce sparks or create adverse conditions in the environ-
ment during maintenance operations, so as to prevent potential explosion hazards. The user must ensure that the operating environment and
any materials surrounding the actuator cannot lead to a reduction in the safe use of, or the protection afforded by, the actuator.
Where appropriate the user must ensure the actuator is suitably protected against its operating environment.
The user must plan a regular equipment surface cleaning maintenance for example with a damp cloth every 6 month as minimum, recommen-
ded due to the dustiness of the environment, if possible decrease the cleaning frequency.

Note!
When actuator is equipped with manual override M1 max ambient temperature 70°C is allowed.

Lubrication
AL 77 actuators are permanently lubricated, and additional lubrication is normally not required. Howe-
ver, during frequent operation and heavy load it’s recommended to use oil mist lubrication or regrease
once every year / or 100 000 cycles whatever appears first.
For oil mist lubrication is a mineral oil type ISO VG32 according to DIN 51524HLP recommended. Oil
mist lubricator should be set at lowest possible value that allows effective lubrication of the actuator.
Commenced oil mist lubrication must continue.
To regrease actuator, follow the instruction “Service of RC210-280” page 4.
Note! If external accessories like pneumatic or electropneu-matic positioner etc. is mounted to the
actuator, check the accessories data sheet if oil mist is allowed.

Quick actuator
Q.. actuator is used there faster operating time is requested. One quick version is the semi quick that has enlarged holes in the connection
ports for the solenoid valve. The version with larger connections, has extra holes in cylinder, endplates or spring house depending on actuator
function, see figure below.

* Only when extra quick execution is needed
** All venting ports shall be equipped with filter
plug, IP6X approved filter-dust excluder if
actuator is used in hazardous area.

Dimension, thread type and number of hole for medium connection can be found on the Q actuator sticker.

Hydraulic actuator
Hydraulic actuators has venting nipples on the actuator. The venting nipples may be placed in different positions depending on actuator moun-
ting orientation. For venting of the pressurized actuator, use PPE and protect the surroundings from spillage.

For opening and closing of the venting nipples, use the supplied key.
Example for venting nipple positions.
