 Cert No.

 Applicable temp.

 Serial No.

 Manufactured YY-MM

 Cable entry size

 Warning letter

 [Maker address --- 18 r0]

4.2. Pre-Installation for use in potentially explosive atmosphere

Installation, commissioning, maintenance, repairs and modification work must only be performed by

qualified personnel with extensive knowledge on how to work on explosion-proof electrical equipment.

Warning : Read this installation and maintenance manual carefully and completely before

attempting to install, operate, or troubleshoot the HKC product

4.2.1. Cable Connection

① Sealing devices must be used and shall be fitted directly at enclosure wall when using conduit.

② Cable glands shall be suitable for the environment and shall be certified as flameproof if used in Zone 1

application of IECEx scheme in order to connect outside electric wire.

③ Cable glands and conduit to be installed minimum 8 full threads and the length of thread is minimum

8mm.

④ “Warning” : Please be sure that user should select the appropriate cable glands and minimum 2SQ of

wire for fear that the proper using temperature of cable entry and wire way exceed 70 ℃ or the

blanching point is over 80 ℃.

⑤ When cable entries or conduit entries are not used, user or installer shall close by certified blanking

elements(stopping plugs) so that the flameproof properties of the enclosure are maintained.

4.2.2. Groundings

① Always ground the enclosure in accordance with local electric codes. The most effective enclosure

grounding method is a direct connection to earth ground with minimal impedance. Methods for

grounding the enclosure include:

Internal ground connection : The internal ground is located inside the body .

External ground connection : The ground bracket is located on the side of body.

(Min 2SQ wire required)

4.2.3. Special Condition for safe use (“X” marking)

① Electrostatic discharge from window(over 1GΩ) may cause the ignition on the explosive gas atmosphere.

By adapting the conducting window bolts make reduce the risk from electrostatic discharge.

② Before installation or maintenance products, shut off incoming power and grounding should be

connected.

③ The window must only be cleaned with a damp cloth in order to avoid ignition hazard caused by static

electricity.

4.3. Initial inspection

4.3.1. When the user receipts the product, inspect the condition of the product and ensure the name plate

comparing with order sheet.

4.3.2. Remove packing wrap or wooden box carefully. Inspect the product for any physical damage that may

have occurred during shipment.

4.3.3. Check the product specification with product ordered. If a wrong product has been shipped,

immediately notify our coordinator.

6.1.1. HKC shall supply a NAMUR VDI/VDE standards’ bracket and a fixing stuff for mounting on actuator.

Brackets are able to applied any type of valves; manual valve, linear valve, pneumatic rotary valve.

① Ensure valve actuator alignment (fully open or closed).

② Place the mounting bracket on a horizontal plane of actuator

③ Tighten the bolts enclosed in a box using a proper tool.

6.2. Mounting limit switch box

Caution ;

Do not attempt to work on limit switch box without first shutting off incoming power

6.2.1. Prior to mounting the limit switch box must be checked for any damage.

6.2.2. Damaged parts must be replaced by original spare parts.

6.2.3. Limit switch boxes are available with a NAMUR shaft that enables direct attachment to actuator pinion

without a coupler. These shafts feature a 4mm wide tang that engages the 4mm slot in NAMUR

actuators.

① Check to be sure the drive slot on the top of the actuator and the shaft of switch box are the same

direction.

② Insert the shaft of switch box carefully into the mounting bracket.

③ Tighten the bolts enclosed in a box using a proper tool.

④ Check the connection of shaft being assembled correctly.

6.3. Cam setting

Note :

Basically, cams shall be set by manufacturer before shipment.

6.3.1. The colour of cams harmonized with position indicator help us to set

the cams easily without wiring diagram. Cams shall be easily set

without tool. APL series cams are splined and can be setting lift up or

push down the cam from gear by hand in a seconds without setting

tools. Self-locking, spring loading make never slip out of adjustment.

6.3.2. Loose the captive cover bolts with an applicable tool. (L-Hex. Wrench

recommended)

6.3.3. Turn the cover counter clockwise to open carefully.

6.3.4. Open cam setting

① Electric power or air supply of valve actuator on to operate the

actuator fully open

② Lift the bottom yellow cam [(optional green)-17 r0] up and rotate it until the switch is activated.

③ And then release it. Cam shall be back into a stable position by itself.

6.3.5. Close cam setting

① Electric power or air supply of valve actuator off to operate the actuator fully close

② Push the upper red cam down and rotate it until the switch is activated.

③ And then release it. Cam shall be back into a stable position by itself.

6.4. Wiring

Danger ; HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE. No electrical power should be connected until all wiring and

limit switch adjustments have been completely.

6.4.1. Open circuit before removing cover, and seal required within 450mm (18 inch) of the enclosure by CSA.

6.4.2. APL limit switch box enclosure feature prewired switches. All user connections are made at a numbered

terminal strip. A wiring diagram, located inside the cover, indicates which terminal numbers correspond to

switch contacts, such as normally open (NO), normally closed (NC), etc. Follow the wiring diagram and

electrical code to connect the switches to your system.

6.4.3. [The APL-4 limit switch box has two cable entries on the body, and is protected with a sticker to protect it

from moisture and foreign matter penetration. User or installer shall be use cable gland that satisfy the

protection grade and connect them through the cable entries.

6.4.4. If the cable entry remains after wiring, it must be strictly closed using a suitable blanking plug. The cable

gland must be applied by installer or user. --- 20 r0]

6.5. Setting Position Transmitter Unit (APL- 4*6)

6.5.1. Potentiometer reads the current position of actuator and transfers a resistance value to a current

position transmitter card. Transmitter indicates the actuator position throughout the stroke by a

4~20mA output signal.

6.5.2. Technical Features

① Power Supply Range 12.5 ~ 37VDC (24V typical)

② Current Signal Output 4~20mA

③ Max. Load Resistance Max. Resistance (ohm) = (Supply voltage – 12.5) / 0.02

④ Potentiometer 0~500 ohm / 10k ohm

⑤ Operating Temperature -20 ~ 60 ℃

⑥ Dimension 40 * 60 * 15

6.5.3. Calibration Potentiometer

① Apply power or air to the actuator to operate fully closed position

② Connect an ohm meter to P1 and P3 resistances, the values shall be approximately 1kΩ.

③ Loosen the shaft gear and connect the ohm meter to P1 and P3 and gently rotate until 80 ~ 120 ohm is

achieved (100ohm preferred). While maintaining the value, tighten a lock screw with a hex wrench.

6.5.4. Calibration Zero Span

Zero span setting has been calibrated by manufacturer. However if re-calibration is required

① Operate an actuator to 50% position and then fully closed position.

② When the actuator is in the fully closed position, adjust the “zero” button on the card until a value of

20mA is achieved.

7. Maintenance

Caution ;

- Shut off incoming power or air supply on the valve actuator before maintenance limit switch box.

- Be sure that the area is clean before disassemble and maintenance limit switch box. Clean all parts and

housing before re-assemble.

- Refer to the part list when ordering replacement or spare parts.

7.1. Maintenance, under normal conditions at six month intervals or 10,000 cycle operation. But when

conditions are more severe, more frequent inspections may be required.

7.1.1. Ensure valve actuator alignment. [If the alignment is not correct, the shaft may be damaged by metallic

fatigue during operation. --- 20 r0]

7.1.2. Ensure wiring is insulated, connected and terminated properly

7.1.3. Ensure all screws are present and tight

7.1.4. Ensure cleanliness of internal electrical devices
