ALE Series Stroke Stop and Stroke Switch
Mechanical position-limiting
Stroke Stop and Stroke Switch
  • Rotate it to the wholly-open position with handle
  • Loosen tighten-nut and rotate regulation screw in order to touch the mechanical
  • link-stopper,then, rotate screw or semi-circle in anticlockwise direction for tightening nut.
  • Using same method, operator could regulate mechanical link-stopper at wholly-closed position.
Note: the mechanical position-limiting should lag behind the electric limiting, or else,it would lead to heating of electric machine.

  • The resistance value of potentiometer is 1 K¦¸£¬5 K¦¸
  • Using handle to rotate valve to wholly-closed position
  • Loosen screw of opening-gear and rotate opening gear for regulating potentiometer
  • Using universal-meter to measure resistance value between 4 and 5 wiring terminals, and make the resistance value achieve 5¦¸, tighten opening gear fixing screw.(if the seven-line connector of intelligent type are connected, please measure the resistance between RV and RS jacks)
Note: operator also could loosen potentiometer for regulation, however, in case of being fixed, operator should take notice of the stitch closure between gears of potentiometer and opening, which can¡¯t be too large or small, or else, it would directly affect the complete-set precision of execution device. Note: the mechanical position-limiting should lag behind the electric limiting, or else,it would lead to heating of electric machine.

Operation Principle for Stroke Stop and Stroke Switch
The system makes computation between input signals(4¡«20mA DC) and position signals, then turns the motor in direction to balance them, and stops the motor when they are balanced. The motor torque is transmitted through the worm structure to the actuator shaft. Rotation direction (direct or reverse) is selectable at the setting switch. The backlash revision type potentiometer detects and feedbacks the shaft positions to the control pack. The system always controls shaft position at the correlated rates with input signals.

Installation Conditions for Stroke Stop and Stroke Switch
Cautions on indoor installation
  • Avoid a hazardous place, as this is not an explosion-proof type
  • Cover whole the unit, when installing the unit in a place with water or material splashes
  • It is recommendable to reserve a space for manual maintenance work. (Depends on installation conditions.)

Caution on outdoor installation
  • To avoid rainwater or direct sunlight, it is necessary to cover or shade whole the unit.(this concerns temperature rise in the unit, and anti-climate property of seals used.)
  • It is recommendable to reserve a space for manual maintenance work .(depends on installation conditions)
Note: the shining of sunshine outdoor would lead to high-temperature which accelerates ageing of components, even losing effectiveness; the rain would accelerate aging of rubber-pad, moreover, the product will be damaged if failing in waterproof conduction.

Temperature Conditions for Stroke Stop and Stroke Switch
*Ambient temperature

Ambient temperature range: -30¡æ¡«+60¡æ Note: for use under negative temperature, space heater to prevent condensation is available.

*Fluid temperature
  • It is occasional that if the actuator is applied to a high temperature fluid line, the unit may overheat by transmission of line heat. In such a case, use radiation type bracket and couplings are available at option.
  • Standard bracket and couplings: fluid temperature max.65¡æ
  • Radiation type bracket and couplings: fluid temperature over 65¡æ

Maintenance and Inspection for Stroke Stop and Stroke Switch
*Lubrication

The unit is lubricated with long life grease before shipment, and in principle it does not require re-lubrication after shipment.

*Inspection

When starting operation after a long period of rest, make the following confirmation
  • Cut power off, manually drive the unit and confirm that it moves smoothly without eccentricity.
  • Remove the body covers, and check that there is no condensation inside, and wiring is proper. After inspection is over, screw up all the covers sufficiently. Insufficient screwing may cause water ingress and troubles.
