A SPRING RETURN electric actuator designed for load requirements up to 17150”lbs. The actuator comes standard with two auxiliary switches (Form
C), an internal low power heater, a NEMA 4X environmental rating, and in 120/230VAC or 24VAC/DC supply voltages. The PC Series mechanical
connections utilize an ISO5211 mounting system, size F12 with an 8 point 27mm female drive. The PC Series is offered in two different control modes....
On/Off (2 position control) and Proportional (modulating control). Application requirements will dictate whether to utilize a CW (clockwise spring return)
or CCW (counter-clockwise spring return) model.

Theory of Operation
While power is present, the actuator will respond to drive control signals depending on the model chosen. A two position unit will drive until it reaches the
full end of travel setting opposite the spring return direction. A motor brake unit is utilized to HOLD the actuator in position until commanded to move OR
a loss of supply voltage. If power is lost or removed at any time, the brake is released and the mechanical spring mechanism returns the actuator to it’s
normal (unloaded) position. Once the spring mechanism has been released, the actuator will not drive under power again until a) the unit has reached
it’s fail stop (unloaded) position, b) power has been restored to the actuator.

The following procedure is to be followed for set-up, calibration, testing and use of the PC-CCW...2 Series Spring Return
quarter-turn electric actuators. Each unit is shipped from the factory with initial calibration of mechanical stops, cams
and switches completed. However, these are general settings and serve as a starting point for proper calibration of the
actuator in its’ real-world application
This actuator has been
factory calibrated
to
0
operate between 0 and
900. Most quarter-turn
products will not require
recalibration of these
settings.

3. Mount the actuator to the valve or damper to be actuated. Remember, the
actuator is shipped in the spring return (unloaded) position. When viewed from
ABOVE the actuator, the spring CCW units spring closed in a CCW direction.
Make sure your valve or damper are in their CORRECT FAIL position before
mounting the actuator to them.
Refer to step 5
4. Once the two components are bolted together, apply power to the actuator
(referencing page 2 of this manual) and drive the actuator to the FULLY WOUND
position. Then remove power to allow the spring return system to drive the
device back to the fail position.
Warning: Make NO adjustments to this device until you have contacted
the factory (352-544-8436) for assistance. Damage to product as a result of
incorrect cam and/or mechanical adjustments will NOT be covered under
warranty!
Refer to step 5
5. If it is determined that the end-stop position is not correctly aligned, it will
be necessary to ADJUST the mechanical END STOP. To do this, remove the
adjustment housing cover using a 6mm hex key. There will be an adjustment
nut and a lock nut inside the housing. Loosen the lock nut using a 30mm hex
wrench, and while holding the nut, use a 23mm open end wrench to turn the
STOP ASSEMBLY. (CW to move the end stop more towards the FULLY WOUND
direction, or CCW to move the end stop further AWAY from the FULLY WOUND
direction). Do NOT turn the stop more than 4 turns in either direction!
6. Tighten the 30mm locknut to secure the adjustment. Replace the cover.
Refer to step 6
FM12_PC CCW XXX2_Ver A_050812
7. It will now be necessary to re-adjust the electrical travel cam to coincide
with the new mechanical stop adjustment made in the steps above. With NO
POWER APPLIED to the actuator, use a 2.5mm hex key to loosen the #2 cam
(RED) set screw. Once it is free, rotate the hex key to the RIGHT a few degrees
to reset the switch roller arm. Then snug the set screw up against the camshaft
(CW) until slight pressure is felt. Then SLOWLY rotate the hex key pushing the
cam to the LEFT until you hear the “click” on the second switch indicating that
correct adjustment has been achieved. Tighten the cam set screw.
NOTE: Incorrectly adjusted cams will prevent the actuator from running under
power.
Refer to step 7

8. Apply power to terminals 1 & 3 to drive the actuator approximately 20 degrees
CW. Remove power to let the spring return system drive back to the new end
adjustment. Check the setting and repeat from step 5 if necessary.
Refer to step 10
9. Again apply power to terminals 1 & 3 to drive the actuator to the FULLY
WOUND position. The actuator will stop and HOLD when it reaches it’s end of
travel. DO NOT attempt to adjust the CW end of travel unless it is absolutley
necessary. This can ONLY be done with power applied. If you remove power, the
actuator will spring closed, making it impossible to make the adjustment. If you
move the cam too far to the LEFT, the motor will drive the geartrain into the spring
stops. This will DAMAGE the spring system. USE EXTREME CAUTION IF
ADJUSTMENT IS NEEDED.
10. If the open STOP point is incorrect, the #1 cam (GREEN) must be adjusted.
Use a 2.5mm hex key to loosen the cam set screw. SLOWLY rotate the hex
key pushing the cam to the LEFT to drive FURTHER CW, or to the RIGHT to
drive LESS CW. Do NOT rotate the GREEN cam more than 3 degrees to the
LEFT...Serious Damage to the actuator will result if the motor is allowed to
drive the gear train into the mechanical stop!!
10. Tighten the cam set screw.
Refer to step 13
13. The fourth cam (RED) is the CLOSED auxiliary switch adjustment. Spring
return the actuator to its CLOSED position. Then use a 2.5mm hex key to free up
the cam set screw. Once it is free, rotate the hex key to the RIGHT a few degrees
to reset the switch roller arm. Then snug the set screw up against the camshaft
(CW) until slight pressure is felt. Then SLOWLY rotate the hex key and cam to
the LEFT until you hear the “click” on the fourth switch. Continue to rotate the
cam between 3 and 5 degrees to the LEFT to make sure the auxiliary cam switch
changes state before the actuator reaches its end of travel electrically. Tighten
the cam set screw.
NOTE, THIS ACTUATOR MUST HAVE THE EMT FITTINGS WATER TIGHT WITH CONDUIT
DRAINAGE INSTALLED AND POWER SUPPLIED TO UNIT TO KEEP THE HEATER WARM
AT THE TIME OF INSTALLATION . This unit should NOT be stored outside unless it is
powered up. When this unit is NOT powered up, it should be stored in a clean, dry
environment at all times.
Sequence of Operation:
(reference the wiring diagram on Page 2 for LD location on PCB)
Upon power-up, LD1 & LD3 will be ON for 1 second. After 1 second, LD3 will turn OFF, LD1 & LD2 will be ON and the
motor will drive until it reaches it’s fully wound position whereupon the motor brake will engage. At that point, LD2 will turn
OFF, and LD1 & LD3 will be ON and will remain ON until there is a power failure (PF). Upon PF, the brake will release
and the unit will spring closed. If the PF clears BEFORE the actuator fully spring returns, LD1 & LD4 will be ON until
the actuator reaches FULL spring return, at which time the unit repeats a standard power-up sequence. IF the manual
override (if so equipped) is used to position the actuator during a PF, upon return of POWER, LD1& LD4 will be ON and
will remain ON until the handwheel is returned to the FULL spring return position.

Refer to step 12
12. The THIRD cam (GREEN) is the OPEN auxiliary switch adjustment. Drive the
actuator to its OPEN position. Then use a 2.5mm hex key to free up the cam set
screw. Once it is free, rotate the hex key to the LEFT a few degrees to reset the
switch roller arm. Then snug the set screw up against the camshaft (CW) until
slight pressure is felt. Then SLOWLY rotate the hex key to the RIGHT until you
hear the “click” on the third switch. Continue to rotate the cam between 3 and 5
degrees to the RIGHT to make sure the auxiliary cam switch changes state before
the actuator reaches its end of travel electrically. Tighten the cam set screw.
Application Notes:
1. These actuators are designed to be used in either a horizontal or upright position. Do NOT mount the actuator with the top below a horizontal
position.
2. When installing conduit, use proper techniques for entry into the actuator. Use drip loops to prevent conduit condensate from entering the actuator.
3. Both NPT conduit ports MUST use proper equipment to protect the NEMA 4x integrity of the housing.
4. The internal heater is to be used in ALL applications.
5. Do NOT install the actuator outdoors or in humid environments unless it is powered up and the heater is functioning.
6. Use proper wire size to prevent actuator failure (see chart below for proper wire sizing).
7. Mechanical travel stops are factory calibrated for 90 degree operation. These stops are NOT designed to adjust mechanical rotation by more than
+/- 3 degrees.
