SPECIFICATIONS FOR MODEL U ACTUATOR
AUTOMATIC CONTROL FOR CYLINDER VALVES
| Click here to download Specifications sheet in PDF format |
OPERATION
The
Model U is designed to easily mount on 150# cylinders when dispensers,
yokes, or other hardware are already installed on the valve. This actuator
has the digital indicator, gearmotor, potentiometer, leak detector and
pushbuttons in one enclosure. All other components are included in the
Remote Control Panel (RCP). The Model U is also available for mounting
to the 2000# containers.
The system includes a battery operated actuator with electric motor that rotates the valve stem toward open or closed position for alignment, tests, and remote operation. The actuator is designed to mount without interfering with or requiring yokes or additional adaptors for dispensers or discharging hardware. The motor, gears, and controls are assembled as one unit.
CAPABILITIES
- Battery operated with automatic charger
- Optional integral leak detection for automatic shutdown
- Remote control by leak detector, panic button, or other digital signals such as PLC or computer
- Easy to mount or dismount to valve
- Can be used on chlorine and sulfur dioxide 150#-cylinders or ton containers
- Can be part of an automatic changeover system to permit only one container in service at a time
- Eliminates the need for scrubbers in certain applications per the Uniform Fire Code
FEATURES
The system includes a remote power supply enclosure for trickle charge of the SLA batteries. Engaging the actuator can be accomplished by tilting the actuator, resting actuator on valve and repositioning to the same plane as the valve stem. Monitor and controls are accomplished with a microprocessor and integral LED displays for CLOSED, ALIGN, and OPEN. The LED display enables the operator to easily read the condition when mounted outdoors with bright sunlight. Programming is accomplished through an integral keypad. Valve position is transmitted to the microprocessor from a direct-coupled potentiometer and displayed in Degrees Open.
ADDITIONAL INFO
Inputs for remote control can include "open", "close", and "latch close". Outputs for remote indication can include "valve open", "valve closed", "failure or battery", and "leak".
For information on actuators that open and close ton cylinders refer to Specification Model 2000C.

| *NOTE 1 | The term "Latched Closed" represents the action of the actuator after receiving a remote contact closure to "close-all". The actuator closes the valve and will not respond to other signals until an acknowledgement is made on the actuator keypad. |
| *NOTE 2 | Integral leak detector is required for remote open option |
| *NOTE 3 | Shielded cable furnished (30') |
| *NOTE 4 | Spares must be ordered separately and may include: |
| Part # LD001 - Chlorine Sensor, 100 PPM | |
| Part # LD003 - Sulfur dioxide Sensor, 100 PPM | |
| Part # BA012-5 (5 Amp) or BA012-7 (7 Amp) SLA Battery | |
| Part # FS001 - Fuse (Package of 5) | |
| *NOTE 5 | When wired inputs and outputs are required, select D=1 and E=1. |
| *NOTE 6 | The remote control panel includes output relay for remote alarm signal, power light, and ALL-CLOSE pushbutton. |
| EXAMPLE: | The number "Model U150-21111" represents a system with two actuators and one remote control panel for two actuators. The system provides three inputs, four outputs, and leak detection for each actuator. In addition, one remote ALL-CLOSE pushbutton box is furnished. |
