Flowrite™ 599 Series

SAX Electronic Valve Actuator

Non-spring Return, 24 Vac,

3-Position Control

Siemens Industry, Inc.

Description The Flowrite™ 599 Series SAX Non-spring Return (NSR), Electronic Valve Actuator

requires a 24 Vac supply and receives a 3-position control signal to control a valve.

This actuator is designed to work with Flowrite 599 Series 2-way and 3-way valves with

3/4-inch (20 mm) stroke.

Features •24 Vac/Vdc operating voltage

•Direct-coupled installation requires no special tools or adjustments

•Visual stroke indication

•Manual override

•Overload and stall protection

•Optional functions with auxiliary switches, potentiometer, and stem heater

•Maintenance-free

Application These electronic actuators are designed to be used with Flowrite 599 Series valves

with 3/4-inch (20 mm) stroke in hot and chilled water and steam service applications in

closed loop HVAC systems. They are particularly recommended for installations

requiring quick response and good rangeability.

Potentiometer

ASZ7.5/..

Potentiometer ASZ7.5/.. (1000 , 200 , 135 ) delivers an ohmic value to the

controller giving the exact position of the actuator (continuous position feedback).

Stem Heating Element

ASZ6.6

Stem heating element ASZ6.6 prevents the formation of ice on the stem when the

medium temperature drops below 32°F (0°C). It is suited for universal use with valves

having a stem or spindle diameter of 10 or 14 mm.

Weather shield

ASK39.1

Weather Shield ASK39.1 protects the actuator when installed outdoors. Provides NEMA

3R protection.

Operation The actuator accepts a 24 Vac control signal to Y1, which causes the actuator’s stem

retainer to move toward the valve (extend). A 24 Vac control signal to Y2 causes the

actuator’s stem retainer to move toward the actuator (retract). The stroke travel is

proportional to the length of time the signal is applied.

When power is turned off or in the event of a power failure, the actuator maintains its

position.

In the 3-position (floating) actuators, deviation occurs (See Figure 1):

•after several positioning signals Y1 and Y2 in the same direction since the stroke

movement starts with a delay of 50 ms.

•when positioning signals Y1 and Y2 are active for less than 50 ms since the stroke

movement cannot be made in that case.

Manual Override

Automatic mode

When the motor drives the manual adjuster turns. In Automatic Mode, the manual

adjuster is used for indication of travel. If the manual adjuster is held firm in this mode,

there is no transmission of power to the gear train.

Manual operation

When pushing the manual adjuster down (1), it engages and the actuator can be

manually operated.

When turning the manual adjuster in a clockwise/counterclockwise direction (2), the

actuator’s stem extends/retracts.

An overload protection prevents damage to the manual adjuster.

Setting the position

When the black slide switch is pushed out, the manual adjuster remains engaged.

When in this mode, do not turn the manual adjuster.

Disengaging the setting

When the black slide switch is pushed back in, and the manual adjuster is not pressed

down, the manual adjuster returns to Automatic Mode.

Mounting and

Installation

Indoor or Outdoor Use1

1) Only in connection with Weather Shield ASK39.1 for NEMA 3R protection.

Figure 2. Acceptable Mounting Positions.

The vertical position is the recommended position for mounting. Figure 2 shows the

acceptable mounting positions.

Allow 8 inches (200 mm) above and on the wiring side of the actuator, and four inches

(100 mm) on all other sides of the actuator. This service envelope is the minimum

space required to access and service the actuator. See Dimensions for actuator

dimensions and the recommended service envelope.

Start-Up Check the wiring for proper connections.

NOTE: The valve body assembly determines the complete assembly action.

Normally Closed Valve Y1 control signal extends the actuator (0 to 1): Valve opens.

Y2 control signal retracts the actuator (1 to 0): Valve closes.

Normally Open Valve Y1 control signal extends the actuator (0 to 1): Valve closes.

Y2 control signal retracts the actuator (1 to 0): Valve opens.

Three-Way Valve Y1 control signal extends the actuator (0 to 1): Valve opens between Ports A and AB

(through port).

Y2 control signal retracts the actuator (1 to 0): Valve opens between Ports B and AB

(bypass port)

Wiring Do not use auto transformers. Use earth ground isolating step-down Class 2 power

supplies.

Determine supply transformer rating by summing total VA of all actuators used.

The maximum rating for Class 2 step-down transformer is 100 VA. It is recommended

that no more than 10 actuators are powered by one transformer.
