3.2 General
A motor operated valve is actuated by an electric motor together with a gearbox.
The critical actuator parameters are torque and speed. The required torque is normally specified by the
valve vendor. The speed is determined by the required valve opening and closing time.
3.3 Actuator Operation
3.3.1 The actuators shall be normally based on the use of a 3-phase supply of standard voltage and
frequency. Single phase actuators may, however, be used where 3-phase supplies are not available.
3.3.2 The actuator shall be sized to guarantee valve closure within the required time and at the specified
valve differential pressure. The actuator shall develop adequate torque to seat and unseat the valve at
the nominal voltage minus 10%.
The actuator shall develop adequate torque to operate the torque trip switch at the nominal voltage
minus 10%.
3.3.3 The actuator shall be rated for a minimum of 60 operations per hour, where used for isolating duties,
and 1200 operations per hour, where used for modulating control.
3.3.4 Actuators used for isolating duties shall have an average maintenance free life of 10,000 operations.
3.3.5 Actuators shall include a direction correcting circuit to ensure correct motor rotation regardless of the
phase sequence or polarity of the power supply. As an alternative, actuators may be provided with
phase discrimination relays to prevent three phase motor starting either on single phase or with
incorrect phase rotation.
3.3.6 Actuators shall be capable of operating in an ambient temperature of up to 160°F (70°C).
Rev 1 1995
3.3.7 Actuator motors shall be insulated to a minimum of Class F, with a time rating of at least 15 minutes at
a maximum temperature of 104°F (40°C) and at an average load of at least one third of the maximum
valve torque.
3.3.8 The actuator gearing shall be totally enclosed in a lubricated gear case and be suitable for operation at
any angle.
3.3.9 The actuator shall be specified for multi or quarter turn valve operation. If the torque requirement for a
quarter turn actuator exceeds that possible with direct gearing, then a multiple turn actuator together
with a quarter turn gearbox may be used.
3.3.11 The actuator shaft shall include a removable drive coupling suitable for the attachment of the valve
stem. Multi-turn actuators shall comply with ISO 5210, and quarter turn actuators with ISO 5211. The
drive coupling shall be positioned in the base of the actuator to facilitate the use of standard valve stem
lengths.
3.3.12 For rising spindle valves, the actuator output shaft shall be hollow to accept the rising stem.
3.3.13 The actuator shall optionally include a thrust base incorporating lubricated ball or roller thrust bearings.
Torque only actuators may be specified where the thrust is absorbed by the valve itself, e.g. ball and
butterfly valves.
3.3.14 The design shall permit the gearbox to be opened for inspection or the replacement of components
without removing either the valve from the line or the actuator from the valve.
3.3.15 The actuator shall retain the valve stem in a secure position during a fire, and meet the temperature
requirements of API 607.
3.3.16 A handwheel shall be provided for emergency operation of the valve. Clockwise rotation of the
handwheel shall give a closing movement to the valve unless otherwise specified. The handwheel shall
not be driven by the motor.
3.3.17 The handwheel shall be mechanically independent of the motor drive and shall operate even though the
motor and its gearing has failed.
3.3.18 The handwheel shall be engaged by means of a hand/auto selection lever which shall be lockable in
either position. Padlocking in the Hand position shall prevent motor drive whilst padlocking in the
Auto position shall prevent handwheel drive.
3.3.19 It shall be possible to transfer from auto to hand whilst the actuator motor is running. It shall also be
possible to start the actuator motor whilst the selector is set to hand without damage to the actuator.
3.4 Actuator Control and Protection
3.4.1 Unless otherwise specified, the motor contactors (or solid state switches) and control transformer shall
be housed within the actuator body.
3.4.2 The actuator motor shall be protected against mechanical or electrical damage resulting from stalling,
overheating, reverse motor operation or single phase operation.
3.4.3 The actuator shall be protected against mechanical or electrical damage resulting from the
Rev 1 1995
"instantaneous" reversal of the actuator motion.
3.4.4 The actuator shall be equipped with torque operated motor trip switches to protect against the short
term mechanical overloading of the motor. The torque switches shall be adjustable within the range
40% to 100% of the rated torque. The torque switch shall be inhibited during the initial period of the
motor start to allow for the valve "unsticking" torque, or for starting in mid travel against high inertia
loads.
3.4.5 The actuator shall be equipped with two sets of position/torque operated limit switches adjustable over
the range of valve movement. seperate independant auxiliary switches shall be used for:
- Remote valve position indication and interlocking and
- Control of the motor contactors at valve fully open and fully closed positions.
3.4.6 The actuator shall be fitted with a lockable Local/Off/Remote selector switch together with Open,Close
and Stop switches all of which shall be an integral part of the actuator assembly. Local switches to
open, close and stop shall be integral to the actuator. The local stop switch shall override any external
command irrespective of the position of the local/off/remote selector switch.
3.4.7 The actuator shall provide facilities for the external control of the following functions:
- independent open, close and stop with mid travel reversal;

- 2-wire operation from a remote switch e.g. switch close to close valve and switch open to open
valve;
- overriding emergency shutdown to open or close the valve with an option to override the motor
temperature switch;
- external interlocking which shall inhibit valve movement during local or remote operation.
3.4.8 The actuator design shall allow for the external contacts to be latched or momentary, internally or
externally powered.
3.4.9 The actuator shall include local indication of valve position and valve movement either by means of a
digital or mechanical indicator. Local indication of valve movement or extreme position (open and
closed) by local lamp(s) shall be an optional facility.
3.4.10 The actuator shall include the provision for external signals indicating the operation of the actuator
torque or position switches.
3.4.11 The actuator shall optionally be capable of providing a signal giving a continuous indication of valve
position.
3.4.12 The actuator shall be capable of indicating actuator fault conditions.
3.4.13 Anti-condensation heaters may be provided where the environmental conditions so dictate or at the
request of the Owner.
3.5 Fail-safe Actuators
3.5.1 Fail-safe actuators are capable of moving a valve to a safe position (either open or close) even in the
event of a power failure. Such actuators require the use of back-up power sources, usually compressed
air/gas or electric batteries.
3.5.2 Motor operated actuators shall not be specified where valves are required to "fail" to a predetermined
Rev 1 1995
position without the approval of the Owner.
3.5.2 Air/gas operated motors normally operate in the range 80 to 100 psig and a suitable supply, either from
a clean air header or from gas bottles, shall be made available. The air/gas supply capacity shall be
sufficient for at leat a single operation of a valve or valve group.
3.5.3 The air motor shall be mounted on the same shaft as the electric motor.
3.5.4 The system design shall take account of pressure drops in piping and ancillaries such as automatic
lubricators.
3.5.5 Provision shall be made for the automatic lubrication of the air motor (refer to Vendor
recommendations).
3.5.6 Provision shall be made to automatically shut off the supply of air/gas when the valve has fully closed
(or opened).
3.5.7 Actuators of limited torque (normally quarter turn actuators) may be specified to include a low voltage
DC motor instead of an AC motor.
Under normal conditions, the actuators are powered from a standard single or 3-phase supply which is
rectified to provide a DC supply. Following mains power failure, power is derived from a back-up DC
supply or built in batteries.
3.6 Enclosure
3.6.1 All mtor operated actuators shall be weatherproof NEMA 4 or to IP 65 according to IEC 529.
3.6.2 It shall be possible to obtain access to all terminations and settings without jeopardising the
weatherproofing of the actuator enclosure.
3.6.3 Motor operated actuators used in hazardous areas shall be certified approved by an internationally
recognised certifying authority. In general they shall carry approval for installation in Class 1 Division
1 Groups C & D hazardous locations. In all other cases the requirements should be evaluated in
accordance with the requirements of the Area Classification Drawings.
3.7 Wiring
3.7.1 The terminals shall be separated from the inner electrical components by means of a watertight seal.
3.7.2 Adequate threaded cable entries shall be provided for power and control/status cables.
3.7.3 External conduit connections between the actuator electrical components shall not be allowed.
3.7.4 The internal wiring of the actuator shall be of tropical grade PVC insulated stranded cable of
appropriate size. Each wire shall be clearly identified.
3.7.5 The main power supply cable shall be sized to ensure that the voltage drop does not exceed 15% at the
locked rotor current.
3.7.6 The terminal layout, serial number, external voltage values and wiring diagram number shall be
indicated on a durable card mounted inside the termination housing.
