Akron 9313 Series Manuale

Valve Actuator moves at the end

of the open or closed function.

Loose screws While some motion is normal from torque, excessive movement

may be caused by loosened screws.

Before tightening the screws, remove them and apply Permabond

LM 113 or Loctite 222 and retighten.

STYLE 9313 CONTROLLER

INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The Style 9313 Controller from Akron is designed to provide reliable and accurate valve control with valve position

indication through 10 LED (Light Emitting Diodes) indicators identifying the degree of Open/Close.

Features of the Akron Style 9313 Controller include:

Protected against EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference), both incoming and outgoing

Programmable Auto Open (not preset)

Works with both 12 and 24 Volt systems

Retroﬁts to existing apparatus

4 ¼” square face

Meets all aspects of NFPA 1901

Carries Akron’s 5 year warranty against manufacturing defects

Standard Components

Controller

Wiring Harness for connection to the valve-10’ length standard

Note: the Controller is designed for use only with Akron Brass Electric Valves. Do not use with any other manufacture of valve. Doing

so will void any warranty.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Select the mounting location for the Controller. The Controller can be mounted from the outside with (4) Screws and

Delrin Nuts (included). Torque requirement is 6-8 lb-in for the nuts. The unit requires 2 ½” clearance behind the panel. Dimensions

for a panel cutout are shown in ﬁgure #1.

Warning: The Controller is a sealed unit. Disassembly of the unit will void any warranty. There are no user serviceable parts in the

Controller. If service is required the unit should be returned to the factory. Also, do not cut any connections. Doing so will void any

warranty and prevent product returns.

Note: The Valve and Auxiliary wires are plugged prior to shipment. These plugs must be removed before connections can be made. If

a lead is not being utilized, the plug should be left in place to prevent moisture damage.

CONTROLLER LEADS

Each Controller has three (3) Connectors extending from the back of the unit.

Power Connection lead

The Controller Power connection utilizes a 2 prong Weather-Pack connector. A mating Weather-Pack connector is required (cus-

tomer supplied-see appendix for purchasing information). Proper wire gauge is required to assure a quality connection. 12 gauge wire

is recommended. Heavier gauge wire is required for runs over 10’.

Note: when using larger than 12 gauge wire, be sure to use a 12 gauge connector and splice after the connector so as to not void any

warranty. The splice should be made close to the Controller.

121568

For best connections all grounds should be made to either the frame or to a similar solid surface. A faulty ground will lead to

unit malfunction.

Added loads on any power wire should be avoided.

Direct runs are recommended for all connections.

12 Volt systems require a minimum of 11.5 volts at the valve under full load (28 amps).

24 Volt systems require a minimum of 22 volts at the valve under full load (14 amps).

Typical current draw for a 2”-3” valve is 2-4 amps in a 12 volt system (1-2 amps for 24 volt). It will be slightly higher for larger sized

valves. When the mechanical stops are reached (full open or full closed) current draw can reach 28 amps in a 12 Volt system and 14

Amps in a 24 Volt system.

Note: The truck should always be running before operating the Controller.

Electric Valve Connection lead

Use an Akron Wiring Harness to connect the Controller to the Valve Motor. The standard length is 10’. All Wiring

Harnesses have Deutsch connectors. See the appendix for a complete list of Wiring Harnesses.

Auxiliary Connection lead

The Controller Auxiliary connection is a 3 prong Weather-Pack connector.

To connect a Master to an Auxiliary, an Auxiliary Cable is required. Standard length is 10’. See the appendix for a list of Auxiliary

Cables.

NOTE: When utilizing an Auxiliary, a separate power lead is required for the Auxiliary

AUTO OPEN FEATURE

Auto Open allows a pump operator to open a fully closed valve by momentarily pressing the “OPEN” button.

The Auto Open feature is factory set in the DISABLED position. The Auto Open option can be changed to on or off in the Setup Mode.

If Auto Open is disabled, the valve only operates as long as an “OPEN”, or a “CLOSE” button is being pressed.

INITIAL SETUP

The Controller must be calibrated when used for the ﬁrst time with a new valve or with a different valve. When used for the ﬁrst

time, the LED Bar Graph Display will ﬂash indicating calibration is needed.

Calibration can be done easily by accessing the Setup Mode shown below.

Note: When a Controller is used as an Auxiliary, the Setup Mode is not accessible. Calibration and setup are only

necessary for a Master Controller.

SETUP MODE

Press and hold both the “OPEN” and “CLOSE” buttons for 15 seconds.

Note: Software versions (1.30 and higher) will blink out the Version after both buttons have been pressed for 2 seconds.

Example for version 1.32

- Press, and hold both the OPEN and CLOSE buttons.

- All LEDs turn off.

- After 2 seconds, the green LED ﬂashes once, then the middle yellow LED ﬂashes 3 times, and then the red LED ﬂashes 2 times.

- All LEDs turn off.

- If you continue to hold both buttons for 10 more seconds (LEDS will be all off), the Setup Menu will be accessed.

- If you release both buttons immediately after checking software version, the controller will resume normal operation.

After continuing to hold both the “OPEN” and “CLOSE” buttons for 15 seconds, the display will ﬂash once and then enter the SETUP

OPTIONS area. Now both buttons can both be released.

CALIBRATE DISPLAY to valve - middle YELLOW LED:

If you just entered the Setup Options area, the middle YELLOW LED should be the only LED on. This selection will cali

brate the display so that it matches the valve being used.

CAUTION: This function will cause the valve to cycle automatically! The valve will cycle to fully closed, fully open, then

back to the fully closed position. If you do not want to calibrate the display at this time, then refer to the EXIT instructions.

Page 02

To select the calibrate function; press the “CLOSE” button once.

AUTO OPEN Option - GREEN LED:

Use the “OPEN” button to navigate through the setup options until only the GREEN LED is on. (Each time the “OPEN

button is pressed, the display will jump to the next setup option.)

If the green LED is BLINKING, then Auto Open is DISABLED

If the green LED is ON SOLID, then Auto Open is ENABLED

The “CLOSE” button can be pressed to change this setting.

EXIT - RED LED:

Use the “OPEN” button to navigate through the setup options until only the RED LED is on. (Each time the “OPEN button

is pressed, the display will jump to the next setup option.) Now press the “CLOSE” button once. The unit will ﬂash the

LEDs once, and then return the controller to normal operation.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Cause Solution

Red or Green LED’s do not

illuminate but the Valve will

open and close.

Too much voltage drop or not

enough current for the unit to sense

the end of travel.

1. Truck engine must be running

2. Check the voltage to the Controller.

12 Volt systems require 11.5 volts @ 28 amps.

24 Volt systems require 22 volts @ 14 amps.

3. Check all wiring from the power source to the

Controller. A minimum of 12 gauge wire should

be used. For lengths over 10’ heavier gauge wire is

required.

4. Check all connections and grounds for loose

connections.

Red and Green LED’s

illuminate prematurely

before the Valve is fully open

or closed.

1. Short in the Motor or Controller

2. Gear system is jammed.

3. Seat or Valve Ball is damaged

1. Remove the Motor from the Gear Housing and

measure the amps needed to operate the Motor. The

Motor should require approximately 1.5 amps on 12

Volt systems; .75 amps for 24 volt systems.

2. Operate the Manual Override on the Actuator. If

difﬁculty is found, check under the housing cover

for damaged parts causing the Valve not to operate

properly.

3. Check the Valve waterway for any obstruction or

damage to the Ball or Seats.

The yellow LED

illuminates but the Valve

does not move while the

Motor continues to run.

Worm Gear is disengaged Remove the Gear Housing Cover and check for

damaged parts. Check the Groove Pin in the Worm Gear for

proper engagement.
