2.3 Storage
Actuators must be stored in a clean, cool and dry area. The unit should be stored with the cover
installedandtheconduitopeningssealed.Storagemustbeofftheoor,coveredwithasealed
dust protector. When actuators are to be stored outdoor, they must be stored off the ground, high
enough to prevent from being immersed in water or buried in snow.
3. General informaton and features
HQ5 electric actuators are designed for the operation of small size quarter turn valves; e.g. ball,

3.1.4 Duty Cycle1
Duty cycle rated IEC60034 – S4 70%
Exceeding the actuator’s rated duty cycle may cause thermal overload.
Note:
1) Type of duty according to VDE 0530 / IEC 60034-1
Short – time duty S2 Intermittent duty S4
The operation time at a constant load is short,
so that thermal equilibrium is not reached. The
pause is long enough for the machine to cool
down to ambient temperature. The duration of
the short –time operation is limited to 15min
(10min, 30min)
The duty is a sequence of identical cycles
which consist of starting time, operation time
with constant load and rest period. The rest
period allows the machine to cool down so
that thermal equilibrium is not reached. The rel-
ative on-time at S4-25% or S4-50% is limited
to 25% and 70% respectively.
3.1.5 Torque Control
Torque sensor which detects the variation of torque during operation is installed for preventing
damage of valve and actuator under overload condition. Once actuator is under overload, torque
sensor is tripped and actuator stopped immediately
(ThisisstandardwhentheactuatoristtedwithPCU&isanoptionofon/offcontrol)
3.1.6 Manual Override
CAUTION
Ensure power is isolated before the manual override is engaged.
The manual override lever must be dis-engaged before power is applied to the actuator. Failure to
do so will end in motor burnout.
Gently oscillate the handwheel while engaging & disengaging the manual override lever. The lever
in vertical position = Engaged
The lever in horizontal position = Dis-engaged

3.1.7 Lubrication
HQ5 electric actuator is a totally enclosed unit with permanent lubricated gear train (Moly EP
Grease). Once installed, further lubrication should not be required. However, periodic preventative
maintenance will extend the operating life of the actuator.

4. Installation
4.1 Pre-installation for using in General Service
Verify the actuator’s nameplate to ensure correct model number, torque output, operating speed,
voltage and enclosure type before installation or use.
It is important to verify that the torque output of the actuator is appropriate for the torque
requirements of the valve and that the duty cycle of the actuator is appropriate for the intended
application.
WARNING:
Read this installation, operation and maintenance manual carefully and completely before
attempting to install, operate, or troubleshoot the actuator.
4.2 Actuator Mounting
Note:
• Prior to mounting, the actuator must be checked for any damage
• Damaged parts must be replaced by original spare parts
Mounting is most easily done with the valve shaft pointing vertically upward. But mounting is also
possible in any other position; the actuator may be mounted in any position.
CAUTION:
• DonotattempttoworkonyourHQ5actuatorwithoutrstshuttingofftheincomingpower
• Do not attach ropes or hooks to the hand wheel for the purpose of lifting by hoist

HQ5 Rev 1
Note:
Make sure both the actuator and valve are fully closed.
DANGER:
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE. Make sure all incoming power is disconnected before performing
the mounting.
4.3 Limit Switch Setting
• Manually rotate the hand wheel of the actuator to fully closed position
• Using a Allen key, loosen the set screw in the CLOSE limit switch cam
• Rotate the CLOSE cam towards CW limit switch lever until the switch ‘clicks’
• Tighten the set screw with the Allen key
• Manually rotate the hand wheel of the actuator to opened position
• Using the Allen key, loosen the set screw in the OPEN limit switch cam
• Rotate the OPEN cam towards CCW limit switch lever until the switch ‘clicks’ (see Figure
below)
• Tighten the set screw with the Allen key
DANGER:
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE. Make sure all incoming power is disconnected before setting the
limit switch

5. Maintenance
5.1 Maintenance
CAUTION:
• Turn off all power before attempting to perform maintenance on the actuator.
• POTENTIALLY HIGH PRESSURE VESSEL. Before removing or disassembling your actuator,
ensure that the valve or other actuated device is isolated and not under pressure.
Under the normal conditions, maintenance should be carried out at six month intervals. But when
the conditions are more severe, more frequent inspections may be advisable.
• Ensure that the actuator is properly aligned with the valve or other actuated device
• Ensure that all wirings are insulated, connected and terminated properly
• Ensure that all screws are present and tight
• Ensure cleanness of internal electrical devices
• Ensure that conduit connections are properly installed and are dry
• Check the internal devices for any condensation
• Check the enclosure of O-ring seals and verify that the O-rings are not pinched between
ange
• Verify the declutch mechanism
• Visually inspect the open/close cycle
• Inspecttheidenticationlabelsforwearandreplaceitifnecessary
WARNING
Treat cover with care. Gap surfaces must not be damaged or dirtied in any way. Do not jam the
coverduringtting.
