If damaged, notify the appropriate carrier immediately. If undamaged, open the package and inspect the device for obvious damage. Return damaged products. Requirements • Job wiring diagrams • Tools (not provided): –Digital Volt-ohm Meter (DVM) –Appropriate screwdriver(s) for cover and mounting screws –Appropriate drill and drill bit for mounting screws –Appropriate wrenches for adjustment of damper and valve linkages • Appropriate accessories • Mounting screws (not provided) • Training:Installer must be a qualified, experienced technician Warning: • Disconnect the power supply (line power) before installation to prevent electrical shock and equipment damage. • Make all connections in accordance with the wiring diagram and in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Use copper conductors only. Caution: • Do not apply power to the unit unless the damper linkage and/or the valve assembly have been installed. • Avoid locations where excessive oil, dust, moisture, corrosive fumes or vibration, or an explosive atmosphere is present. The actuator case is intended primarily to provide a degree of protection against windblown dust, rain, sleet, and external ice formation (NEMA Type4). Mounting Mount the actuator according to the following requirements: 1.Allow a minimum of 6 " (152mm) clearance behind the actuator for access to the wiring compartment. 2.Locate the actuator in a weather-protected area. 3.To ensure water and weather resistance, install the cover gasket (provided) and use water-tight conduit fittings. Dampers Install the actuator and the damper linkage, so that 180° of actuator shaft rotation drives 90° of damper shaft rotation, as follows: Actuator Mounting and Damper Linkage Installation 1.Mount the actuator in an appropriate position near the damper. Note: • MA-305 and MA-405 series actuators are not position-sensitive, and in damper applications, may be mounted in any position. However, the upright position is preferred. • MA-318, MA-416, MA-418, and MA-419 series actuators must be mounted so that the output shaft lies in a horizontal position. • To the extent possible, position the actuator to optimize the length of the damper rod needed to link it with the damper. A damper rod that is too long is not rigid enough for good control, and a damper rod that is too short makes it difficult to adjust the linkage. 2.Install crank arms onto the driven shaft and the actuator shaft. Tighten the crank arm on the driven shaft. Do not tighten the crank arm on the actuator shaft at this time. 3.Install a linkage connector onto the actuator shaft crank arm, at the prick point. Refer to (Figure-3) and (Figure-4).6© Copyright 2012 Schneider Electric All Rights Reserved.F-06491-32 Figure-3Location of Prick Point on Crank Arm. Figure-4180° Actuator Rotation Driving a Damper Rotation of 90°. 4.Install a linkage connector onto the driven shaft crank arm, at the end of the slot. Refer to (Figure-4). 5.Install the damper rod in the linkage connectors on both crank arms and tighten the linkage connector screws finger-tight. Caution:Never attempt to turn the actuator shaft with a wrench or a crank; this may damage the actuator. Linkage Adjustment 1.Verify that the crank arm on the actuator shaft is loose. Rotate, by hand, the crank arm on the actuator to drive the linkage and the damper shaft through its full stroke, to ensure proper damper action. 2.For normally closed dampers, proceed as follows: a.Return the damper to the closed position. b.Tighten the crank arm on the actuator shaft. c.Loosen the screw on one of the linkage connectors. d.While pushing the damper closed, tighten the linkage connector screws to secure the damper rod. 3.For normally open dampers, proceed as follows: a.Move the damper to approximately 85° of the full open position. b.Tighten the crank arm on the actuator shaft. c.Tighten the linkage connector screws to secure the damper rod. 4.Run the actuator back and forth through its full stroke and check for proper damper and linkage operation. Adjust the linkage if required. Caution:When linking an actuator to a damper, be sure that it can complete its full stroke. If the damper stops the actuator before it has reached its electrical limit of travel on the power stroke, the actuator may be permanently damaged. Readjust the linkage as necessary.

A tag or an arrow on the valve body indicates proper flow direction. • Always install three-way mixing valves with two inlets and one outlet. • Always install three-way diverting valves with one inlet and two outlets. • For steam applications only, mount the actuator above the valve body at 45° from the vertical. • MA-318, MA-416, MA-418, and MA-419 series actuators can be mounted in any upright position above the centerline of the valve body. However, the output shaft must lie in a horizontal position.

Two 3/4 " pipe tapped openings are provided in the housing for rigid conduit connections. It is recommended to insert a chase nipple from inside of the housing to prevent threads from cutting or damaging wiring. When wiring, take care to lay all leads in the wiring channel located just under the housing cover to protect the leads from any sharp edges which may be in the vicinity. The housing and the edge of the cover are stamped with the letter "O." When replacing the cover, the letters must be aligned with each other. Warning:The cover-to-housing orientation must be maintained in order to preserve the integrity of the seal. Failure to observe this warning can result in injury or death. 1.Remove twelve cover screws and cover. Place cover, machined surface up, in a protected location to avoid damage to machined surfaces. 2.Make all wiring connections to actuator taking care to lay all leads in the wiring channel provided. 3.Before enclosing the actuator, wipe machined surfaces of housing clean with a lint free cloth and apply one of the UL approved compounds. See Note below. Warning:Failure to observe these warnings can result in injury or death. • Do not scrape, scratch, or use abrasives on the machined surfaces. • Ensure the surfaces are clean. • Use only the approved compounds listed below. 4.Secure cover tight against the enclosure in the same position before removal with the twelve screws provided. Note:Underwriters Laboratories has sanctioned the use of the following compounds on hazardous location ground joints: Crouse-Hinds type OSL lubricant, Crouse-Hinds type STL lubricant, or "No-OXID" oil, grade "D." Two 1/2 " conduit knockouts are provided on the actuator case. Refer to Figure-7 for terminal locations. Figure-7Actuator Terminal Locations.
