2. Wiring

Image
  • Connect the 230V Live (L) wire to the relay module’s power input.
  • Connect the Neutral (N) wire to the relay module’s neutral terminal.
  • Wire the relay output (NO) to the Live input of the valve actuator.
  • Connect the valve’s Neutral wire to the relay module’s Neutral terminal.
  • Connect the relay module to the smart controller using control signal wires.
  • Power the smart controller with a 12V DC power supply (connect +12V and GND).
  • Link one controller output channel to a relay input to trigger switching.
  • Ensure common GND is shared between controller and relay module.

3. Installation

Image

Important: Install the device manually without using any tools; avoid pliers or sharp instruments to prevent damage to the components.

  1. Insert the mounting ring.
    1. Place the threaded mounting ring over the valve pin.
    2. Turn it clockwise to tighten it securely by hand.
Image
  1. Attach the actuator.
    1. Align the device vertically with the valve.
    2. Press it down firmly onto the mounting ring until it clicks into place.
Image

Take Down

  1. Press the release button.
    1. On the side of the device, press and hold the unlock button (or clip) while gripping the unit.
Image
  1. Lift the device upward.
    1. While holding the release button, pull the device upward to detach it from the valve.

4. Normally Closed

First-Time Activation

  1. Initial State (Locked – Factory Default):
    1. The actuator is locked and the valve is closed.
    2. No fluid flow is possible.
    3. A lock symbol indicates inactive status.
Image
  1. Unlock by Powering On:Apply power to the actuator for at least 3 minutes.
    1. This unlocks the actuator and calibrates the internal mechanism.
    2. The valve temporarily opens during this phase.
Image
  1. Power Off – Ready for Use:After the initial activation, remove power.
    1. The actuator returns to its normally closed state.
    2. A small visible gap of approx. 0.5 mm at the top confirms proper initialization.

5. Visual Confirmation of Proper Initialization

Image

After the first activation, verify that the actuator is in the correct position:

  • Correct Position:
    • A visible gap of approximately 0.5 mm between the actuator housing and the top cap indicates successful initialization.
    • → Status: OK

 

  • Incorrect Positions:
    • If the top is completely flush with the housing – initialization may not have completed.
    • If the top is raised too high – the actuator may be blocked or malfunctioning.

Action: If incorrect, repeat the first-time activation process by powering the actuator for 3 minutes.

6. Function Mode – Normally Closed

Image
  1. Power Cut (No Power):
    • The valve remains closed by default.
    • →Fluid or air cannot pass through the pipe.

Note: A "normally closed" actuator requires power to open. In its resting state (no power), the valve blocks the flow.

Image
  1. Power On:
    • When voltage is applied, the actuator opens the valve.
    • → Flow is enabled, and the system operates normally.

Note: A "normally closed" actuator requires power to open. In its resting state (no power), the valve blocks the flow.

7. Function Mode – Normally Open

Image
  1. Power Cut (No Power):
    • The valve remains open by default.
    • → Fluid or air can pass freely through the system.

Note: A "normally open" actuator closes only when powered. Without power, the valve allows continuous flow.

Image
  1. Power On:
    1. When voltage is applied, the actuator closes the valve.
    2. → Flow is blocked, and the valve is shut.

Note: A "normally open" actuator closes only when powered. Without power, the valve allows continuous flow.
