The Actuating Motor 741 is designed to operate any of the tekmar 3-way and 4-way brass mixing valves from type 710
through to type 724. The 741 provides 6 N•m (53 in•lbs) of torque over a 90° rotation. The actuating motor rotates its output
shaft whenever 24 V (ac) is applied between either the counter clockwise (

) or clockwise (

) terminals and the Com

terminal. The motor is compatible with any control having a 24 V (ac) floating output.

• Remove the manual valve handle from the mixing valve.

• Thread the two anti-rotation bolts to the two top holes on the valve body.

• Use the following chart to select the proper coupler:

Type

Coupler Arrow Color

710, 711, 712, 713, 714

White

720, 721, 722, 723, 724

Red

• The arrow on the coupler points towards the valve body. Place the coupler onto the

valve shaft.

• Set the actuating motor’s automatic / manual selector to the manual setting.

• Place the actuating motor onto the coupler. Ensure that the actuating motor’s rotation

range matches that of the mixing valve. Manually rotate the valve using the actuator
hand wheel.

• Ensure the actuating motor’s hand wheel position indicator (clear plastic film with

red stripe) indicates the proper direction to open the valve. If required, the clear
position indicator can be reversed.

• Remove the hand wheel and fasten the actuating motor to the mixing valve using

the screw under the hand wheel. Replace the hand wheel when finished.

• Set the actuating motor’s automatic / manual selector to the automatic setting.

STEP THREE

----------

---------- WIRING ----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------

• Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two screws on the top of the actuating motor to remove the wiring cover.

• All electric wiring enters the actuating motor through the 1/2" (12 mm) conduit hole on the bottom. Standard 18 AWG solid

wire is recommended for all connections to the motor terminals.
