Description

The GVA-24 Goldline Valve Actuator rotates 2-port and 3 port valves automatically.

Use it with the Aqua Logic system or GL-235 Solar Controller to automate pool/spa

operation, solar heating, cleaner operation, water features, or a variety of other uses.

The industry standard configuration of the GVA-24 means that it is compatible with all

major manufacturer's valves and pool automation systems. The unique cam setting

feature ensures a quick and easy installation with the precise control of water flow.

Installation

Mounting Options

Three Port Valve

The Model GVA-24 Actuator may be mounted to the valve in four different positions

(Fig. 1). Depending on the location of the common port (where water enters valve)

and exit port (where water leaves valve), the cam settings may have to be changed.

See diagrams/tables on the following pages to determine which configuration matches

your system.

5.

The toggle switch on the bottom of the valve actuator can be used to verify if the

new adjustment is correct (flip between ON1 and ON2).

6.

Replace cover and handle and tighten screws and Locking Knob.

7.

Put toggle switch back to ON1 or ON2 position.

Synchronization Instruction

After installation of the actuator(s), they may need to be synchronized. Out of syn-

chronization refers to the condition where one actuator is rotating incorrectly in

relation to another actuator. To correct this, simply flip the toggle switch at the

bottom of the actuator which is out of synchronization between the ON1 and ON2

position.

Manual Override

In the event of a power failure, you may need to move the valve position manually.

Before performing this procedure, turn off pool filtration just in case power resumes.

Follow the instructions below for manual override of the GVA-24 actuator.

1.

Put the toggle switch in the OFF (center) position.

2.

Unscrew the Locking Knob above the handle approximately 4 full turns (Fig. 3).

3.

Push down on the Locking Knob. This will disengage the gear train and allow the

handle and thus the diverter to be moved in any position.

4.

To return the actuator to automatic position, pull up on the handle while turning

it clockwise or counterclockwise until you feel the shaft slide up into the gear

train. Screw the Locking Knob down until snug.

5.

Put the toggle switch back in the ON1 or ON2 position.
