Actuator Wiring

Wiring is dependent on the type of actuator,

mounting, and the desired options that are available.

Consult the actuator model label and then the

relevant sections in the MEP-7500/7800 series

actuators

installation guide

and

application

guide

on the KMC Controls

web site

for detailed

1. Loosen (2) wing

nuts and slide
“U” bracket away
from actuators.

2. Depress gear disengagement

button on actuators and rotate
actuators as shown to allow
access to wiring covers.

3. After actuator

wiring is complete,
rotate actuators
back into position,
slide “U” bracket so
that the non-rotation
studs are centered
in rear slot of the
actuator and tighten
the (2) wing nuts.

Dual, Stacked Actuators Wiring Access

instructions on the applicable wiring, feedback

selector, and actuator/signal range reset (auto-

mapping) of the valve’s actuator. For dual, stacked

actuators, follow the process below to access

terminals in both actuators.

CAUTION

Using mineral oil lubricants or other
incompatible substances in system fluids may
damage EPDM rubber seats in valves. Before
using any lubricant or additive in a water or
ethylene glycol base, consult the substance
manufacturer for compatibility with EPDM
(Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer).

CAUTION

Freeze protection required for fluid
temperatures below 32° F (0° C).

Operation

After the mechanical and electrical installations

have been completed, cycle the actuator to verify the

direction of rotation for normal operation and fail-

safe if so equipped.
