Storage

In many cases, Flowserve products are manufactured from stainless
steel. Products not manufactured from stainless steel are provided
with an epoxy resin coating. This means that Flowserve products are
well protected from corrosion. Nevertheless, Flowserve products must
be stored in a clean, dry environment.

Valve and Actuator Variations

These instructions cannot claim to cover all details of all possible
product variations, nor can they provide information for every
possible example of installation, operation or maintenance. This
means that the instructions normally include only the directions to be
followed by qualified personnel where the product is being used, for
its defined purpose. If there are any uncertainties, particularly in the
event of missing product-related information, clarification must be
obtained via the appropriate Flowserve sales office.

Unpacking

Each delivery includes a packing slip. When unpacking, check the
delivered actuator and accessories using this packing slip.

Report transport damage to the carrier immediately.

In case of discrepancies, contact your nearest Flowserve sales office.

1. Important Notes

• Please read this manual entirely before attempting to install or

operate your CEA actuator. A full understanding of the installation
and operation options will assist you in installing the actuator in
the most effective manner. The CEA actuator is designed for long
life even in harsh environments.

• All actuator enclosures are sealed by O-rings and cable entries are

supplied with threaded plugs to protect the terminal compartment
until the unit is wired. If the actuator cannot be installed imme-
diately, it is recommended that it be stored in a clean, dry place,
preferably in an area that is not subject to large fluctuations in
temperature.

• Disconnect all incoming power before opening any cover on the

actuator. The user/operator must ensure that safe working practic-
es are employed at all times and are in accordance with local or
national standards that are enforced at the particular site.

• To install and operate the actuator, only the terminal compartment

cover needs to be removed. The actuator is factory calibrated
according to nameplate information and is ready to install and
operate upon receipt.

NOTE: If the controls cover is removed, electrical components
are exposed to the atmosphere. Avoid exposure to moisture

ingress and harsh environments that may result in deterioration
of internal components and void the unit’s warranty.

During final field installation, ensure that all cable entries are correctly
sealed in accordance with National Standards or Regulatory Author-
ities. All temporary transit plugs must be removed and any unused
cable entries closed in an approved manner.

2. Actuator Quick Start Guide

for C-PRO and C-MOD Versions

CEA model sizes 15/60/150 use ISO mounting F05/F07 with STAR
drive interface as standard. The baseplate incorporates both mounting
patterns with F07 required for size 150 torque output. A third mount-
ing pattern with larger diameter is also provided for custom mounting
installations.

1. Prior to assembly, check the mounting surfaces, the stem adaptor

and the bracket to assure proper fit.

2. Manually open and close the valve to ensure smooth operation.

3. Be sure the valve and actuator rotate in the same direction and are

in the same position (i.e. valve open, actuator open).

4. Secure the valve with the stem vertical.

5. Bolt the bracket to the valve and place the stem adaptor on the

valve stem.

6. Position the actuator over the valve and lower to engage the stem

adaptor to the actuator output drive. Continue to lower until the
actuator rests on the bracket mounting surface. In order to align
the bolt holes, it may be necessary to turn or rotate the actuator a
few degrees.

7. Bolt the actuator to the bracket.

8. Stroke the actuator several times to assure proper operation with

no binding of the stem adaptor.

a

CAUTION: Fastener length must be less than mounting hole

depth for proper mounting and to avoid damage to mounting
base.

a

CAUTION: Misalignment may reduce actuator cycle life and

cause premature failure.

Travel stops are provided with 90

o

rotation angle models. They are fac-

tory set at 0

o

and 90

o

position. If travel stops are adjusted inward, it is

necessary to perform an AutoCalibration to recalibrate rotation limits.
If travel stops are adjusted outward, it is recommended to perform an
AutoCalibration to recalibrate rotation limits.
