DUE TO WIDE VARIATIONS IN THE TERMINAL NUMBERING OF ACTUATOR PRODUCTS, ACTUAL WIRING OF THIS DEVICE SHOULD FOLLOW THE PRINT SUPPLIED WITH THE UNIT. 2 CVQ installation and maintenance instructions This manual covers the part-turn control valve actuator range (CVQ) . Models: CVQ-1200 and CVQ-2400 Refer to Rotork PUB042-001 for full specification. Building on Rotork’s historical success with innovative technology, the CVQ offers a highly accurate and responsive method of automating control valves without the complexity and cost of a pneumatic supply. With an increased focus on production costs and efficiency, accurate control of the process variable is paramount. With resolution figures better than 0.1% and the ability to eliminate position overshoot, the Rotork CVA range helps to maximize product quality and plant capacity. CVA range actuators are self contained, purpose designed and built for continuous remote electrical operation of control valves . The actuator comprises: • DC brushless electric motor • Reduction gearing with quadrant output gear • Motor controller with speed, travel and torque limitation • Electronic logic controls and monitoring facilities housedin a double-sealed watertight enclosure • Hazardous area certification meeting international and national requirements All torque and position settings as well as configuration of the actuator are made using a non-intrusive Bluetooth® wireless device, typically a PC or laptop (not supplied) . Bluetooth wireless PC Enlight software is available for free download [from www.rotork.com](from www.rotork.com). 3 This manual has been produced to enable a competent user to install, operate, adjust and inspect the Rotork range of Control Valve Actuators. The electrical installation, maintenance and use of these actuators should be carried out in accordance with the National Legislation and Statutory Provisions relating to the safe use of this equipment applicable to the site of installation. For the UK: Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 and the guidance given in the applicable edition of the ‘IEE Wiring Regulations’ should be applied. Also the user should be fully aware of their duties under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. For the USA: NFPA70, National Electrical Code® is applicable. The mechanical installation should be carried out as outlined in this manual and also in accordance with any relevant national standard codes of practice. If the actuator nam

FAQs

What safety information must be followed before installing or maintaining the CVQ actuator?

The manual states that the important safety information must be thoroughly read and understood before installing, operating, or maintaining the equipment. Hazardous area access to live conductors is forbidden unless done under a special permit to work, and power should be isolated and the actuator moved to a non-hazardous area for repair or attention.

Which CVQ models are covered by this manual?

The manual covers the part-turn control valve actuator range (CVQ), specifically models CVQ-1200 and CVQ-2400.

How are torque and position settings configured?

All torque and position settings and actuator configuration are made using a non-intrusive Bluetooth® wireless device, typically a PC or laptop (not supplied), using Bluetooth wireless PC Enlight software available for free download.
