- Installation: Mx51-710x Series Actuator to 1/2" to 2" VB-7xxx Series Valve Bodies, 2-Way Stem-Up Closed and 3-Way Mixing or Diverting Applications
- A. Preload the valve to insure proper close-off according to the numbered steps in Figure-10 and the text below. (Remove power before proceeding.)
- 1. Locate the steel jam nut that came packaged with the actuator. (Do not re-use the brass jam nut present on an existing valve.)
- 2. Screw the nut onto the valve stem all the way as far as it will go (you may need to use a TOOL-20-1 or a 5/16” open-end wrench). At least 1/2” of the valve stem should extend above the nut.
- 3. Thread the stem extension onto the valve stem, making contact with the jam nut. Raise the valve stem to the full up position.
- 4. Orient the actuator mounting bracket on the valve and tighten the hex mounting nut securely against the bracket using TOOL-37.
- 5. Insert the crank provided in the actuator cover. Wind the crank two turns counterclockwise. Press in the turn crank 1/8 turn counterclockwise to lock in position.
- 6. Rotate the stem extension until the through holes in the stem extension and rack line up. Insert connecting pin to secure stem extension and tighten jam nut against stem extension using TOOL-20-1 or a 5I16” open end wrench.
- B. Apply power to the actuator and check the system operation for heating or cooling output in response to the control signal.
- Installation: Mx51-710x Series Actuator to 1/2" to 2" VB-7xxx Series Valve Bodies, 2-Way Stem-Up Open

- 3. Thread the stem extension onto the valve stem, making contact with the jam nut. Push the valve stem to the full down position.
- 4. Orient the actuator mounting bracket on the valve and tighten the hex mounting nut securely against the bracket using TOOL-37.
- 5. Insert the crank provided in the actuator cover. Wind the crank counterclockwise until the actuator fully extends, then unwind 2 turns and press in and turn crank 1/8 turn counterclockwise to lock in position.
- 6. Rotate the stem extension until the through holes in the stem extension and rack lineup. Insert connecting pin to secure stem extension and tighten jam nut against stem extension using TOOL-20-1 or a 5I16” open end wrench.
- B. Apply power to the actuator and check the system operation for heating or cooling output in response to the control signal.
- Valve Mounting
- 1. Following general piping practices is recommended.
- 2. Apply pipe sealant sparingly to all but the last two threads of a properly threaded, reamed, and cleaned pipe. Make sure the ...
- 3. Start the joint hand-threading the pipe into the valve. If the thread alignment feels normal, continue to turn the pipe by hand as far as it will go.
- 4. Use a pipe wrench to fully tighten the pipe to the valve.
- 5. Insulate only the valve body and associated piping, not the actuator.
- 6. In chilled or cold water systems where the environment is humid, use a drip pan under the valve to catch condensate.

- 1. Following general piping practices is recommended.
- MANUAL OVERRIDE OPERATION
- Figure-13 Unacceptable Mounting Orientation
- 1. Disconnect power from the actuator. The actuator will fully retract.
- 2. Without pushing down on the crank, crank the manual override counterclockwise until the actuator extends to the desired position. Push in until the mechanism locks in position. (The manual override lock will release the next time power is applied.)
- 3. If you desire to reposition the actuator manually from a locked position, turn the crank 1/8 turn counterclockwise and pull out to release. Adjust position as desired.
