Flap Gate Etc.
01
The motor will be 3 phase squirrel cage TEFC class F insulated
(temperature rise limited to 70 deg. C. over an ambient of 50 deg. C), IP-
55 enclosure both for motor switches & its terminal box, and with high
starting torque and high stalling torque. The duty cycle will be S2-10 min
or S4/ S5-1200 cycles per hour or S4/ S5-600 cycles per hour depending
upon the rating and application of the actuator.
02
Each actuator will be provided with 'Open' and 'Close' torque and position
limit switches. Once the torque switch has tripped in either direction, it
can only be reset by operation of the actuator in the opposite direction.
Each switch will have 2 NO + 2 NC potential free double break contacts.
Switch contact ratings on inductive circuits will be 5A AC at 230 V AC.
Actuator will be provided with motor over-riding feature like hand wheel
for emergency manual operation and a limit switch will be provided which
contacts will be used in the motor control circuit to forbid the motorised
operation during manual operation by hand wheel. Also when the motor is
switched 'ON' the hand wheel connection will be disengaged
automatically. Motor operation will always have priority over manual
operation.
Internal wiring will be tropical grade PVC insulated, stranded copper
conductor cable of 10A rating for control circuits and required ratings for
motor. All wires will be clearly numbered at both the terminal block and
component ends. Cable ferrules will be robust and numbers will be
indelible in nature.
The voltage grade of cables/ wires will be 1100V. Power terminals will be
separated from the control terminals by means of an insulating cover.
Separate terminal block fitted to switching unit will be provided. The
terminal box will be designed for the protection class or IP-65. A durable
terminal identification card showing plan or terminals will be provided
attached to the inside of the terminal box cover indicating serial number,
external voltage values, wiring diagram number and terminal layout.
The actuator will be suitable for operation at specified ambient
temperature. All actuators will be neoprene O-ring sealed water tight and
dust proof to IP-67 protection and will at the same time have an inner
watertight neoprene O-ring seal between the terminal box and the internal
electrical elements of the actuator, fully protecting the switch mechanism,
motor and all other internal electrical elements of the actuator from
ingress of moisture and dust when the terminal box cover is removed on
site for cabling/ maintenance.
The actuators will be operated from the Remote Control Station and Local
control station (LCS) will be provided separately for local operation of the
