ACT2000
3 INSTALLATION
The purpose of this section is to aid personnel in the installation, placement, and
environmental considerations to be observed for the ACT2000 and associated
equipment.
3.1 Inspection
The ACT2000 should be inspected immediately after unpacking. Check for
damage, paying particular attention to the external lead wires.
Note: Retain the actuator’s original shipping container. In the event of
future transportation requirements, this container will minimize
damage during shipment.
3.2 Environmental Considerations
The ACT2000 will operate satisfactorily with ambient air temperature of -40 °C
(-40 °F) to +93 °C (+200 °F). The ACT2000 is designed as an explosion-proof
assembly. The ACT2000 enclosure is Canadian Standards Association (CSA)
Type 3.
WARNING: Property Damage – Solvent/water may enter the electronics
area during a high-pressure wash.
3.3 Mechanical Installation
This section describes proper ACT2000 installation. Care should be exercised to
ensure compliance with the factory recommendations.
3.3.1 Space Requirements
Figure 3-1 shows external dimensions and mounting provisions for the ACT2000-
590P. Figure 3-2 shows the external dimensions and mounting provisions for the
ACT2000-200F. The user should ensure additional swing clearance as required.
3.3.2 Mounting Considerations
The ACT2000 can be directly mounted to a gas turbine engine using brackets
provided by the engine manufacturer. The ACT2000 can be mounted in any
orientation (UP, DOWN, SIDEWAYS).
The ACT2000 may provide a clevis, or other method, for installing the motor end.
High strength bolts (0.375 diameter) are recommended to secure the actuator to
a user-provided mount bracket.
WARNING:
Lifting Hazard – Do not attempt to hand lift actuator. Use appropriate lifting
equipment.
