requirements and to technical data sheet included in technical documentation. If necessary,
it’s possible to modify or to reset the operating time through the ow regulation valve
placed between the control system and the pneumatic cylinder (Figure 19).
To carry out the adjustment, use an adequate Allen wrench and follow these steps
(Figure 19):

• Screw with a screwdriver the setting screw to increase the operation time.
• Unscrew with a screwdriver the setting screw to decrease the operation time.
• After the adjustment is over screw the locknut
The procedure is absolutely general. It is applicable both fail-to-open and
fail-to-close actuators.
