- J
  Jeremy GarciaAug 16, 2025
  If you are not receiving a signal from your Bray Measuring Instruments, there are several potential causes: * The wiring inside the VSM might not be connected. Rewire the field wiring and verify the torque applied to the terminal block. * The cams may be set outside of the actuator range. Adjust the cam position. * The switches may be damaged. Check the power ratings of the switches against the application requirements.

  christophermeyersAug 19, 2025
  If the visual indication on your Bray Measuring Instruments is opposite of the actuator position, it could be because the visual indication was reversed, or the VSM was mounted at a 90-degree angle. To correct this, reverse the visual indication or remount the VSM.

  Jeremy MckinneyAug 22, 2025
  If the VSM on your Bray Measuring Instruments is not rotating, the issue might stem from: * Improper mating between the bracket or adapter and the actuator. Check the bracket and adapter to ensure they fit correctly, and adjust as needed. * The actuator itself not moving as commanded. Consult the troubleshooting chart in the actuator IOM and check the field wiring.

What to do if the Bray Monitor signal is not received?
- J
  Joshua CombsAug 31, 2025
  If the signal is not being received by your Bray Monitor, there are several potential causes. First, the wiring inside the VSM might not be properly connected; rewire the field wiring and check the applied torque to the terminal block. Another cause could be that the cams are set outside of the actuator range; in this case, you should adjust the cam position. Finally, there might be damage to the switches; check the power ratings of the switches versus the application.

Why is there corrosion inside my Bray Monitor unit?
- M
  Mr. Francisco AcostaSep 3, 2025
  Corrosion inside your Bray Monitor unit can occur due to a couple of reasons. One reason is condensation forming within the unit; to resolve this, seal the conduit opening. Another reason is water leaking into the unit; inspect all seals and check for any potential water entry points through the conduit.

  johncollinsSep 9, 2025
  If the visual indication on your Bray Monitor is showing the opposite of the actuator's actual position, it's likely that the visual indication was reversed, or the VSM was mounted at a 90-degree angle. To correct this, reverse the visual indication or remount the VSM.
