Checklist Before Installation
Access
Make sure that you install the actuator in such a way that
you have easy access to it for inspection and
maintenance. Ensure that the cover has enough
clearance to be easily removed.
Environment
Make sure that the local environment matches the original
operating specifications. Check the following items:
• voltage, frequency and stability of the electrical
power
• humidity, altitude and temperature of air
• presence of damaging corrosive gases in the air
Actuator Mounting
Depending on your application, please keep the following
in mind when mounting the actuator:
• The actuator housing has seven possible mounting
holes, as shown in Figure 3.1.
- The outer set of four holes “A” are clear for
inserting bolts up to size M5 or #10.
- The inner set of three holes “B” are drilled to a
depth of 9.8mm (0.39") to accept tapping screws
size M5 or #10-32.
- A 6mm wide by 7mm long by 6mm deep hole “C”
is provided for brackets designed with a stop pin.
• Mounting this actuator depends on the application;
contact Eclipse for available mounting kits.
• When mounting the actuator, be certain that the
actuator’s drive shaft is properly aligned with the
other shaft to which it will be coupled to avoid undue
lateral stress.
• The standard drive shaft is round with a Woodruff
key for a coupling, as shown on page 17. Some
models may have a square shaft.
• Provide support for the weight of conduit or cables
into the actuator.
• Ensure clearance for cover removal.
