GENERAL INFORMATION
Valve Actuators are an important part of
pool/spa automation. They are used for
changing the water flow as required by a
pre-set program or a remote manual
control.
These Actuators mount directly on most
standard 1-1/2” or 2”, two or three port
valves and can be adapted to fit space saver
valves as well. They can be mounted in
four different positions and feature a
three-way toggle switch for ease of
synchronization.
INSTALLATION
Mounting Options
1. Standard Plumbing of a three-port valve is
the port B (middle) being the incoming
(common) port and A and C ports are the
outlet ports (See figure 1).
2. Standard Actuator Mounting position is when the main
body of the Actuator is over port B (See figure 2).
NOTE: If the valve is plumbed as in Figure 1 and the
Actuator is mounted as in Figure 2 below, the factory set-
ting of Actuator cams need no adjustment.
3. The Actuator can be mounted on top of a valve in four
different positions
(See figure 3).
Depending on the
plumbing of the
valve and
mounting
position of the
Actuator,
the cams inside
the Actuator
have to be reset.

    What to do if the Intermatic Controller actuator motor does not turn?
    • H
      Henry BeckJul 28, 2025
      If the actuator motor does not turn, there could be several reasons. First, check if there is power to the actuator by checking the black (common), red, and white wire voltage. Ensure the toggle switch is in the appropriate Auto 1 or 2 position. The motor itself may have failed, requiring you to replace the actuator. Alternatively, a switch may have failed or broken, necessitating switch replacement. Finally, check the cam settings to ensure both cams are not in contact with the switches.

    Why does my Intermatic PE24VA actuator rotate in one direction but not back again?
    • N
      Nicholas RossAug 3, 2025
      If your actuator rotates in only one direction, it could be due to several factors. A switch might be broken or damaged, requiring replacement. There could be bad connection(s), so check all connections. The control relay switch might be faulty, so check its operation at the power source. Also, a wire might be broken, so check the red and white wires.

    What to do if Intermatic PE24VA Controller actuator motor works, but the valve diverter does not turn?
    • H
      heatherbarrAug 9, 2025
      If the actuator motor works but the valve diverter doesn't turn, it could be due to a broken actuator shaft, in which case you should replace the actuator. Another possibility is a broken valve diverter, which would also need replacement. Make sure the actuator isn't in manual position; if it is, pull up on the handle while rotating counterclockwise. Finally, the actuator gear train might be damaged, requiring actuator replacement.

    How to fix Intermatic Controller actuator handle oscillation?
    • J
      James MunozAug 15, 2025
      If the actuator handle oscillates, it could be due to a lack of valve seal lubrication, so lubricate the valve. Another cause could be an obstruction in the valve body; to resolve this, remove the actuator and valve lid and inspect.

    What to do if there is water inside Intermatic Controller actuator?
    • R
      Rebecca PetersonAug 20, 2025
      If there is water inside the actuator, it is likely due to damaged seals. Replace the top lid and grease seals.
