6 M9106-xGx-2 Series Electric Non-Spring Return Actuators Installation Instructions
Auxiliary Switches (xGC Models)
The M9106-xGC-2 models have two built-in
auxiliary switches that may be set for any angle
between 0 and 90° (factory set for 10 and 80°,
nominal). Refer to the Technical Data section for
auxiliary switch ratings.
The following procedures serve as examples to
change the position of the auxiliary switch angles
when starting at full CCW position.
Switch S1
To change the angle of Switch S1 to 20°, refer to
Figure 13 and proceed as follows:
Edge of
Switch
Gear
Release
Plunger
Nodule Guides
(10° Increments)
CW
CW
Coupler
Set Screw
0°
90°
Figure 13: Switch Angle Settings
1. Press and hold the gear release. Using the
0 to 90° nodule guides, rotate the coupler until the
center of the coupler set screw is at 20°.
2. Rotate Switch S1 CW, and align the edge of the
switch with the plunger until the plunger rises.
(See Figure 13.)
Note: At this point, the normally closed contact
closes, and the normally open contact opens. (See
Auxiliary Switches in Figure 10.)
Switch S2
To change the angle of Switch S2 to 70°, refer to
Figure 13 and proceed as follows:
1. Press and hold the gear release. Using the
0 to 90° nodule guides, rotate the coupler until the
center of the coupler set screw is at 70°.
2. Rotate Switch S2 CW, and align the edge of the
switch with the plunger until the plunger rises.
(See Figure 13.)
Note: At this point, the normally closed contact
opens, and the normally open contact closes. (See
Auxiliary Switches in Figure 10.)
3. Press and hold the gear release. Rotate the
coupler until the center of the coupler set screw is
back to 0°.
4. Check all the wiring and system settings, and
apply power to the controller. Provide signals to
the actuator to drive it at least one complete cycle
open and closed to verify proper operation.
Repairs and Replacement
Field repairs must not be made. For a replacement or
an accessory, refer to the Ordering Information section
in the M9106-xGx-2 Series Electric Non-spring Return
Actuators Product Bulletin (LIT-2681123).
