Warnings
• Do not sideload the actuator.
• Only use the actuator within specified working limits.
• When mounting the LA23 in the application ensure that the bolts can withstand the wear and that they are secured safely.
• If an actuator with stroke length below 50 mm is used, and the electrical end-stop switch fails, please be aware that the distance before reaching
the mechanical end- stop will be prolonged. The extra distance will be 50 mm minus actual stroke length.
I.e. If an actuator with 20 mm stroke length is used and the switch fails, it will travel an additional 30 mm before reaching the mechanical end-stop.
• Instruction concerning the turning of the piston rod eye
When mounting and taking into use, it is not permitted to make excessive turns of the piston rod eye. In cases where the eye is not positioned
correctly, it is permitted to first screw the eye down to its bottom position, at a maximum torque of 2 Nm (1), and thereafter a maximum half
turn outwards again (2).
Recommendations:
• Do not place load on the actuator housing and do prevent impact or blows, or any other form of stress to the housing.
• Ensure that the cable lock is mounted correctly.
• Ensure that the duty cycle and the usage temperatures for LA23 actuators is respected.
• Ensure that the cable cannot be squeezed, pulled or subjected to any other stress.
• The LA23 is not suitable for use in outdoor applications where it can be exposed to sun and rain.
If outdoor use cannot be avoided, it is very important that the LA23 is mounted in a position where it is well shielded. It is up to the customer to
provide the shielding. Furthermore, it will be good practice to ensure that the actuator is fully retracted in the “normal” position. The reason is that
there will be a vacuum inside the actuator if it is extended which over time can lead to water entering the actuator.
The item numbers for ordering the Cable Lock are:
• Item number: 0231007 (light grey) for one cable lock (1 piece).
• Item number: 0231037 (black) for one cable lock (1 piece).
Below you see an instruction in how to mount and remove the cable lock from LA23.
a) Mount a cable lock:
Push down until the cable lock clicks into place.
Step 1:
Insert e.g. a
screwdriver at
a 45 °C angle
as illustrated.
Step 2:
Turn the screw-
driver to release
the cable lock.
Step 3:
Now the cable
lock can be
removed by hand.
b) Cable lock removal
Note: When a cable lock has been removed, it is recommended to replace it with a new.
