ID FAILURE POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE MEASURES
1 Incorrect valve position •
Fault of pipeline valve
•
Consult the valve manufacture’s documentation
2 Incorrect indication of valve position •
Incorrect signal from limit switches
•
Check limit switches position (according
instructions reported in the job specific
documentation)
3 Incorrect movement
•
Irregular supply of operating medium
•
Verify the supply pressure and adjust as
necessary
•
Worn parts
•
Contact Rotork Fluid Systems
•
Fault in control panel equipment
(if present)
•
Contact Rotork Fluid Systems Customer Service
•
Fault of pipeline valve
•
Consult the valve manufacture’s documentation
4 Valve stroke not fully completed
•
Insufficient gas flow
•
Increase gas supply flow
•
Incorrect assembly between actuator
and valve
•
Perform assembling according to INSTALLATION
ON VALVE, page 10
•
Valve blocked
•
Consult the valve manufacture’s documentation
•
Stop bolts wrong setting
•
Adjust stop bolt setting following instructions in
ANGULAR STROKE SETTING, page 17
5 Leakages
•
Stop bolts wrong setting
•
Adjust stop bolt setting following instructions in
ANGULAR STROKE SETTING, page 17
•
Worn seals
•
Replace seals according instructions reported in
PM-GP-006, PM-GP-007
6 Actuator moves too fast
•
No pressure on pipeline
•
Restore pipeline pressure
•
Supply pressure greater than allowed
range values
•
Verify the supply pressure and adjust as
necessary
7 Actuator moves too slow
•
Fault on pipeline valve (valve hardened)
•
Consult the valve manufacture’s documentation
•
Supply pressure lower than allowed
range values
•
Verify the supply pressure and adjust as
necessary
•
Possible internal undue friction
•
Contact Rotork Fluid Systems Customer Service
8 Loss of power
•
Inadequate supply pressure
•
Ensure that the supply pressure is above the
minimum operating pressure of the actuator
and that the output torque produced at supply
pressure exceeds the required valve torque.
•
Leakage from cylinder
•
Replace seals according instructions reported in
PM-GP-006, PM-GP-007
