    Why is my STI SC actuator too slow?
    • Z
      Zachary AndersonJul 29, 2025
      If the STI Controller actuator is too slow, first, check if the supply pressure is low and adjust it accordingly. Also, verify the speed control settings and adjust them to increase the flow. If the issue persists, the main valve may be worn, and you should consult the valve manufacturer's documentation.

      If the STI Controller actuator isn't working properly, start by checking the hydraulic supply line for any issues. If the supply is fine, the main valve might be defective, and you should consult the valve manufacturer's documentation. If problems continue, this could indicate a failure of the control group, and you should contact STI s.r.l. - Customer Care Dept.

    Why is my STI SC Controller actuator too fast?
    • C
      Chelsea ReevesAug 13, 2025
      If the STI Controller actuator is too fast, try resetting the system, as high supply pressure could be the cause. Also, check the speed control settings and adjust them to decrease the flow.

    How to correct an incorrect valve position on an STI SC Controller?
    • M
      Michael RiceAug 18, 2025
      If the valve position on your STI Controller is incorrect, it might be due to a wrong adjustment of the mechanical stops or wrong electric limit switches indication. Try re-adjusting the settings.
