S2
The operation time at a constant load is short, so that
thermal equilibrium is not reached. The pause is long
enough for the machine to cool down to ambient temper-
ature. The duration of the short-time operation is limited
to 15 min or 30 min (10 min, 30 min).
S4
The duty is a sequence of identical cycles which consist
of starting time, operation time with constant load and
rest period. The rest period allows the machine to cool
down so that thermal equilibrium is not reached. The rel-
ative on- time at S4 - 25 % or S4 - 50 % is limited to
25 % and 50 % respectively.

 Functions
Seating
Depending on the design of the valve
to be operated, the seating in the end
positions either has to be limit seat-
ing, i.e. by measuring the valve travel
completed, or torque seating, i.e.
after reaching a defined torque. For
this purpose, the actuator is
equipped with two independent
measuring systems, i.e. limit
switching and torque switching.
The type of seating has to be taken in
account both when setting the actua-
tor and in the actuator control. How-
ever, the processing of signals for
the two types of seating differs.

Limit seating Torque seating

Set tripping torque

Speed

Torque

Travel
OPEN CLOSED
The actuator runs at nominal output speed up to the set
tripping point P. Depending on output speed, actuator
size and valve type, the combination has sufficient iner-
tia to move the obturator further in direction of the end
position (overrun) after the motor has been switched
off. In addition, the overrun also depends on the load.
By selecting an earlier tripping point P, the overrun can
be accounted for in case of limit seating.
P Travel
OPEN CLOSED
After starting from the end position OPEN, the actuator
runs in direction CLOSE. In end position CLOSED the
torque increases within the valve seat until the actuator is
automatically switched off after reaching the set value.

Overload protection against torque peaks
The torque switching, used for
torque seating in the end position
(see page 10), serves as overload
protection for the entire travel, even
in the case of limit seating.
If an excessive torque builds up at
the obturator in an intermediate posi-
tion, e.g. due to a trapped object, the
torque switching will be tripped after
reaching the set tripping torque.
After the controls have processed
the torque switch signal accordingly,
the motor will be switched off. As a
result, valve and actuator are pro-
tected from damage.
Non-intrusive setting (option)
If the actuator is equipped with a
magnetic limit and torque trans-
mitter (see page 14) and integral
controls AUMATIC (see page
23) the actuator can be set
non-intrusively. This means that
the parameters can be set without
having to open the actuator. Thereby
several advantages are achieved:
Analogue torque sensing (option)
If the actuator is equipped with an
analogue torque sensing, the
demanded torque can be constantly
displayed. The torque signal is avail-
able as 4 - 20 mA current signal.
The maximum values 4 mA and
20 mA are only reached when the
torque switching is set to the maxi-
mum possible tripping torque.

 Output speeds
Output speeds
With the large range of available out-
put speeds, almost every required
operating time can be achieved with
AUMA multi-turn actuators.
The output speed is determined by
the motor speed and the gear reduc-
tion ratios, except for actuators with
variable speed motors. Therefore it
is necessary to mention the output
speed when placing an order.

Limit and torque switches
With the help of the switches, the
mechanically measured travel (i.e.
number of turns) and torque are con-
verted into usable signals for the
actuator controls. The switches are
integrated into the control unit which
contains four switches in the basic
version:
one limit switch each for the end
positions OPEN and CLOSED,
one torque switch each for the di-
rections OPEN and CLOSE.
The limit switches are tripped when
an end position is reached and the
torque switches are tripped when the
set tripping torque is exceeded.
Equipment
If the actuator is supplied with
DUO-limit switching (see below) two
more limit switches for intermediate
positions are available.
To meet the high demands regarding
reliability, AUMA uses specially
developed high quality microswit-
ches with a snap action mechanism.
In the basic version the switch con-
tacts are of silver. For voltages bet-
ween 5 V and 50 V and low current,
switches with gold plated contacts
are recommended.

Absolute travel measuring

without battery
The valve position is determined
using a so called multi-turn-absolute
encoder.
Four shafts, each with a ratio of 8:1,
are used to convert the travel into an
electronic signal. Each valve
position is assigned an unambigu-
ous combination of the 4 shaft posi-
tions. Magnets and hall sensors
register the shaft positions electroni-
cally.

Torque continuously available

The proven sliding worm stands for
the mechanical principle of torque
sensing. A torque at the output drive
results in an axial movement of the
sliding worm against the spring
action. With a lever, the axial move-
ment is transformed into a swivel
movement. Hall sensors convert this
movement into an electronic signal.

 Design principle
Motor
1 An especially high starting torque is
frequently required to unseat valves
from the end position. The motors developed
by AUMA fulfil this basic requirement.
Besides the commonly used 3-phase AC
motors, 1-phase AC motors and DC motors
are available for the actuator sizes up to 14.5
or 16.1 respectively. The sizes SA 07.1 up to
SA 10.1 are available with variable speed
Control unit motor.
2 Depending on the type of valve the The motor is connected via an internal plug/
actuator must be switched off in the socket connector (up to 16 A nominal cur-
end position by limit or torque switching. rent). This enables quick exchange of the
motor, e.g. for change of output speed.
For this purpose two independent measuring
systems (limit switching and torque Further information on page 18.
switching) are provided within the control
unit. They measure the travel or the torque
demanded at the output drive, respectively.
6
The switches signalize to the actuator con-
trols that the set tripping points have been
reached, which then switches off the motor.
The control unit may optionally be equipped
with a magnetic limit and torque transmitter.
The transmitter converts the mechanical
parameters limit and torque into continuous 1
electronic signals. In combination with the
integral controls AUMATIC tripping points
and tripping torques can be set non-intru-
sively, i.e. without using tools or opening the
control unit.

2
Gearing
3 The well proven principle of worm
gearing, sometimes combined with a
planetary gear, is used to reduce the motor
speed to the required actuator output speed.
Self-locking (refer to page 12) is achieved by
the worm gearing. Worm shaft and output
shaft with the worm wheel run in ample sized
bearings.
The sliding worm is positioned between two
stacks of springs on the worm shaft. The
worm will be moved in relation to the torque.
This axial displacement, as a measure for
the torque, is transmitted to the control unit
via lever and gear wheels.
The gear housing is filled with lubricant. This
results is maintenance free service for a long
period of time.

16
 Design principle
Electrical connection
6 The connection for motor and con-
trols up to size 16.1 are made on a
50-pole AUMA plug/ socket connector. On
larger sizes, the motor is connected to termi-
nals in the actuator.
If the plug/ socket is disconnected for mainte-
nance work, the wiring remains undisturbed.
The explosion-proof actuator types SAExC
and SARExC are provided with a special
plug/ socket connector for explosion-proof
actuators as a standard.
Further information on page 24.

Manual operation
5 For commissioning or in an emer-
gency the multi-turn actuator can be
operated with the handwheel. By operating
the red change-over lever the motor drive is
disconnected and the manual drive
engaged. Since disconnection between
motor and drive shaft is made before the
self-locking worm/ worm wheel, easy
change over to manual drive is possible even
5 if the actuator has been operated at full rated
torque.
When starting the motor the manual drive is
automatically disengaged. During electric
operation the handwheel does not rotate.

Valve attachment
4 The mounting flange is according to
EN ISO 5210 or DIN 3210.
Various output drive types are available.
Therefore it is possible to adapt to different
types of valves.

Motor protection
In order to protect the motor against
overheating thermoswitches or PTC
thermistors are embedded in the
motor windings of the 3-phase AC
and 1-phase AC and variable speed
motors. When integrated into the
control circuit, they will protect the
motor against damage due to exces-
sively high winding temperature.
Thermoswitches and PTC thermis-
tors offer a better protection than
thermal overload relays, since the
temperature rise is directly measu-
red at the motor.
The thermoswitches will interrupt the
control circuit as soon as a winding

Explosion protection
For the installation of actuators in
potentially hazardous or explosive
areas, special protective measures
are required. These are stipulated in
the European Standards EN 50 014,
50 018, 50 019 and 20 020. The PTB
(Physikalisch Technische Bundesan-
stalt, the German national test author-
ity) as a European test authority certi-
fied the conformity of the equipment USA, Canada, Switzerland, Czech
with the mentioned standards. Republic, Hungary, CIS, Poland are
also available. For the current versions

 Other information
EU-Directives
Machinery Directive
According to this directive, actuators
are not complete machines. This
means that a Certificate of Confor-
mity is not possible. However, AUMA
confirms with the Declaration of
Incorporation (on the Internet under
www.auma.com (download section))
that during the design stage the Stan-
dards mentioned in the Machinery
Directive were applied.
By mounting the actuator to other
components (valves, pipelines etc.)
a machine within the meaning of the
Directive is formed. Before commis-
sioning this machine a Certificate of
Conformity must be issued.
