INTRODUCTION This instruction manual contains important information regarding the installation, operation, maintenance and storage for HP
Series Rack and Pinion Pneumatic Actuator.
HP series actuators are compact, high cycle and high quality. The pneumatic double rack & pinion actuator is specifically
designed to meet the demanding needs of the quarter turn valve automation market. HP actuators provide a wide range of
torque outputs to suit quarter turn ball, butterfly, plug and damper valves, together with the APL range of valve position
monitors for complete valve automation solutions.
Quality has been our primary concept in actuator development, the latest manufacturing technologies have been employed to
provide both product quality and high quality performance on every HP actuator produced.

WARNING Actuator must be isolated both pneumatically and electrically before disassembly. Before mounting or disassembling the
actuator, consult the relevant sections of this manual. Do not operate the actuator using inflammable, oxidising, corrosive,
explosive or unstable gases or liquids. For actuators installed in potentially explosive zones, make sure that the internal parts of
the actuator cannot come into contact with the external atmosphere. It is important that the actuator should only be used
within pressure limits indicated in our technical specifications. Operating the actuator over pressure limits will damage internal
parts as well as cause damage to the housing. Operating the actuator over temperature limits will damage internal and
external components (disassembly of spring return actuator may become dangerous). Operating the actuator in corrosive
environments with incorrect protection may damage the internal and external parts. Do not disassemble individual spring
cartridges. Disassembly may result in personal injury. Isolate all air lines and make sure that actuator air connection is vented
before installation or servicing of the actuator. Do not remove end caps or disassemble the actuator while the actuator is
pressurised. Before installing to a valve, make sure that the rotation of the actuator are the same and that the position
indicator orientation is also correct.
