SSD Series Electronic Valve Actuator

(For use with 1/2-Inch to 1-1/4-inch Pressure Independent Control Valves)

Item No: 129-540, Rev EA Page 1 of 6

Product Description

The SSD Actuator requires a 24 Volt power supply and

a 0 to 10 Vdc or floating control signal to control the

1/2-inch to 1-1/4-inch Siemens 599 Series Pressure

Independent Control Valves with a 1/10-inch (2.5 mm),

1/5-inch (5 mm), or 7/32-inch (5.5 mm) stroke.

Warning/Caution Notations

WARNING:

Personal injury/loss of life

may occur if you do not follow

a procedure as specified.

CAUTION:

Equipment damage may

occur if you do not follow a

procedure as specified.

Required Tools

• 3 mm hex key

• Small flat-blade screwdriver

• Small, Phillips screwdriver

• Wire stripper

Expected Installation Time

20 minutes

Prerequisites

Figure 1. Acceptable Mounting Positions.

NOTE: Vertical mounting position recommended.

Figure 2. Acceptable Mounting Position with Valve.

NOTE: Vertical mounting is recommended.

WARNINGS:

• If mounting the actuator to a valve

already in line, either close the shut-off

valves in the piping (upstream first,

then downstream), or switch off the

pump to allow the differential pressure

in the valve to drop.

• Disconnect the controller power before

replacing the actuator. See Removing

an SSD61.5U/SSD81.5U Actuator

from a Valve.

CAUTION:

• Before applying power, make certain a

valve is connected to the actuator.

• If applying power to the actuator when

a valve is not connected, the actuator

will respond to a control signal and the

shaft will extend until it reaches its

maximum end stop. Thereafter, it will

not respond to any signal.

• If this occurs, disconnect the power.

Insert a 3mm hex key into the manual

override feature and retract the

actuator to the zero position. Verify the

actuator shaft is retracted completely.

See Figure 15.

• Connect a valve to the actuator,

reapply the power, and the actuator

will return to normal operation.

Installation Instructions Document No. 129-540 May 9, 2019 Installation Mounting an SSD61U/SSD81U Actuator on a Valve 1. Remove the protective plastic cap from the valve. See Figure 3. Figure 6. Tighten the Screw. 7. Place the actuator on the valve and firmly hand-tighten the coupling clockwise. See Figure 7. Figure 3. Remove Plastic Cap. 2. Using a 3 mm hex key, turn the manualposition indicator on the top of the actuator to 0. 3. Attach the wires to the terminal plug.

Insert flex conduit into flex conduit adapter and secure in place with wiring retention screw. NOTE: Insert wiring retention screw in hole of the flex conduit adapter. (The hole nearest the wiring terminals is to secure the terminal cover in place.) c. Route wiring through flex conduit for wiring terminations.

Installation Instructions Document No. 129-540 May 9, 2019 Calibration Stroke SSD61U/SSD61.5U The SSD61.5U writes its calibration stroke parameters to non-volatile memory on the first start-up of the actuator. Successive start-ups bypass the calibration stroke unless the memory is manually cleared. If installing the actuator on a different valve (such as on a replacement valve), manually clear the calibration stroke from memory as follows: 1. 2. 3. Figure 12. SSD61U/SSD61.5U Wiring Diagram.
