Issue How do I identify a valve body when the brass band is missing? Product Line Field Devices Environment Valve body Cause Determine the valve body type to obtain information about the valve body.  Resolution Identify the pipe size and connection type Measure the valve stem diameter Measure the valve stroke Record any valve body casting marks Take pictures and send all information via email to Product Support.

Warning Electrostatic Discharge Required: Always discharge static electricity from your person by touching metal prior to handling any hardware. Failure to do so may result in damage to devices. Issue Replacement battery for the DC1100 / DC1400 Product Line Field Devices Environment DC1100 DC1400 Replacement Battery Cause Controller battery has failed. Resolution The battery lifetime will vary over a very wide range depending on use and temperature so cannot easily be predicted, but about 5 years under normal conditions, would be a guide. The battery in a DC1100 and a DC1400 is soldered to the underside of the CPU PCB. It is a 3.6V 150mAh NiMH battery. The factory part number is S2218121100 and the manufacturer’s part number is Varta 55615 603 940. Please Note: - Good soldering skills will be needed to replace the battery. The battery can be sourced from CPC Farnell Varta 55615603940 details at CPC Farnell

Issue Can you cap the A port or B port of a mixing or diverting valve to change the valve to a two way (straight through) valve? Product Line Field Devices Environment VB-9313 series Cause Capping A port or B port of a mixing or diverting valve to change the valve to a two way (straight through) valve Resolution Schneider Electric does not recommend this modification for the VB-9313 series, because the valves are not equal percentage and therefore will not provide good control. The valve performs as a linear valve when both ports are utilized. These curves are not additive. Total flow is determined with both ports contributing. The valve will perform as a quick acting valve if the B port is plugged and a nominally linear valve if the A port is plugged. Additional problems that can occur are: Insufficient force to close off. Two way valves usually require high actuator forces to provide close off. Valves are not designed to be tight seating. Valves are rated ANSI III therefore flow leakage through the controlled coil can be expected. Flow direction through the valve can not be reversed. Flow must oppose the plug when closing. Flow aiding the plug may create hammer by causing the plug to overcome the actuator force and slam against the seat. When converted to a two way control valve for a variable flow system, 3-way valves tend to be extremely over-sized creating poor process control. After considering the pros and cons of making this type of modification, you may choose to proceed with this modification. The performance penalties should be less in chilled water applications and higher in hot water application.

Issue Wiring configuration enabling connection of S-E Forta Actuator set in Increase / Decrease mode to early discrete Satchwell Climatronic CSC/CXR/CXT Controller. Environment S-E Forta Actuator set in Increase / Decrease mode connected to early discrete Satchwell Climatronic CSC/CXR/CXT Controller. Cause Obsolescence of previous Actuator connected to early discrete Satchwell Climatronic CSC/CXR/CXT Controller. Resolution 1.  Connect S-E Forta Actuator set in Increase / Decrease mode to early discrete Satchwell Climatronic CSC/CXR/CXT Controller.  It should be noted that when connecting a S-E Forta Actuator set in Increase / Decrease operation mode to an early discrete Satchwell Climatronic CSC/CXR/CXT Controller it may be necessary to wire the Actuator in a 24v OPEN / 24v CLOSE / 0v COMMON configuration instead of the 0v OPEN / 0v CLOSE / 24v COMMON configuration as shown in the S-E Forta Actuator Data Sheets. 2.  With S-E Forta Actuator DIL Switch No.2 set ON in Increase / Decrease mode wire to the S-E Forta Actuator terminals as follows :- 24v Supply – wire to Terminal G 0v   Supply – wire to Terminal G0 24v Open signal – wire to Terminal VH 24v Close signal – wire to Terminal VC N.B. This deviation from the standard S-E Forta Actuator installation method should be recorded in the site Operating & Maintenance manual. A 24v supply must be present across Terminals G / G0 for the S-E Forta Actuator to work satisfactorily. A 4-wire connection must be made to the S-E Forta Actuator, instead of the 3-wire connection made to any Satchwell Actuator it is replacing. It is important to ensure that the 24v Power Supply to both the S-E Forta Actuator and the Satchwell Climatronic Controller share the same 0v potential. It is also important to ensure that the 24v Power Supply is capable of providing the higher level of VA required to operate the S-E Forta Actuator compared to that of any Actuator that it may be replacing. 

Issue S-E L2SV Linkage Kit and S-E L7SV Linkage Kit compatibility with Satchwell Plug and Seat Valve Bodies. Environment Satchwell 1 series Plug and Seat 2-port and 3-port Valve Bodies. Satchwell 2 series Plug and Seat 2-port and 3-port Valve Bodies. Satchwell 3 series Plug and Seat 2-port and 3-port Valve Bodies. Satchwell 7 series Plug and Seat 2-port and 3-port Valve Bodies. Cause Use the correct S-E Linkage Kit with Satchwell Plug and Seat Valve bodies. Resolution 1.  Observe specification number of Satchwell Plug and Seat Valve Body Generally where a Satchwell AL series Linear Actuator is fitted to a Satchwell plug and seat Valve Body, the Actuator may be replaced by an equivalent S-E Forta or MV15B series Linear Actuator and appropriate S-E Linkage Kit. It should be noted however that neither the S-E L2SV Linkage Kit nor the S-E L7SV Linkage Kit will enable an S-E Forta or MV15B series Linear Actuator to be mounted on a Satchwell 7 series MZ/MZF or a Satchwell 7 series VZ/VZF plug and seat Valve Body. The internal screw threads of the Neck Adaptors included in the S-E L2SV Linkage Kit (880 – 0124 – 000) and S-E L7SV (880 – 0126 - 000) Linkage Kit are compatible with the external screw threads on Satchwell 1, 2 & 3 series Valve Body necks only. The external screw threads on Satchwell 7 series Valve Body necks however differ to those on Satchwell 1, 2 & 3 series Valve Body necks. Consequently neither the S-E L2SV Linkage Kit nor the S-E L7SV Linkage Kit will enable an S-E Forta or MV15B series Linear Actuator to be mounted on a Satchwell 7 series Valve Body. A S-E Forta series Linear Actuator may be mounted on a Satchwell 7 series Valve Body however using Linkage Kit 880 – 0135 – 000.  No equivalent Linkage Kit is currently available for use with the MV15B series Linear Actuator. The Satchwell Valve Body series may be determined from the Valve Body specification number stamped on the Valve Body Identification Collar, where the single middle digit of the specification number denotes the series. In the case of a Satchwell 7 series Valve Body for instance the single middle digit of the specification number will be the number 7 (e.g. 626 – 7 – 402)

Issue How do I select an actuator and valve combination? Environment Actuator Valve Cause Select the correct actuator and valve part numbers. Resolution Refer to the TAC Catalog F-27414-*. Read the section on valve part numbers. Select the valve body needed. Refer to Catalog F-27382-*. Read through the actuator selection for MA, MC, MF, MK, MM, Mp, and MS to identify the desired actuator. Refer to TAC Catalog F-27414-*. find the page with the chosen actuator valve combination. Verify from the close off table that the actuator will meet the valve performance requirements. Turn to the actuator assembly code table and select the assembly code needed to complete the valve assembly number. ie: Vx-XXXX-XXX-X-XX. Order valve. If valve is not available as a factory assembly, order the individual parts and field assemble. The valve close off table provides the correct linkage kit required to couple the actuator and valve body, not all actuators require linkage kits.
