Issue Using the TAC I/A BACnet WorkPlace Balance Tool to balance a VAV, when requesting the box drive to Maximum flow, get error "Controller was temporarily busy. Please restart this balancing step” message. What does this mean and how to solve it? Environment BACnet  WorkPlace Flow Balance Tool MNB-V1 MNB-V2 Cause Multiple tools connected to the same VAV controller.  Resolution "Controller was temporarily busy. Please restart this balancing step” message means one of two things – One tool has control of the VAV while another is attempting to connect or the VAV is in the process of completing a balancing step while another balancing function is attempted. Flow balancing should be  accomplished with a single tool connected to a VAV controller.  

Issue Satchwell MB series 3-port Rotary Shoe Valve Body conversion for use as a 2-port Zone Valve. Environment HVAC heating and cooling installations requiring a 2-port Zone Valve having pipework connection size in excess of 3/4" B.S.P. Cause HVAC heating or cooling installations requiring a 2-port Zone Valve Body having a connection sizes in excess of the usual 3/4" B.S.P. HVAC heating or cooling installations requiring a 2-port Valve Body to be installed in place of a 3-port Valve Body originally installed.  Resolution 1  Install plumber's plug in Port 3 of MB series 3-port Rotary Shoe Valve Body. 2. Tighten plumber's plug sufficiently to ensure PN 10 rating of Valve Body is not compromised. IMPORTANT Careful consideration should be given to the use of this conversion method with 3-port Valve Bodies of Plug and Seat construction. Here only "dish nosed" or "hollow ended" plumber's plugs should be installed in Port 3 of the Valve Body. The purpose of this is to prevent fouling of the Plug / Seat assembly within the Valve Body. N.B. In preference a Satchwell VZ 2-port Plug and Seat Valve Body should be replaced by a Satchwell MZ 3-port Plug and Seat Valve Body.

Issue S-E Forta M700 Actuator unable to be mounted on S-E VGS211F Valve Body . Environment S-E Forta M700 Actuator mounted on S-E VGS211F Valve Body  Cause S-E Forta M700 Actuator unable to be mounted on S-E VGS211F Valve Body due to absence of S-E VGS211F Valve Body Spindle Adaptor. Resolution 1.  Install S-E VGS211F Valve Body Spindle Adaptor prior to installation of S-E Forta M700 Actuator. The S-E VGS211F Valve Body is supplied with a Valve Spindle Adaptor. The Adaptor is illustrated in the S-E Forta M700 Installation Instruction (OFL – 4340 – 001). It is particularly important to ensure that this Adaptor is fitted to the Valve Spindle, as its absence will prevent the M700 Actuator from being mechanically connected to the Valve Body Spindle.

Cause AVUE 5304, AVUE 5354, AVUE 5305 or AVUE 5355 Light Duty Actuator may not respond to changes in control signal due to self stroking / auto stroking procedure failing to occur when originally installed, or due to manual override having been undertaken without subsequent reset procedure having been applied. Resolution 1.  Check that 0v of 0-10v dc control signal and 0v of 24v ac power supply originate from same source. 2.  Undertake Manual Override Reset. The Manual Override Reset Button is located on the underside of the AVUE Actuator. The purpose of the Manual Override Reset Button is to cause the Actuator to self reference. A reset is required only in the following circumstances. A.  If the Manual Override Access screw on the top of the Actuator has been operated when the Actuator is powered up. B.  If it is necessary to re-align the Actuator to a point of self reference during periods of system maintenance. N.B. The AVUE is designed to reset automatically on restoration of power following a power failure.  It should be noted that it will take approximately 85 seconds (AVUE 5305 and AVUE 5355) or 110 seconds (AVUE 5304 and AVUE 5354) for the self reference procedure to be completed.

Issue S-E VZ29 / VZ39 / VZ49 Valve Body produces excessive let-by.   Environment S-E VZ29 2-port Valve Body controlled by S-E MZ20 series Actuator. S-E VZ39 3-port Valve Body controlled by S-E MZ20 series Actuator. S-E VZ49 4-port Valve Body controlled by S-E MZ20 series Actuator. Cause S-E MZ20 series Actuator Manual Override set to value other than ZERO Resolution 1.  Check S-E MZ20 series Actuator Manual Override facility is set to ZERO. 2.  If S-E MZ20 series Actuator Manual Override facility is set to ZERO then investigate Valve Body condition / duty compatibility. Instances of excessive let-by experienced with S-E Valve Bodies from the VZ29 / VZ39 / VZ49 family may result from the setting of the Manual Override facility on the S-E MZ20 series Actuator controlling it, rather than the Valve Body itself. S-E MZ20A and MZ20B Actuators include a Manual Override facility, comprising a screw, accessed through a hole in the top of the Actuator, which may be raised and lowered by means of a 3mm Allen Key inserted through the hole in the top of the Actuator. The Manual Override position is required to be set to ZERO upon manufacture.  If the screw is not set to the ZERO position prior to dispatch however, then this may result in the Valve Spindle being depressed by the amount of Manual Override applied. Where a Valve Body is letting by excessively, then initially the Actuator Manual Override setting should be checked and reset to ZERO if necessary.  

Issue Satchwell VSF or VJF Valve Body controlled by Satchwell Spring Return Actuator requires replacement. Environment Satchwell VSF or VJF Valve Body installed in Water or Steam Control Valve applications. Cause Obsolescence of Satchwell VSF or VJF Control Valve Body. Resolution STEAM APPLICATION 1.  Replace Satchwell VSF or VJF Valve Body with S-E Two-Port Flanged Valve Body. Where an existing Satchwell VSF or VJF Valve Body is utilised in a STEAM application, then the VSF or VJF Valve Body should be replaced by a suitably sized S-E VGS211F Valve Body, thus enabling steam having a steam inlet pressure up to 1300 kPa and a temperature up to 200 deg C to be controlled. It should be noted however that the face-to-face dimension and overall dimensions of each S-E Valve Body will differ to those of the Satchwell VSF or VJF Valve Body. It should also be noted that the operation of the VGS211F Valve Spindle is the reverse of that of the VSF or VJF Valve Spindle. When the VGS211F Valve Spindle is UP, or in the fully extended position, then the Valve is OPEN. Similarly, when the VGS211F Valve Spindle is DOWN, or in the fully retracted position, then the Valve is CLOSED This will therefore result in the need to replace the existing Satchwell Actuator with the correct model of S-E M700 Actuator, in order to ensure the correct operation of the Valve Body in the event of electrical power failure. It is important that the above limitations are recognised when replacing a Satchwell VSF or VJF Valve Body with a S-E VGS211F Valve Body in retrofit projects. Such limitations do not apply to new projects where a new S-E VGS211F Valve Body and a new S-E  M700 Actuator are being selected, providing of course that an Actuator having the correct spring action in the event of electrical power failure is selected. N.B. Steam Control Valves are normally required to CLOSE in the event of electrical power failure. In the case of the S-E VGS211F therefore the S-E M700 SRSD Actuator should be selected. WATER APPLICATION 1.  Replace Satchwell VSF or VJF Valve Body with S-E Two-Port Flanged Valve Body. A number of alternative models of S-E Two-Port Flanged Valve Bodies are available to replace existing Satchwell VSF or VJF Two-Port Flanged Valve Bodies. It should be noted however that the face-to-face dimension and overall dimensions of each S-E Valve Body will differ to those of the Satchwell VSF or VJF Valve Body.

Equivalent terminal identification is as follows STR612 Terminal 22 (A) = DRT3451 Terminal A STR612 Terminal 23 (C) = DRT3451 Terminal C Connection of STR612 to CZU Fan Coil Unit Temperature Controller STR612 Terminal 22 (A) – connect to CZU Terminal 9 STR612 Terminal 23 (C) – connect to CZU Terminal 10 (CZU Setpoint should be set to 10 deg C)

Issue DC1100 & DC1400 Optimiser / Compensator Controller Cold Start malfunction. Environment DC1100 Optimiser / Compensator Controller. DC1400 Optimiser / Compensator Controller Cause DC1100 & DC1400 Optimiser / Compensator malfunction preventing Cold Start procedure being undertaken.. Resolution 1.  Repeat DC1100 & DC1400 Controller Cold Start procedure. A manufacturing problem experienced with the DC1100 and DC1400 may result in difficulty applying the Cold Start procedure. Faults have been reported in respect of a number of DC1100 Controllers in particular, where difficulty has been experienced when applying the Cold Start procedure. The fault appears in those Controllers where the Enter and Exit Keys foul their respective cut-outs in the Top Cover Panel, thus preventing Cold Start from being achieved. This is due to a conflict in assembly tolerances that can cause the Keys to remain depressed after they have been pressed in, due to their being trapped by the cut-outs they should pass through. In such instances it may be necessary to undertake the Cold Start procedure a number of times before any trapped Key is released sufficiently to enable resetting of the Controller to be achieved. Actions are currently in hand to rectify this matter and the positioning of the cut-outs in the Top Cover Panel relative to the Key positions has been addressed from a design point of view. Examples of the Top Cover Panel incorporating newly dimensioned cut-outs are not due to be available for inclusion in production assemblies until Week Number 2010 45 at the earliest however. Consequently current production assemblies incorporating the existing Top Cover Panel will continue to be utilised in all newly manufactured Controllers for the moment at least. Similarly an opportunity will not arise until Week 2010 45 for any Controllers currently held in stock in S-E Sweden to be re-worked to include the new Top Cover Panel prior to their sale.

Issue S-E MD20 Actuator Clamp Drive Shaft Clip fouling LMD/AR-MBF Linkage Kit Mounting Platform inhibits Actuator rotation. Environment S-E MD20 Actuator installed on Satchwell MBF Valve Body. Cause S-E MD20 Actuator Clamp Drive Shaft Clip cut out undersized. Resolution Measure diameter of S-E MD20 Actuator Clamp Drive Shaft Clip cut out. S-E MD20 Actuator Clamp Drive Shaft Clip cut out diameter should be 47mm Replace S-E MD20 Actuator Clamp Drive Shaft Clip with another having modified cut out if dimension less than 47mm. The diameter of the cut out in the original LMD/AR-MBF Linkage Kit Mounting Platform was such that the MD20 Actuator Drive Shaft Clip could be prevented from turning freely with the Drive Shaft. The LMD/AR-MBF Mounting Platform was modified in August 2007, when the diameter of the cut out in the Mounting Platform was increased to 47mm, thus overcoming the fouling of the MD20 Actuator Drive Shaft Clip. It is possible to ascertain whether the LMD/AR-MBF Mounting Platform in use is of the original or modified design by measuring the diameter of the cut out in the Mounting Platform If the diameter of the LMD/AR-MBF Mounting Platform cut out is less than 47mm, then the MD20 Actuator Drive Shaft Clip will foul the LMD/AR-MBF Mounting Platform. The MD20 Actuator Drive Shaft Clip however is retained in a groove within the Drive Shaft and whilst the Clip may be prevented from turning freely with the Drive Shaft, the turning of the Drive Shaft itself will not be impeded.

Issue TAC Valve Body published Cv values may differ markedly to equivalent Kv values.  Environment TAC Valve Body published data utilised when sizing and selecting S-E / TAC Control Valves. Cause TAC Valve Body published Cv values based on flow rates measured in U.S. Gallons per minute rather that U.K.Gallons per minute., Resolution Check published Cv value relative to published Kv value stated for TAC Valve Body. If published Cv value is within 3% of published Kv value then Cv value may be used for sizing / selection of Valve Body. If published Cv value is up to 17% higher than Kv value then Cv value should not be used for sizing / selection of Valve Body. Cv values published in older TAC Valve Body Data Sheets should be checked before considering use in U.K. valve sizing formula. Numerous TAC Valve Body Data Sheets show that for a particular Kv value, the equivalent Cv value is approximately 17% higher than the Kv value. For example, where TAC Valve Body Data Sheet shows Kv = 10, then equivalent Cv = 11.7 or in other words Cv = Kv x 1.17 Cv values published in Satchwell Valve Body Data Sheets however show the relationship between Kv and Cv as:- Kv = Cv x 1.03 or in other words Cv = Kv x 0.97 This difference in equivalent values is due to Cv values stated in some TAC Data Sheets being based on flow rates measured in U.S. Gallons per minute, while those Cv values stated in Satchwell Data Sheets however are based on flow rates measured in U.K. Gallons per minute. If flow rates are measured in U.S. Gallons per minute, then the following conversion factor applies :- Kv = Cv x 0.86, as the U.S. Gallon is smaller than the U.K. Gallon. Taking published TAC Valve Body Data Sheet information therefore, where the Cv value is stated as 11.7 and the Kv value is stated as 10, confirms that the conversion factor Kv = Cv x 0.86 ( 11.7 x 0.86 = 10 ) has been applied, further confirming that published Cv values are in fact based on U.S. Gallons and not U.K. Gallons. Consequences of this are as follows : - If it is assumed that the published Cv value is a U.K. Cv value, when in fact it is a U.S. Cv value, and the published Cv value is then used as a basis for valve sizing and selection, then this will result in a smaller Valve Body being selected than would otherwise be the case. Consequently, once installed, the selected Valve Body will produce a much higher pressure drop and correspondingly higher authority for a given flow rate than would otherwise have been the case. In practice the installation of an undersized Control Valve can result in starvation of flow to the item of plant being controlled and the potentially costly replacement of the Valve Body for another of a larger size. Similarly, the installation of an undersized Control Valve will result in a greater pressure drop being applied to the hydraulic circuit than may be desirable and could lead to an adverse effect on the performance of the associated circulating pump. It is important to ensure therefore that where both Kv and Cv values are published for a given Valve Body, the Kv value is utilised when undertaking valve sizing and selection.  This should ensure that a Valve Body of the correct size is selected. Measures are currently in place to actively remove all references to Cv values from both S-E / TAC Data Sheets and all future editions of the S-E HVAC Valves and Actuators Catalogue.
