Mounting On Linear Actuators - ABB PositionMaster EDP300 Operating Instruction

4.2.2

Mounting on linear actuators

For mounting on a linear actuator in accordance with DIN /
IEC 534 (lateral mounting as per NAMUR), the following
mounting kit is available:
Fig. 5
1 Screw | 2 Shim | 3 Mount bracket |
4 Lever with follower pin (for stroke adjustment 10 ... 35 mm
(0.39 ... 1.38 inch) or 20 ... 100 mm (0.79 ... 3.94 inch)) | 5 Shims |
6 Screws | 7 U-bolts | 8 Shims | 9 Nuts | 10 Screws |
11 Spring washers | 12 Clamp plates | 13 Follower guide

Attaching follower guide to actuator
Fig. 6
1. Tighten the screws so that they are hand-tight
2. Attach the follower guide (1) and clamp plates (2) with
screws (4) and spring washers (3) to the actuator stem
Mounting lever and bracket on positioner
Fig. 7
1. Attach the lever (6) to the feedback shaft (5) of the
positioner (can only be mounted in one direction due to
the cut shape of the feedback shaft).
2. Using the arrow marks (4), check whether the lever moves
within the working range (between the arrows).
3. Tighten the screw (7) on the lever so that it is hand-tight.
4. Hold the prepared positioner (with the mount bracket (1)
still loose) on the actuator so that the follower pin for the
lever enters the follower guide to determine which holes
on the positioner must be used for the mount bracket.
5. Secure the mount bracket (1) with screws (2) and shims
(3) using the relevant holes on the positioner housing.

Tighten the screws as evenly as possible to ensure
subsequent linearity. Align the mount bracket in the
oblong hole to ensure that the working range is
symmetrical (lever moves between the arrows (4).
