Camflex Mounting - GE FVP110 Maintenance Manual

GE Energy
To install:
1. Place the mounting bracket by turning the bracket so that side that mounts to the FVP
(with the off-center hole) has more space to the right of the hole when facing the
actuator.
2. Mount the FVP mounting bracket to the valve actuator using two (2) 5/16 - 18 UNC
flat-head cap screws. Unless otherwise specified the FVP is mounted with the
actuator/valve in the normal upright position with the lettering on actuator right side up
(Figure 27).
3. Bolt the valve side lever to the valve position take-off shaft using a 1/4 - 28 UNF cap
screw, spacer and washer. The spacer goes between the take off shaft and lever, and
the washer under the head of the cap screw. On:
❑
Camflex and Varimax valves, orient the valve side lever 90° from the valve position
indicator and securely tighten the cap screw.
❑
Ball and butterfly valve actuators, orient the valve side lever so that it is midway
between the two bracket mounting holes (45° from horizontal) and tighten the cap
screw. Alternatively, for all rotary mountings, the actuator can be pressurized to
mid-stroke and the valve side lever secured in a horizontal position.
4. Clamp the feedback lever to the shaft. A travel stop is attached to the feedback shaft
to prevent an over-rotation of the shaft. When installing the FVP feedback lever, make
sure that you install it on the travel stop.The flat side on the FVP shaft must always
face the pneumatic block with the lever facing the cover. When using a standard lever,
the orientation of the lever to the FVP is set by the clamping screw's location relative
to flat on shaft. Leave approximately 1/16" space between the FVP housing and the
back of the feedback lever.
There is a label on the back of the FVP, located to the right of the travel stop that states:
±55° Max.
