‘anti-seize’ lubricant be applied to the adapter to
ease assembly.
3. Mount the actuator onto the valve stem.
4. Install the furnished mounting studs by threading
studs all the way into the actuator base. It may be
necessary to manually operate the actuator to align
the valve and actuator bolt patterns.

Bray offers an optional heater as a field or factory
installable option for the Series 70 actuator to prevent
condensation from forming inside the actuator. This
PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) style heater
has a unique temperature - resistance characteristic.
The heater self-regulates by increasing its electrical
resistance relative to its temperature. The heater does
not require external thermostats or switches to control
its heat output.

Figure 15. Fixed auxiliary switches installed in a S70 actuator.

All Series 70 actuators can be fit with one set of fixed

auxiliary switches. These are a single set of switches
which activate 3° before the travel limit switches.
Adjustable auxiliary (Mid-Travel) switches can be fit
as single independent switches or in sets. If fitted as a
set, one of the switches in the set will activate 3° before
the other. Each switch set is activated independently
from other switch sets. Figure 16. Heater installed on a S70 switch plate.

The heater is mounted through a hole provided in
the switch plate.
1. Place the heater snugly into its mounting bracket
until approx. 1/2 to 1” is left above the bracket.
2. Slip the heater into its mounting hole.
3. Align the fastening hole in the bracket with the

heater to the switch plate.
4. Connect the heater wires to the terminal strip as
indicated on the wiring diagram.

Indication of Remote Control

Bray offers two field or factory installable kits to indicate
if a process controller has remote control of the Series
70 actuator. Remote control of the actuator can be
interrupted if the actuator handwheel has been left
engaged or if a local control station has been switched
out of remote mode.
A dry contact (voltage free) mechanical switch provides
indication if the handwheel is engaged. Alternatively, an
additional dry contact (voltage free) mechanical switch
can be placed in Local Control Station to provided
indication if the local control station is switched out
of remote mode. Both kits can be installed and wired
in series to provide dual indication. Dual indication
