2. Short description
Multi-turn actuator Definition in compliance with EN 15714-2/EN ISO 5210:
A multi-turn actuator is an actuator which transmits torque to a valve for at least one
full revolution. It is capable of withstanding thrust.
AUMA multi-turn actuators PF-M25 – PF-M100 are driven by an electric motor. For
control in motor operation and for processing the actuator signals, controls are
integrated within the housing. Push buttons allow for local actuator operation. A
handwheel is provided for occasional manual operation. Manual operation is possible
without change-over.
Switching off in end positions may be either by limit or torque seating.
The self-locking of the actuator is ensured by means of the braking function. As soon
as the actuator is at standstill, the motor takes over the brake function for the first
20 seconds. This period is defined through a parameter which can be set via
Bluetooth. After this, the locking brake takes over the brake function by disconnection
from power and renewed engagement. Brake engagement generates a clicking noise
and is part of the standard operational behaviour.
The actuator performs a torque measurement. The measured values can be read
by means of the AUMA Assistant App or AUMA CDT. Measured values are only
generated during motor operation. No measured value is generated during manual
operation. The last measured value remains frozen and is displayed. This is not the
case when starting from the torque seating end position. In this case, the value is
set to zero and also displayed as zero.

Information Only smaller sizes without handwheel function are equipped with a manual drive
option via Allen key, located below the screw plug for manual emergency operation
[5].
Using the AUMA CDT software for Windows-based computers (notebooks or tablets)
and the AUMA Assistant App, actuator data can be uploaded and read, settings
can be modified and stored. The connection between computer and AUMA actuator
is established wireless via Bluetooth interface. With the AUMA Cloud, we provide
an interactive platform to collect and assess e.g. detailed device data of all actuators
within a plant.

(www.auma.com).
The following actions are at least required to ensure safe device function during
operation:
Enclosure protection IP68
After submersion:
● Check actuator.
● In case of ingress of water, locate leaks and repair. Dry device correctly and
check for proper function.
6 months after commissioning and then once a year
● Carry out visual inspection:
Cable entries, cable glands, blanking plugs, etc. have to be checked for correct
tightness and sealing. If required, tighten cable glands and blanking plugs with
torque in compliance with the manufacturer's specifications.
● Check fastening screws between actuator and gearbox/valve for tightness. If
required, fasten screws while applying the tightening torques as indicated in
chapter <Assembly>.
● When rarely operated: Perform test run.
Seals
Preventive actions to ensure the IP protection degree. The seals of seal kit S1 should
be replaced within a period of 4 – 8 years:
After 4 years: In case of outdoor installation (frequent changes of temperature and
humidity, extreme weathers)
After 8 years: In case of indoor installation (constant or virtually constant
environmental conditions)
If original AUMA screw plugs are used, original AUMA seals must also be used.
They are included with the AUMA seal kit S1.The seal kit can be ordered with AUMA.
Lubrication
● Within the device lifetime, no additional lubrication of the gear housing is required
during operation.
Lifetime
The maximum lifetime depends on the number of operating cycles or the number of
starts (refer to technical data) as well as the respectively applicable AUMA load
profiles. Distinction is made between actuators in open-close or modulating duty:
Open-close duty The load is measured by means of the number of operating cycles at a defined torque
(OPEN/CLOSE) characteristics, the AUMA load profile.
One operating cycle corresponds to 25 turns respectively to OPEN and CLOSE.
AUMA load profile:
10 % of the travel at 100 % of maximum torque.
90 % of the travel at 35 % of maximum torque.
43
PF-M25 – PF-M100
Servicing and maintenance
Modulating duty The load is measured by means of the switching frequency, e.g. the number of
starts/hour at a defined torque, the AUMA load profile.
One start corresponds to a movement of 0.25 turns in both directions.
AUMA load profile:
35 % of maximum actuator torque.
Determination Operating cycles and number of starts for PROFOX actuators can be determined
Key figures using the AUMA CDT software.
Operating cycles
The number of operating cycles can be further determined using the AUMA CDT
software and the AUMA Cloud. For this, create an actuator snapshot and upload it
to the AUMA Cloud. The AUMA Cloud menu “My devices” indicates the value for
“Number of Full Stroke Equivalent” for the actuator.
Number of starts
The number of starts in indicated in starts/h. The exact sum of this key figure is made
in the actuator and can be read via AUMA Assistant App or the AUMA CDT software
in “Operational info”.
AUMA recommendation
We recommend contacting the AUMA Service for an inspection of the actuator if one
of the following conditions is reached:
● The actuator life is more than 12 years
● The maximum number of operating cycles has been reached at a lower load
profile than specified by AUMA (for open-close duty).
● The maximum number of starts has been reached at a lower load profile than
specified by AUMA (for modulating duty).
An inspection by the AUMA Service can also be carried out using digital snapshots
from the AUMA Assistant App or the AUMA CDT software.
Mechanical position indicator
Both indicator glass and screw plug of mechanical position indicator are made of
plastic. To ensure enclosure protection and a long lifetime, both components must
be fastened at a defined torque:
Indicator glass cover: 6 Nm (special tool art. no. V004.027-02, available with AUMA)
Screw plug: 1.6 Nm
