This manual contains the information needed
to install, operate, and maintain Beck Group 11
actuators, manufactured by Harold Beck & Sons,
Inc. of Newtown, Pennsylvania.
The Group 11 actuator is a powerful control
package designed to provide precise position
control of dampers, valves, fluid couplings and other
devices requiring up to 1,800 lb-ft (2 440 N•m) of
actuator torque. Exceptionally stable and trouble-
free, these rotary actuators are in use throughout
the world in valve and damper applications.
INTRODUCTION
IMPORTANT: This manual contains information
that will make installation simple, efficient,
and trouble-free. Please read and understand
the appropriate sections in this manual before
attempting to install or operate your actuator.
This manual, along with Beck Manual Supplement
80-1100-14, is provided with applicable Group 11
& Group 11E hazardous location actuators.

Action on Loss of Power
Stays in place.
Action on Loss of Input
Signal (Power On)
Stays in place or moves to full travel or zero position. Drives to any
preset position with optional switch assembly on Models 11-__7 and
11-__8. Field adjustable.
Stall Protection and
Annunciation (Optional)
If the motor tries to run in one direction for more than 300 seconds, the
Stall Protection Module will shut off power to the motor and a solid state
relay will change state. The relay is rated for 120 V ac or dc, 10 VA.
Limit Switches
Two SPDT, one for CW and one for CCW limit of travel. Actuators
having position sensing capability (Options 5 thru 8), have over-
travel limit switches set 1/2° outside the CW and CCW travel range
(typically, -0.5° and 100.5° or 90.5°). Actuators without position
sensing (Options 3 and 4), have end-of-travel limit switches set at the
CW and CCW travel range (typically, 0° and 100° or 90°).
Auxiliary Switches
Up to four 6 A, 120 V ac (0.5 A, 125 V dc) switches available.
Switches are labeled S1-S4 and are cam-operated, field-adjustable.
S1 and S4 are set to operate just before reaching the CCW travel
limit. S2 and S3 are set to operate just before reaching the CW travel
limit.
Handswitch
Permits local electrical operation, independent of controller signal.
Standard on all units. An auxiliary contact is available as an option for
remote auto indication (rated 2.5 A at 120 V ac; 2.0 A at 28 V dc).
Handwheel
Provides manual operation without electrical power.
Motor Assembly
120 V ac, single-phase, no-burnout, non-coasting motor has instant
magnetic braking. Requires no contacts or moving parts. Can remain
stalled for approx. 4 days (cumulative) without damaging the gear train.
Gear Train
High-efficiency, precision-cut, heat-treated alloy steel and ductile iron
spur gears. Interchangeable gear modules permit field change of
torque and timing.
Mechanical Stops
Prevent overtravel during automatic or manual operation.
Enclosure
Precision-machined, aluminum alloy castings coated with
corrosion-resistant polyurethane paint, provide a rugged, dust-tight,
weatherproof enclosure. Actuators designed for hazardous classified
locations are also available. Type 4X; IP66/IP68, 3 meters/48 hours*.
*Internal water damage is not covered by warranty.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Installation and service instructions
are for use by qualified personnel
only. To avoid injury and electric
shock, do not perform any servicing
other than that contained in this
manual. Please read and understand
the appropriate sections in this
manual before attempting to install
or operate your actuator.
STORAGE INFORMATION
Beck actuators should be stored in a clean,
dry area where the temperature is between -40°
and 85°C (-40° to 185°F).
Damage due to moisture while in storage is
not covered by warranty.
INSTALLATION—MECHANICAL
There are many considerations regarding
proper
mechanical
installation—see
the
instructions beginning on page 16 for details. Refer
to the outline dimension drawings for physical
dimensions and required clearances.
VALVE ACTUATOR INSTALLATIONS
CAUTION
Working with valves installed in a
pipeline can be dangerous. Take
appropriate precautions when
mounting to installed valves.
INSTALLATION—ELECTRICAL
See the instructions beginning on page 19 for
details regarding electrical installation.
CAUTION
For maximum safety, the Beck
actuator body should be grounded.
Use the green grounding screw
in the wiring compartment of the
actuator.
CAUTION
Always close covers immediately
after installation or service to prevent
moisture or other foreign matter
from entering the actuator.

INSTALLATION—MECHANICAL
Beck Group 11 actuators may be installed in
any convenient orientation, because the gearing
does not require an oil bath. Refer to the outline
dimension drawings for physical dimensions and
required clearances.
VALVE ACTUATOR
INSTALLATIONS
CAUTION
Working with valves installed in a
pipeline can be dangerous. Take
appropriate precautions when
mounting to installed valves.
Whenever an actuator is being mounted
on a valve, refer to the valve manufacturer's
maintenance manual for specific valve-related
instructions. Consult the Beck Valve Mounting
Specification sheet shipped with the actuator for
specific instructions on assembly of the Beck
actuator and mounting hardware to the valve. It is
good practice to remove the valve from service if
possible.
UNITIZED VALVE/ACTUATOR
ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION
Inspect the valve and pipe flanges to ensure
they are clean. Be certain that other pipelines in
the area are free from pipe scale or welding slag
that could damage the gasket surfaces.
Carefully lift the assembly and position the
valve in the pipeline. Install and tighten the
flange bolts according to the valve and/or gasket
manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE: The valve may have undergone
temperature variations in shipment. This
could result in seepage past the stem
seals. Refer to the valve manufacturer’s
maintenance
instructions
for
packing
adjustments, if required.
FOOT MOUNTED ACTUATOR
INSTALLATIONS
Actuators may be mounted in any orientation.
If mounting near obstructions such as pipes or
beams, take into consideration access to the field
wiring terminals, enclosure cover clearances, and
the output shaft. Refer to the outline dimension
drawings for the clearance necessary to remove
covers.
Before the actuator is bolted into place, the
mounting surface must be shimmed for flatness
to within 0.020 inches. Each shim must support
at least 75% of the mounting foot surface area
(recommended shim size is 4 square inches or
larger). Improper shimming or mounting can
damage the actuator mounting feet.
If the actuator is to be bolted to a mounting
plate, the plate must be rigid and must not yield to
the stresses created from operating the actuator.
If the mounting plate is not rigid or the mounting
bolts are not sufficiently tightened, damage to the
actuator housing could result. A rigid, vibration-
free surface will generally prolong the life of the
actuator’s components. The mounting plate
should be at least as thick as the diameter of the
mounting bolts.
Mounting bolts should be hex head steel, zinc
plated (HHSZP) Grade 2 or better and sized as
shown in the table below. The bolts should be
torqued appropriately for the application.

LINKAGE REQUIREMENTS
(IF APPLICABLE)
For best results, the linkage should be
designed in advance. In most applications, the
best control will result when the linkage is adjusted
so that the full 100° travel of the Beck actuator
shaft is used, even though the actuatorn lever may
travel less than 100°. The general requirements
for a good linkage are:
1. It must be rigid enough to carry the link thrust
without bending or deforming.
2. It must have a built-in means of adjustment so
that the length of the connecting link can be
changed a small amount.
3. Rod end bearings, similar to those furnished on
the Beck crank arm, should be used at both
ends of the connecting link. This type of device
permits small angular misalignments and helps
prevent binding of the linkage.
4. The Beck crank arm radius must be calculated
so that the arm will move through a 100° arc
and the actuatorn lever will move through its
correct arc.
5. The actuator and driven shafts must be
parallel and the linkage should be in a plane
perpendicular to the shafts. See the example
of a parallel linkage arrangement at right.
Z-Linkage arrangements (where linkage ends
are on opposite sides of the parallel between
the actuatorn shaft and actuator output shaft)
are not recommended.
LINK-ASSIST™ REPORT
The Beck Link-Assist™ computer program
optimizes the linkage configuration for the
application load. It ensures proper setup and
operation of the actuator. Contact your Beck
Sales Engineer to take advantage of Beck’s
Link-Assist™ program. Additional Link-Assist™
information is available on the Beck website:

LINKAGE KITS AVAILABLE
Beck linkage kits are made to accommodate a
wide variation in linkage lengths without requiring
modification of end fittings.
Hex Linkage kits are available for applications
with linkage length requirements between 9" (229
mm) and 26" (660 mm). Each hex linkage kit
comes complete with a rod end, studs, threaded
hex bar, and jam nut hardware.
To order hex linkage kits, first obtain the
approximate overall linkage length “A” in the hex
linkage figure above. Select the kit part number
from the table on the left. For lengths beyond
those listed in the table, contact your Beck sales
engineer.
Pipe linkage kits are available for longer linkage
length requirements and include the essential
linkage end connections, rod end, studs, and jam
nut hardware. Schedule 40 pipe is not included
and must be cut to length and threaded in the field
(see table above, for instructions to calculate pipe
length). To simplify installation of the pipe link,
the kit accepts NPT right-hand threads on both
ends of the pipe. Left-hand threads are internal
to the linkage kit assembly, making final length
adjustments quick and easy.
To order pipe linkage kits, first obtain the
approximate overall linkage length “A” in the figure
above. Select the kit part number from the table
above. For lengths beyond those listed in the
table, contact your Beck sales engineer.

LINKAGE INSTALLATION
The following procedure is recommended to
couple the linkage between the Group 11 actuator
and the actuatorn shaft:
1. Position the actuatorn shaft to the fully
closed position.
2. Set the actuatorn shaft lever to its required
starting angle (predetermined with Link-
Assist™).
3. Remove the rod end from the Beck crank
arm. Attach to the connecting link.
4. Adjust
the
connecting
link
to
the
predetermined length.
5. Connect the connecting link to the actuatorn
lever at the predetermined radius .
6. Set the crank pin (or rod end screw on 11-15_,
see appropriate outline dimension drawing)
on the Beck crank arm to the predetermined
radius. This is done by loosening the crank
pin screws and sliding the crank pin to the
predetermined position (none on 11-15_).
Tighten the crank pin screws to the appropriate
torque.
7. Loosen the crank arm clamping screws .
CAUTION
The crank arm will pop free, allowing
adjustment for 360° around the shaft.
8. Position the actuator’s output shaft to its
fully closed limit.
9. Swing the crank arm into position and
assemble the connecting link to the crank arm
crank pin. Tighten the rod end nut to the
appropriate torque (see table next page).
10.Tighten the crank arm screws evenly, in a
cross-pattern (if applicable), to the appropriate
torque (see outline dimension tables beginning
on page 6).
11.Lubricate the rod end bearings.
Carefully move the actuator’s output shaft to
the fully open (maximum Demand signal) position.
Check that no binding occurs between the linkage,
crank arm, driven shaft lever, and surrounding
obstructions. Also observe that the actuatorn
shaft rotates the proper amount. Ensure that the
actuator reaches the proper limit and shuts off.
If binding in the linkage occurs due to too
much travel of the actuatorn lever, travel can be
reduced by shortening the Beck actuator crank
arm radius. Return the actuator to the fully closed
position. Loosen the crank arm crank pin screws,
and the linkage stud-coupling lock nuts. To make
fine length adjustments, while rotating the linkage
move the crank pin to a shorter radius position.
To adjust the linkage length, it is preferable to
use the stud couplings. The couplings have right-
hand and left-hand threads, so it is not necessary to
disconnect the ends to make a length adjustment.
Be careful not to expose more than 7” (178 mm) of
stud between the rod end and coupling.
CAUTION
The thread engagement depth in
the couplings and rod ends must be
greater than 1.25 x the thread diameter.
Tighten crank pin screws and linkage lock
nuts, and once again, check operation to confirm
that no binding occurs between the linkage and
crank arm, driven lever arm, or surrounding
obstructions. Further travel adjustments can be
made by repeating the above steps.
Tighten all lock nuts and screws to the specified
torque value (see outline dimension tables).
Do not change limit switch settings to obtain
desired valve or damper travel; this will adversely
affect actuator operation.

POWER QUALITY
Power quality disturbances such as power
outages, transient voltages, harmonic distortions,
and electrical noise will adversely affect your
actuator performance. Protecting your actuator
from these conditions can reduce downtime and
promote longer life for the equipment. Following
the industry accepted standards below will help
protect your actuator.
a Select wiring materials according to the
correct ampacity ratings dictated by national
and local regulations.
a Shielded, twisted pair cables can be used for
signal connections to avoid being affected by
electrical noise. These signal wires, based
on Noise Susceptibility Level (NSL) per
IEEE-518, fall into the level 1 classification.
A braided shield will be more effective than
a wrapped foil shield. Signal wire shields
should be connected to the actuator casting
grounding screw. If grounding at the signal
source is required, then the shield should not
be grounded at the actuator.
a Raceways such as conduits and trays must
be grounded at both ends to properly meet
immunity requirements.
a An AC power ground connection should be
made between the power source and the Beck
actuator. Grounding connections including
wire and metal conduit are permitted, but the
actuator-grounding conductor may not be
connected to a structured metal frame of a
building.
a Surge suppression equipment that meets
Underwriters Laboratory (UL) Standard 1449
may be used to protect against transient
voltage conditions.
a Power Conditioners may be used to regulate
the supply voltage and maintain a constant
voltage level. They are helpful in protection
against voltage sags and swells, as well as
some measure of electrical noise protection.
a Harmonic filters may be used to minimize the
effects of supply voltage waveform distortions
and are used in applications that incur a large
amount of high-frequency electronic noise.
CAUTION
Always close covers immediately
after installation or service to prevent
moisture or other foreign matter
from entering the actuator.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Two 1” N.P.T. conduit connections are provided
for power and signal wiring to the actuator. A sealant
must be used on threaded conduit connections to
keep moisture out. Conduits should be routed
from below the actuator so that condensation and
other contaminants entering the conduit cannot
enter the actuator.
Power and signal wires should be routed to
the actuator separately and be either shielded
cables or installed in conductive conduit and/or
cable trays.
Refer to the wiring diagram furnished with
your Beck actuator for proper AC power and signal
connections. The customer must supply 120 V ac to
power the actuator (standard configuration). The
120 V ac line connects to terminal C and neutral to
terminal B. Other available power options include
208, 240, 380, 415, 480 & 575 V ac.
It is advisable to provide normal short circuit
protection on the AC power line. A copy of the
wiring diagram is shipped with each actuator and
is fastened to the inside of the terminal block cover.
If there is no wiring diagram available, you may
obtain a copy from Beck by providing the serial
number of your actuator.
Connection of a 4-20 mA Demand signal
should be made to terminals AA (+) and BB (–).
For maximum safety, the Beck actuator body
should be grounded. Use the green grounding
screw in the wiring compartment of the actuator.
TERMINAL SCREW TORQUES
Each terminal screw should be torqued to the
proper specification upon landing the wire.

The terminal block is located in a separate,
gasketed compartment at the top of the actuator.
Line voltage connections are made on terminal
designations A through V and are oriented at a
right angle from the low voltage signaling terminals
designated AA through EE.
Actuators equipped with optional transformers
to accommodate popular voltages include an
additional terminal strip and fuse for power wiring
(with the exception of the 240 volt option). See
optional transformer wiring connections at right.
Terminal screws will accept standard spade or
ring terminals, as well as bare wire. Terminals A
through V are size #8, and terminals AA through
EE are size #6. Optional transformer terminal
screws (designated 1, 2, & 3) are size #10 for all
models except 11-1__ which are #8. All terminals
on all actuators will accept up to #12 AWG (3.31
mm2) with one exception. Actuator models 11-2__,
11-3__ and 11-4__ may use up to #10 AWG wire on
the optional transformer terminals (1–3).
Typical wiring connections for each control
option are shown below and on the following
page. Each actuator can be ordered with up to four
optional auxiliary switches (wiring connections are
described in the Configuration/Calibration section).

Customer may supply two additional wires to
monitor the analog position feedback signal (see
pages 23 and 24 for connections). The actuator’s
feedback circuit power supply is derived from the
120 V ac line, so the feedback signal must be
wired to a “4-wire” type non-powered analog input.

INPUT SIGNAL OPTIONS
Beck actuators configured for milliamp or DC
analog modulating applications include an Electronic
Signal Receiver (ESR-5) board. Several control
options are available with the ESR-5, such as
operating more than one actuator with a single signal
source.
The instructions below apply to applications
which require a signal change or to situations
calling for operation of multiple actuators from a
common demand Demand signal.
Input Range Change to ESR-5
If it is necessary to change the Demand signal
range, jumpers must be removed (and, in one
case, a resistor added) as per the table below. See
the figure on page 41 for component locations.
Series Operation
Beck actuators can be connected in series from
the same signal for concurrent operation. Care must
be taken to keep the polarity correct in each actuator’s
input terminals. Two or three actuators may usually
be connected in series. The number of actuators
that may be connected in series is limited only by the
controller’s (signal source) capability to feed current
into the total resistance of the circuit involved. Consult
the controller manufacturer’s recommendations.
No change is required to the actuator calibration
for series operation. An interruption in the circuit
will actuate loss of Demand signal (L.O.S.) on the
actuators in the circuit.
Parallel Operation
Beck actuators can be connected in parallel to
the same Demand signal for concurrent operation.
Up to four actuators may be connected in parallel.
For parallel operation on a 4–20 mA Demand
signal, use ESR-5 board no. 13-2246-05 in each
actuator and add a resistor across input terminals AA
and BB on one of the Beck actuators. The resistor
value* should be as follows:
2 actuators = 261Ω resistor
3 actuators = 270Ω resistor
4 actuators = 280Ω resistor
*Resistor values will vary for other Demand signals,
please consult the factory.
Note that a minor span adjustment is required
for each actuator in parallel. An interruption in the
circuit to one actuator will not prevent the other
actuators from functioning, but there will be a slight
calibration shift.

INSTALLATION Wiring
Split Range Operation
Two or three Beck actuators may be operated
over their full range by a portion of the controller’s
output signal range. The most common
arrangement involves the parallel operation of
two actuators operating on equal halves of the
Demand signal range. See the following example:
If a 4–20 mA control signal is used, the
first actuator would move 100% of its stroke on
a signal range of 4–12 mA, while the second
operates on the 12–20 mA portion of the
signal. In this case, the ESR-5 boards are the
same as would be used for parallel operation
(13-2246-05), but calibrated to the range
required for each actuator. A resistor must be
added across input terminals AA and BB on
one of the Beck actuators to produce a span
between 2 and 6 volts across each board for
its active portion of the range; for this example,
use a 487Ω resistor.*
Follow the steps for calibrating the Demand
signal, page 38, for each actuator unit, using
half span values for the Demand signal. Use
the proper starting point for each half-range
when setting the zero; 4 mA and 12 mA. Before
setting the zero on the second actuator (12
mA), cut R35. See the figure on page 41 for
its location on the board.
When three actuators are to be operated on
equal portions of the Demand signal, the 4–20 mA
range would split into 4–9.33 mA, 9.33–14.67 mA,
and 14.67–20 mA signals. A 487Ω resistor* may
be used. Proceed as in the case of the 2-way split,
first setting the span, then the zero. When setting
the ESR-5 board in the first actuator, set the zero
at 4 mA. Then, on the second actuator cut R35
and set its zero at 9.33 mA. Before setting zero
in the board of the third actuator, short out R34 by
adding a jumper, adjust its zero at 14.67 mA, cut
resistors R35 & R36, then remove the jumper from
R34. Check operation of all actuators by running
the Demand signal through its complete range.
In a split range configuration, connect terminals
E and F (L.O.S. wire) to prevent undesired
“stay-in-place” operation of the second and, if
applicable, third actuator due to fast downward
signal changes.
*Resistor values will vary for other Demand signals,
please consult the factory.
80-1100-00, Rev. 03.2

START-UP
NOTE: All Beck actuators are shipped from the
factory ready for installation. Each actuator
is set-up and calibrated to the customer’s
specifications that were written into the
equipment order. Electrical adjustments are
generally not required before placing the
actuator in operation.
START-UP INSTRUCTIONS
After the actuator is mounted and its wiring
connections are made, it is ready to be tested for
proper operation.
Turn on the power supply. Operate the
actuator with the Handswitch and run it through
its full stroke, both directions. Observe that the
actuatorn device travels through its desired stroke.
If satisfactory, set Handswitch to the “AUTO”
position.
If the actuator is to be operated with automatic
control, turn on the controller and operate the
actuator by varying the control signal. Check
that the damper or valve strokes in the proper
direction for a change in control signal. If it does
not, first check for proper wiring connections and
verify control signal at the actuator. If the wiring is
correct, then change the direction of output shaft
rotation (see page 33).
If the actuator is to be push-button actuated,
(options 3, 4, 5, or 6) operate the actuator using
the Handswitch and observe that direction of
travel is correct. When travel of the actuatorn
device is satisfactory with reference to the control
signal or the push-buttons, the unit is ready for
operation.
80-1100-00, Rev. 03.2
28
OPERATION
HOUSING
Beck electric actuators have individual cast
aluminum compartments for each of the five main
components: The control motor, wiring terminal
block, drive train, electronic signal receiver, and
control end. Gasketed covers and sealed shafts
make the actuators ideally suited to outdoor and
high humidity environments.
Heavy cast mechanical stops built into the
housing are designed to prevent accidental over-
travel damage during manual cycling, and ensure
that proper orientation is maintained be tween the
output shaft and the feedback system.
CONTROL MOTOR
The Beck control motor is a synchronous
inductor motor which operates at a constant
speed of 72 RPM or 120 RPM in synchronism
with the line frequency.
Motors are able to reach full speed within 25
milliseconds and stop within 20 milliseconds;
actual starting and stopping times will vary with
load.
Beck motors have double grease-sealed
bearings and require no maintenance for the life
of the motor.
GEAR TRAIN
The gear train is a four-stage reduction, spur
gear drive constructed with only heat-treated alloy
steel and ductile iron gears for durability and long
life.
The actuator train consists of the control motor
and Handwheel, reduction gears, main gear, output
shaft, and crank arm. The main gear / output shaft
and third stage gears are common to all units of
a particular actuator model. The second and first
stage gears are part of the field-interchangeable
gear module. Different combinations of gear
modules and actuator motors determine the
actuator’s output torque and timing. See table on
page 56 for details.
On standard models, the output shaft is
limited by mechanical stops to 108° of rotation
(98º on the 11-160). Optional main gear / output
shaft assemblies are available that permit multi-
revolution output rotation. Mechanical stops are
not included on these models.
Mechanical transmission of output shaft
position to the control end is provided by a right
angle gear set driven directly by the output shaft.
SELF-LOCKING
MECHANISM (SLM)
An integral part of every control motor is the
self-locking mechanism. This mechanical device
couples the motor to the gear train and transmits
full motor torque when rotated in either direction.
When the motor is de-energized, the SLM
instantaneously locks and holds the output shaft
in position.
HANDWHEEL
Every Beck actuator is furnished with a
Handwheel to permit manual operation of the
valve or damper without electrical power. Its
solid construction design includes no spokes or
projections, and turns at a safe, slow speed. The
Handwheel is located at the rear of the control
motor housing. The Handwheel is coupled directly
to the motor shaft and rotates when the motor
runs. Manual operation of the Handwheel (with
electric Handswitch in “STOP” position) turns the
motor and the rest of the actuator train without
incorporating a clutch.
HANDSWITCH
A local electric Handswitch is provided on
Beck actuators to permit operation at the valve
or damper, indepen dent of the controller. As a
safety feature, the Handswitch is designed so that
the controller can operate the actuator only when
it is in the “AUTO” position. The sequence of the
Handswitch is: “AUTO”, “STOP”, “CW”, “STOP”,
“CCW”.
In the “AUTO” position, two contacts are closed
and the ESR-5 or external controller contact
completes the control circuit.
In the “CW” or “CCW” positions, contacts are
closed to operate the actuator independently of
the controller.
In the “STOP” position, all contacts remain
open.
SWITCHES
Two over-travel limit switches (control options
5 thru 8) or two end-of-travel limit switches
(control options 3 and 4) and up to four optional
auxiliary switches are provided on Beck actuators.
Switch cams are clamped onto the control shaft
which rotates in relation to the output shaft. Cam
position is field-adjustable. Switches are rated
6 A, 120 V ac. All auxiliary switch connections
are made on the terminal block.
80-1100-00, Rev. 03.2
29
CONTROL OPTIONS
Two basic types of control are available:
120 V ac contact closure (options 3, 4, 5, and 6)
and milliamp or DC analog modulating (options 7
and 8). Each option is described below.
Open / close option 3: For simple 2-position
control using manual push-buttons or an automatic
controller. Preset end-of-travel limit switches
provide open / close operation upon closure of an
automatic controller or manually operated switch.
Travel limits are adjustable over the full range of
travel and provide precise positioning repeatability.
Multi-position option 4: Adjustable cam
operated switches provide up to six discrete stop
positions upon closure of an automatic controller or
manually operated switch. Three, four, five, and six
predetermined position settings are possible, with
precise positioning repeatability.
Direct AC control option 5: Provides continuous
positioning capability over the full range of actuator
travel by direct AC control from either an automatic
controller or manually operated switches. Includes
a 1,000 ohm film potentiometer for remote feedback.
Direct AC control option 6: Provides
continuous positioning capability over the full range
of actuator travel by direct AC control from either an
automatic controller or manually operated switches.
Includes a Contactless Position Sensor (CPS-5) for
feedback and position indication.
Modulating option 7: For automatic operation in
response to milliamp or dc analog control; includes a
film potentiometer for position sensing and feedback
to the Electronic Signal Receiver (ESR-5).
Modulating option 8: For automatic operation,
as in option 7 above; includes Contactless Position
Sensor (CPS-5) for position sensing and feedback
to the ESR-5.
INPUT: ELECTRONIC SIGNAL
RECEIVER (ESR-5)
Beck modulating actuators are equipped with
a precision electronic control module (ESR-5) to
receive conventional 4–20 mA or 1–5 V dc control
signals directly, eliminating the need for contact
protection devices, relays, switches, and reversing
starters.
The ESR-5 provides control with either analog
or microprocessor control systems, and is designed
to operate continuously in temperatures up to 185°F
(85°C).
The ESR-5 requires a position feedback signal
from either the CPS-5 monitor / isolator board or a
film potentiometer. This feedback signal is compared
to the Demand signal. A difference in these signals
(the error) is amplified and used to actuate either of
two electronic motor power switches. These switches
drive the motor in the proper direction to force the
error to zero. The Demand signal is adjustable
from 50% to 400% of the 4-volt span, with the zero
adjustable from -100% to +275% of span.
The ESR-5 permits two or more Beck actuators
to be operated by a single signal source, for series,
parallel, or split range operation. See page 25 for
details on these control options.
If the Demand signal to the Beck actuator is
changed, the ESR-5 allows for easy modification to
accept a different signal current. An optional “Relay
board” version of the ESR-5 permits operation
on low current 120 V ac with an external diode /
resistor module or low voltage DC Demand signals
(5 to 24 V dc). This topic is covered on page 42.
POSITION FEEDBACK:
CONTACTLESS POSITION
SENSOR (CPS-5)
The CPS-5 provides a continuous feedback
signal proportional to the position of the actuator’s
output shaft. The position sensing function of the
CPS-5 is provided by a ferrite magnetic sensing
element. An electronic circuit translates the signal
from the ferrite magnetic sensor into an analog
position feedback signal designed to interface with
elec tronic control systems and indicating instruments.
When used with the ESR-5, the CPS-5 includes
a monitor / isolator board that delivers an isolated
position feedback signal to the ESR-5. The Monitor
function monitors the CPS-5 position signal and
compares it to established limits. If the output
exceeds normal signal conditions, the monitor
relay contact opens. This relay may be used for
either a remote signal indication or activation of
Loss-of-Signal operation of the actuator.
POSITION FEEDBACK:
FILM POTENTIOMETER
The film potentiometer produces a voltage that is
a fraction of the voltage applied across its resistive
element. That voltage fraction is determined by
the position of the wiper on the resistive element.
The potentiometer assembly also includes two
fixed resistors, one on each end of the resistive
element. These resistors permit suppressed ranges
as well as zero-based position feedback voltages. If
position feedback is desired on actuators equipped
with an ESR-5 board, two film potentiometers are
required: One for position feedback and the second
to supply a feedback signal to the ESR-5.
80-1100-00, Rev. 03.2
30
OPERATION
CALIBRATION
LOSS OF SIGNAL (L.O.S.)
Beck actuators equipped with the ESR-5 have
the ability to move to a predetermined position
upon loss of demand signal. When the demand
signal drops to approx. 13% of span below the
zero setting, the ESR-5 provides an annunciating
signal with one of the following options:
1. STALOS = Stay in place, lock in last position.
(Triac output available at terminal E for remote
alarm, 0.12 to 5 A, 120 V, 50 or 60 hz)
2. REVLOS = Move to the minimum limit switch
position. Connect terminal E to F.
3. FWDLOS = Move to the maximum limit switch
position. Connect terminal E to D.
4. INTLOS = Move to predetermined intermediate
auxiliary switch position. Consult factory.
When the demand signal is lost but the power
remains on, the L.O.S. switch on the ESR-5 board
is energized, a red LED on the board lights and the
directional switches are turned off. The output of
the L.O.S. switch is connected to terminal E which is
wired for one of the predetermined operating modes
listed above.
When REVLOS, FWDLOS, or INTLOS is
selected, an additional relay is required in order to
provide the annunciating signal. This should be
specified on ordering.
STALL PROTECTION AND
ANNUNCIATION
The Beck Stall Protection Module (SPM) is an
optional feature for Group 11 actuators. The SPM
monitors the motor current at terminals N and M.
The SPM will be activated when the actuator cannot
reach a desired position within approximately 300
seconds.
When a stall is sensed, the SPM shuts off
power to the motor and a solid state relay in the
SPM changes state. The relay is rated for 120 V
ac or dc, 10 VA. Two terminals connected to the
solid state relay are located on the SPM. Use of
the relay for annunciation of a stall is optional and
will not affect the other functions of the SPM. A
sensed stall condition is cleared by either reversing
the motor direction command in the controller or by
turning the actuator power off and on. An LED is
included on the SPM to show the operating status
of the module.
CALIBRATION PRIORITY
Standard Group 11 actuators are equipped with
fixed, non-adjustable, built-in mechanical stops. All
output shaft rotation must occur within these stops,
which are outside the electrical range of travel.
The over-travel or end-of-travel limit switches
are used to limit the electrical control range of the
actuator. These switches are cam operated and
are set slightly wider apart then the actuator’s
intended full range of electronic operation for
options 5 thru 8—typically 101° (11-15_/-20_/-
30_/-40_) or 91° (11-16_/-26_/-36_/-46_). For
options 3 & 4, the end-of-travel limit switches
are set at the actuator's intended full range of
operation—typically 100° (11-15_/-20_/-30_/-40_)
or 90° (11-16_/-26_/-36_/-46_).
If the actuator is short-stroked—i.e., the full
travel rotation from 0–100% is reduced to less
than the standard 100° or 90° rotation—it may
be desirable to reset the limit switches (see page
31). If the limit switches are not reset, Handswitch
operation of the actuator (CW, CCW) will still result
in the original full range of travel. It is best to
calibrate the actuator and then set the limit switches
when short-stroking the actuator. Over-travel
limit switches (options 5 thru 8) should be set just
outside the calibrated range to avoid tripping the
switch at the 0% and 100% positions.
The auxiliary switches are also cam operated,
but have no affect on actuator operation. Therefore,
the auxiliary switches can be adjusted at any time
without affecting performance or calibration.

NOTE: Your Beck actuator was shipped
from the factory ready for installation; no
electrical adjustments are required before
placing it in operation. Each actuator is set
up and calibrated to the specifications that
were written into the equipment order.
Under normal operating conditions there is no
need to recalibrate the actuator. However, if the
application requirements change—or are different
than specified on the equipment order—the
actuator should be recalibrated according to the
following procedures.
SWITCH ADJUSTMENTS
Over-travel limit switches (options 5 thru 8) are
factory set 1/2° outside each end of travel unless
otherwise specified at time of order. End-of-travel
limit switches (options 3 & 4) are factory set at each
end of travel unless otherwise specified at time of
order. Limit switches must be set inside the range
of the built-in mechanical stops to prevent stalling
of the motor. Limit switches can be reset to limit
travel of the output shaft to any angle down to a
minimum of approximately 60°. Auxiliary switches
are set as shown in the illustration on page 32
unless otherwise specified at time of order.
NOTE: The limit switches are the switches
closest to the actuator body. To adjust these
switches, it is necessary to remove the
control end cover.
Switches are operated by cams which are
clamped onto the control shaft. Setting a switch
involves loosening the cam, moving the output
shaft to the desired position, and positioning the
cam so that it just operates the switch at that point.
In the following procedure, the use of a continuity
meter is recommended to determine when the
switch opens or closes. If such a meter is not
available, it is possible to hear the switch click as
the contacts open and close.
CAUTION
Do not attach the meter or attempt
to move the switch cams until the
actuator is disconnected from the
line voltage and auxiliary switches
are disconnected from external
power sources.
SETTING LIMIT SWITCHES
CW AND CCW
This procedure should be used if the factory
limit switch settings must be changed in the field.
It is advisable to operate the actuator fully in each
direction, using the electric Handswitch to check
switch settings before attempting to change them.
Follow these instructions if they require adjustment:
NOTE: The rotation direction of the output
shaft is the same as the control shaft except
for models 11-1__, in which the shafts rotate
in opposite directions.
1. Remove the control end cover (and extensions,
if applicable) and terminal block cover (1/2”
wrench).
2. Use the electric Handswitch to drive the control
shaft so that the CW switch cam screw is
accessible. Using a 7/64” hex wrench, loosen
the screw so that the cam is just snug on the
shaft (see photo, page 32).
3. Move the output shaft to the desired CW limit
(for options 5 thru 8, this should be just outside
the desired fully CW position).
4. Turn the Handswitch to the “STOP” position.
5. Disconnect power from the actuator.
6. Connect a continuity meter across terminals B
and U. Rotate the cam until the meter shows no
continuity (switch contacts open, switch clicks).
7. Tighten the cam locking screw to 5 Ib-in
(0.56 N•m) torque.
8. Disconnect meter and ensure the Handswitch
is in the “STOP” position.
9. Reconnect actuator power.
10. Rotate the actuator’s output shaft in the CCW
direction away from the CW travel limit. Note
the direction of rotation on the lobe of the cam.
The correct cam lobe motion is away from the
switch lever with the switch lever on the lower
part of the cam. If not correct, return to step 2
and reset the cam to the proper orientation.
11. Rotate the output shaft again to the desired
CW travel limit. If the stopping point is reached,
the switch is properly set.
12. Repeat instructions 2–11 for setting the CCW
limit switch (CCW rather than CW). Connect
continuity meter across terminals B and V.
13. Replace covers and tighten cover bolts to
10 Ib-ft (14 N•m) torque.
14. Rotate index (or index pointer on models
11-1__) to correspond with output shaft
rotation.

SETTING AUXILIARY
SWITCHES
Standard switch settings for actuators with 2
or 4 auxiliary switches are shown on the following
diagram “Standard Limit and Auxiliary Switch
Settings”. The heavy line indicates a closed circuit.
Follow these instructions to change the operating
point of auxiliary switches:
NOTE: In the following procedure, it is
assumed that switch settings are to be
adjusted so that contacts are open when the
desired position is achieved. If they are to
be adjusted to close, it may be necessary to
reverse the operating mode of the switch by
reversing the leads on the switch itself. Be
sure to disconnect power from the switch
terminals first.
1. Remove the control end cover (and extensions,
if applicable) and the terminal block cover (1/2”
wrench).
2. Use the electric Handswitch to drive the shaft
so that the switch cam is accessible. Using a
7/64” hex wrench, loosen the screw so that the
cam is just snug on the shaft.
3. Move the output shaft to the desired switch trip
position.
4. Turn the Handswitch to the “STOP” position.
5. Disconnect power from the actuator and
switch terminals.
6. Connect the continuity meter across the
appropriate terminals. See the specific
actuator wiring diagram under the terminal
block cover (or the generic diagram at right).
Rotate the cam to operate the switch.
7. Tighten the cam locking screw to 5 Ib-in
(1 N•m) torque.
8. Disconnect the meter and reconnect power.
9. Move the actuator’s output shaft in the desired
direction to verify that the cam lobe moves
away from the switch lever. If not correct,
return to step 2 and reset the cam to the proper
orientation.
10. Replace covers and tighten cover bolts to
10 Ib-ft (14 N•m) torque.

CALIBRATION Direction Change
DIRECTION OF OUTPUT SHAFT
ROTATION
The direction of output shaft rotation is
determined by observing the end of the actuator
output shaft. The rotation direction desired from an
increasing signal—clockwise or counterclockwise—
should be specified at the time of order. If not
specified, the output shaft is factory-set to rotate
clockwise in response to an increasing signal.
NOTE: Changing direction of rotation does not
change the setting of the auxiliary switches.
CHANGING DIRECTION OF
OUTPUT SHAFT ROTATION
Procedures vary depending upon the actuator
model number. The number is listed on the
actuator nameplate. Determine the model number
and refer to one of the following procedures.
CAUTION
Be sure the actuator is disconnected
from the line voltage and that all
auxiliary switches are disconnected
from the external power sources
before beginning the direction
change procedure.
Models 11- __3 and 11- __4
No changes are necessary for these models
other than resetting the travel index.
Model 11- __5
1. Remove the control end cover and extensions,
if applicable (5/16” bolt heads).
2. Interchange the wires connected to terminals
1 and 5 of the potentiometer (i.e., the wire to
terminal 1 should be moved to terminal 5 and
vice versa). The wire to terminal 3 should not
be moved (wiper connection). See table on
page 34.
3. Reset the travel index.
4. Reset the potentiometer wiper according to
the film potentiometer calibration instructions
on page 35.
Model 11-__7
NOTE: On Model 11-__7 units equipped with
an auxiliary film potentiometer, the auxiliary
potentiometer is the one mounted closest to
the actuator body.
1. Remove the terminal cover, control end
cover and extensions, if applicable (5/16” bolt
heads).
2. Interchange the wire jumpers connected to
terminals M and N.
3. Change the wires connected to the ends of
the potentiometer for the ESR—this is the
potentiometer farthest from the actuator
body—using the table on page 34 as a guide
(i.e., the wire to terminal 1 should be moved
to 5 (or vice versa) and the wire to terminal 2
should be moved to 4 (or vice versa)). The
wire to terminal 3 should not be moved (wiper
connection).
4. If your actuator is not equipped with an
auxiliary potentiometer, skip to step 6.
5. Interchange the wires connected to terminals
1 and 5 of the auxiliary potentiometer—this is
the potentiometer closest to the actuator body
(i.e., the wire to terminal 1 should be moved
to terminal 5 and vice versa). The wire to
terminal 3 should not be moved.
6. Replace the terminal cover. Torque the cover
bolts to 10 Ib-ft (14 N•m). Reset travel index.
7. Reset the potentiometer wiper according to
the film potentiometer calibration instructions
on page 35.
Models 11-__6 and 11- __8
1. Remove the terminal compartment cover,
control end cover and extensions, if applicable
(5/16” bolt heads).
2. For model 11-__8, interchange the wire
jumpers connected to terminals M and N.
3. For both models, determine the correct
feedback signals from the wiring diagram
supplied with your actuator (CC, DD, EE).
4. FOR CURRENT FEEDBACK APPLICATIONS:
Record the color and location of the feedback
signal wires (for reconnection later). Remove
the two feedback wires. Connect a mA meter
in series with a 200 ohm load resistor.
FOR VOLTAGE FEEDBACK APPLICATIONS:
Connect a voltmeter across the feedback
terminals, DO NOT remove the feedback
signal wires. See the table on page 61 for
feedback terminals.
5. Reconnect actuator power.
6. Drive the output shaft until the CPS-5 output
is 50% of the range (e.g., for 4–20 mA signal
range, set output to 12 mA).
7. Ensure Handswitch is in “STOP” position.
8. Using a 7/64" hex wrench, loosen the CPS-5
rotor clamp.

(Continued)
9. Rotate the CPS-5 rotor 180° and set the
output back to the mid-range (e.g., 12 mA).
10. Tighten the rotor clamp.
11. Run the actuator to the 0% and 100%
positions. Record the CPS-5 output at these
positions.
12. Subtract the outputs recorded at the two
positions and compare with the desired
output signal span (e.g., 16 mA for a 4–20 mA
signal range). The difference between the
measured span and the desired span is the
span error.
13. With the actuator at the 100% position,
turn the span potentiometer to adjust the
CPS-5 output signal by 1/2 of the span error
calculated in step 12. Turning the span
potentiometer CW increases the span equally
at both ends. Turning the span potentiometer
CCW decreases the span equally at both
ends. See the figure on page 37 for the
location of the span potentiometer.
14. Loosen the CPS-5 rotor clamp and rotate to
achieve the desired value of maximum output
signal (e.g., 20 mA for a 4–20 mA signal
range). Rotation of the CPS-5 rotor moves
the entire signal range up or down.
15. Tighten the CPS-5 rotor clamp to 5 Ib-in
(.56 N•m) torque. Maintain a 0.031" (.8 mm)
clearance between the rotor clamp and stator.
16. Run the actuator to the 0% and 100% positions
and check the output signal for desired span.
If incorrect, repeat the procedure from step 2.
17. Remove the meter and resistor and reconnect
the feedback wiring.
18. Replace covers and tighten cover bolts to 10
Ib-ft torque. Reset travel index.

CALIBRATION Feedback Signal
Feedback signal calibration is necessary to
ensure that the signal correctly corresponds to
the actuator’s output shaft position. All actuators
are shipped with the feedback calibrated for full
100° travel (90° for 11-16_/-26_/-36_/-46_) of
the output shaft unless otherwise specified at the
time of order. Minimum shaft travel available on
Group 11 actuators is 60°.
The procedure to check and set feedback
calibration varies by model number. The model
number is listed on the actuator nameplate.
Determine the model number and refer to the
proper procedure below.
NOTE: The travel limit switches must be
properly adjusted before the feedback signal
is calibrated. The feedback signal must be
calibrated before the demand Demand signal
can be calibrated.
Film Potentiometer Calibration
Models 11-__5 and 11-__7
NOTE: The auxiliary film potentiometer is
mounted closest to the actuator body on such
optionally equipped model 11-__7 units.
When properly adjusted, the auxiliary
potentiometer feedback signal should be
maximum with the actuator output shaft at the
100% (maximum Demand signal) position. At
50% of travel the signal should be mid-span. At
the 0% position, the signal should be minimum.
If either the auxiliary or main potentiometer
on option 7 units is out of calibration, or if the
feedback potentiometer on option 5 units is out of
calibration:
1. Remove the ESR cover and the control end
cover (5/16” bolt heads).
2. Loosen the clamping screw (use 9/64" hex
wrench) on the potentiometer wiper so that it
is just snug on the shaft.
3. Move the actuator to the 0% position.
4. On Model 11-__7, connect a voltmeter
between the terminal with the green lead
(either terminal 2 or 4) and the adjacent
terminal (either terminal 1 or 5). Measure
and record the voltage. Now connect the
voltmeter between the terminal with the yellow
lead (+) and the terminal with the green lead
(–) and set the wiper on the potentiometer
until the meter reads 30 mV greater than the
voltage recorded in the first part of this step.
On models 11-__5, set the wiper about
5 degrees above the position where the
minimum output is reached, or as required by
the control system.
NOTE: Be sure that the wiper spans the
resistive and collector elements equally, and
does not touch the areas of low resistance at
either end of the film element.
5. Tighten the clamping screw to 5 Ib-in
(.56 N•m) torque.
6. Operate the actuator between the 0% and
100% positions. Verify that the feedback
signal is properly adjusted.
7. Use the manual Handwheel to move the
actuator to the mechanical limit; do not
over-torque, as damage may result.
8. Check that the wiper does not come off the
resistive element. This may be verified by
monitoring the output voltage and ensuring
it does not fall from maximum value. If not
correct, return to step 2.
9. Replace the control end cover and the ESR
cover. Torque the cover bolts to 10 Ib-ft (14 N•m).
CPS-5 Calibration
Model 11-__6 and 11-__8
These models are equipped with a
Contactless Position Sensor (CPS-5) for position
sensing and feedback. On model 11-__8, the
CPS-5 also delivers a position signal to the
Electronic Signal Receiver (ESR-5). Adjusting
the remote feedback signal will automatically
adjust the position signal to the ESR-5 on these
models.
CPS-5 units are designed to provide position
feedback without contacting or wiping surfaces.
On option 8 units, the CPS-5 includes a Monitor/
Isolator board which detects high and low out-of-
limit conditions. This board monitors the CPS-5
position signal and compares it to established limits.
If the output exceeds normal signal conditions, the
board relay contact opens. This relay may be
used for remote signal indication or activation of
Loss-of-Signal operation of the actuator.
The CPS-5 provides infinite resolution by
incorporating a ferrite rotor on the control shaft and
a ferrite stator mounted on the position sensing
circuit board. To adjust the feedback signal, first
adjust the span, then change the position of the
rotor on the control shaft to adjust the zero.
80-1100-00, Rev. 03.2
36
Checking Feedback Signal
Calibration
The following procedure should be followed
to check CPS-5 calibration:
Tools required:
mA / V dc Multimeter
1/2" Combination Wrench
200 ohm Resistor
1. Put electric Handswitch in “STOP” position.
2. Remove the terminal cover and the control
end cover (5/16” bolt heads).
3. Determine the correct feedback terminals
from the wiring diagram supplied with your
actuator (CC, DD, EE).
4. FOR CURRENT FEEDBACK APPLICATIONS:
Record the color and location of the feedback
signal wires (for reconnection later). Remove
the two feedback wires. Connect a mA meter
in series with a 200 ohm load resistor.
FOR VOLTAGE FEEDBACK APPLICATIONS:
Connect a voltmeter across the feedback
terminals. DO NOT remove the feedback
signal wires. See table on page 61 for
feedback terminals.
5. Drive the output shaft through its full range
and check the feedback signal. When
properly adjusted, the feedback signal should
be maximum with the actuator’s output shaft
at the 100% (maximum Demand signal)
position. At 50% travel the signal should
be mid-span. At 0%, the signal should be
minimum. If not correct, proceed with the
calibration procedure.
NOTE: Tolerance on factory calibration is
±0.5% of span.
Calibration Procedure
Adjustment of the CPS-5 is necessary
if the signal range requires an increase or
decrease in value relative to the actuator’s
output shaft rotation. Calibrate by turning the
span potentiometer CW to increase the gain of
the CPS-5. This has the effect of increasing the
output at the high end and lowering the output at
the low end equally.
Signal span is determined by the CPS-5
model and ranging resistor selected.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the zero potentiometer
to shift the span.
To adjust the span, turn the span potentiometer
on the CPS-5 position sensor board (see figure
on page 37). The span potentiometer adjusts the
CPS-5 so that an actuator output shaft rotation
from 80° to 100° produces the specified output
signal range.
For output shaft rotation of between 60° and
79°, it may be necessary to remove resistor
R8 (100 K ohm) to change the range of the
span adjustment. An R8 value of 100 K ohms
produces shaft output range of 80° to 100°; R8 =
249 K ohms produces shaft output range of 70°
to 79°; and removing R8 produces shaft output
range of 60° to 69°. See the figure on page 37
for location of R8 (positioned on raised turrets).
Tools required for calibration:
mA / V dc Multimeter
3/32" Screwdriver
7/64" Hex Wrench
1/4" Screwdriver
1/2" Combination Wrench
1/32" (.8 mm) Thickness Feeler Gauge
200 ohm Resistor
1. Put electric Handswitch in “STOP” position.
2. Remove the terminal cover and the control
end cover (5/16” bolt heads).
3. Determine the correct feedback terminals
from the wiring diagram supplied with your
actuator (CC, DD, EE). This wiring diagram is
located under the terminal cover.
4. FOR CURRENT FEEDBACK APPLICATIONS:
Record the color and location of the feedback
signal wires (for reconnection later). Remove
the two feedback wires. Connect a mA meter
in series with a 200 ohm load resistor.
FOR VOLTAGE FEEDBACK APPLICATIONS:
Connect a voltmeter across the feedback
terminals. DO NOT remove the feedback
signal wires. See the table on page 61 for
feedback terminals.
5. Move the actuator to the 0% and 100%
positions and record the CPS-5 output at
these positions.
6. Subtract the outputs recorded at the two
positions and compare with the desired
output signal span (e.g., 16 mA for a 4–20
mA signal range). The difference between the
measured span and the desired span is the
span error.

potentiometer CW increases the span equally
at both ends. Turning the span potentiometer
CCW decreases the span equally at both
ends. See figure below for the location of the
span potentiometer.
8. Loosen the CPS-5 rotor clamp (see figure
below) and rotate to achieve the desired
value of maximum output signal (e.g., 20 mA
for a 4–20 mA signal range). Rotation of the
CPS-5 rotor moves the entire signal range up
or down.
9. Tighten the CPS-5 rotor clamp to 5 Ib-in

CALIBRATION Feedback Signal / Demand Signal
Adjusting the Zero
Potentiometer
The zero potentiometer is provided on CPS-5
models 20-4400-03 and -13 to change from a
suppressed zero to a zero-based range (e.g.,
from 1–5 V dc to 0–16 V dc). The zero is
adjustable from -5% to +30% of span.
CAUTION
The zero is factory sealed on all
CPS-5 units except 20-4400-03 and
-13. Do not attempt to adjust the zero
on other mod els as misadjustment
of feedback signal and monitor/
isolator functions will result.
NOTE: Do not adjust the zero potentiometer
to shift calibration. Adjust the rotor position
only to shift calibration.
The following example is given to illustrate
how the zero is adjusted to effect a range change
from 1–5 V dc to 0–16 V dc.
1. Install the 1–5 V dc unit as a 1–5 V dc range.
Do not make any adjustments other than
setting the rotor position.
2. Remove the jumper from terminals CC to DD
and replace with a 3.01 K ohm resistor (see
table on page 61). This shifts the range to
4–20 V dc.
3. Using a voltmeter at the appropriate output
terminals, adjust the zero potentiometer
with the actuator at minimum demand signal
position so that output reads 0 V dc. This
changes the range to 0–16 V dc.
FEEDBACK SIGNAL
MONITOR / ISOLATOR
CPS-5 models 20-4400-12, -13, -14, and
-15 are provided with a Monitor / lsolator board
that delivers an isolated position signal to
the Electronic Signal Receiver (ESR-5). The
board monitors the CPS-5 position signal and
compares it to established limits. If the output
exceeds normal signal conditions, the monitor
relay contact opens. This relay may be used for
either a remote signal indication or activation of
Loss-of-Signal (L.O.S.) operation of the actuator.
No adjustments should be made on the
Monitor / Isolator board.
Signal Monitor Sensing
Operation
A red LED indicator and an SPST relay
are mounted on the Monitor / lsolator board to
indicate that power is on and that the CPS-5
position signal is within normal range. The
contacts open at -4% and +104%, and close at
-1% and +101%.
The SPST relay is rated for 0.1 A resistive at
100 V dc.
Loss of Signal Operation (L.O.S.)
Actuators equipped with Electronic Signal
Receivers (ESR-5) are configured so that the
demand signal is connected through the position
signal monitoring relay on the Monitor / Isolator
board of the CPS-5. The Loss-of-Signal (L.O.S.)
function of the ESR-5 may therefore be activated
when the CPS-5 signals are outside the normal
range —contact the factory for details and
instructions. For more information on the L.O.S.
function, review the following section on Demand
Signal Calibration.
DEMAND SIGNAL CALIBRATION
All actuators equipped for milliamp or DC
analog modulating applications include an
Electronic Signal Receiver (ESR-5). The ESR-5
board consists of a voltage regulator, a signal
amplifier, an error amplifier, and three solid-state
output switches.
The ESR-5 board controls the position of the
Beck actuator according to the demand signal it
receives. A position signal is delivered to the board
from either a potentiometer or the CPS-5, which
is compared with the demand signal. The error
signal is then amplified and used to actuate either
of two switches to drive the output shaft clockwise
or counterclockwise until the signals are balanced.
The third output switch is energized when
the demand signal falls below a given setting
(Loss Of Signal). The L.O.S. feature can be
used to drive the output shaft to a predetermined
position. Also, the L.O.S. LED will light on the
ESR-5 board. See section on L.O.S., page 30,
for further details.
NOTE: The Demand signal is calibrated
relative to the Feedback signal. Therefore, the
over-travel limit switches must be properly
adjusted and the Feed back signal calibrated
before the Demand signal can be calibrated.

CALIBRATION Demand Signal
Checking Calibration
Using the demand signal, drive the output
shaft through its complete range. Check the
position feedback signal to confirm that a 10%
Demand signal delivers a 10% position, a 50%
signal delivers a 50% position, and a 90% signal
delivers a 90% position. If the feedback signals
do not correspond to the appropriate demand
signals, then the ESR-5 must be calibrated. The
tolerance on factory calibration is ±0.5% of span.
CAUTION
The signal circuit on ESR-5 units is not
grounded. If grounding is required,
connect terminal BB in the terminal
compartment to ground, either on the
actuator body or externally.
Calibration Tips
The demand signal can be varied by the
automatic controller, but if that is impractical, a
test box may be used. Connect the test box to
positive terminal AA and negative terminal BB of
the terminal block in place of the controller input.
Span and zero adjustments are located near
the edge of the ESR-5 board (see figure, page
41). Monitor the “FWD” and “REV” LEDs to make
adjustments. When the actuator is balanced (with
Handswitch in “AUTO” and not at an over-travel
limit) both direction LEDs are off; when in L.O.S.
mode, direction LEDs are off, but the L.O.S.
LED is lit. When the output shaft is moving, the
LED designating its direction of travel is lit and
the other LED is off. When the actuator reaches
its end of travel before balance is achieved, the
LED will stay lit. Trim the adjustment so that the
actuator just reaches the limit and the motor does
not run. Clockwise rotation of either span or zero
adjustment causes the output shaft to drive toward
the zero (minimum demand signal) position.
Calibration Procedures
NOTE: Two calibration procedures are
described below. The first procedure is to be
followed if the span is in error by less than
15%. If the span is in error by more than 15%
follow the second procedure.
CAUTION
Actuator will run during the following
procedures.
Tools required:
3/32" Screwdriver
1/2" Combination Wrench
1/4" Screwdriver
mA / V dc Multimeter
200 Ohm Resistor
If the span is in error by less than 15%:
1. Turn the Handswitch to the "STOP" position.
2. Remove the ESR cover and the terminal block
cover (5/16” bolt heads).
3. Determine the correct external feedback signal
terminals from the wiring diagram supplied
with the actuator (located on the inside of the
terminal block cover). Connect a meter (if
applicable) to monitor the feedback signal.
Refer to the "Feedback Signal Calibration"
section beginning on page 35 for instructions
on how to connect the meter. Note: For
actuators equipped with control option 7 without
an auxiliary potentiometer, it is not possible
to use terminals CC, DD and EE for signal
measurements during calibration; instead, an
external reference must be used to determine
the actuator output shaft position.
4. Connect a signal source to the demand signal
terminals, AA (+) and BB (–).
5. Turn the Handswitch to the "AUTO" position.
6. Apply the desired 0% demand signal to the
actuator (e.g., 4 mA for a 4–20 mA input).
7. Using a 3/32" screwdriver, adjust the zero
potentiometer CCW until the motor runs and
the output shaft position is at least 2° from
the desired 0% position. Both the “REV” &
“FWD” LED will be off.
8. Adjust the zero potentiometer CW in small
increments until the output shaft is at the
0% position. For actuators equipped with
external feedback, the feedback signal reads
0% (e.g., 4 mA for a 4–20 mA signal). Once
at the 0% position, both LEDs should be off.
9. Apply the desired 100% demand signal to the
actuator (e.g., 20 mA for a 4–20 mA signal).
10. Using a 3/32" screwdriver, adjust the span
potentiometer CW until the actuator motor
runs and the output shaft position is at least
2° from the desired 100% position. The
“FWD” LED will light and remain lit.
11. Adjust the span potentiometer CCW in small
increments until the output shaft is at the
100% position. For actuators equipped with
external feedback, the feedback signal reads
100% (e.g., 20 mA for a 4–20 mA signal).
The “REV“ LED will light and the “FWD” LED
deactivate. Once at the 100% position, both
LEDs should be off.

12. Apply the desired 0% demand signal and
confirm that the output shaft is at the 0%
position (the feedback signal reads 0%). If
not, adjust the zero potentiometer.
13. Apply the desired 100% demand signal and
confirm that the output shaft is at the 100%
position (the feedback signal reads 100%). If
not, adjust the span potentiometer.
14. Repeat steps 12 and 13 until the meter
readings stay within an acceptable range.
15. Remove the meter and any local signal
sources and reinstall the demand signal
and feedback signal wiring. Replace the
compartment covers and tighten the bolts to
10 lb-ft (14 N•m).
For a span error greater than 15%:
1. Turn the Handswitch to the "STOP" position.
2. Remove the ESR cover and the terminal
block cover (5/16” bolt heads).
3. Determine the correct external feedback
signal terminals from the wiring diagram
supplied with the actuator (located on the
inside of the terminal block cover). Note:
For actuators equipped with control option
7 without an auxiliary potentiometer, it is not
possible to use terminals CC, DD and EE
for signal measurements during calibration.
Instead, an external reference must be
used to determine the actuator output shaft
position.
4. Connect a meter (if applicable) to monitor the
feedback signal.
5. Turn the Handswitch to the "AUTO" position.
6. Short the demand signal terminals AA and
BB.
7. Short resistor R35 temporarily with a clip lead.
Note: The board has conformal coating; take
extra care to ensure proper connection.
8. Using a 3/32" screwdriver, adjust the zero
potentiometer CW in small increments until
the output shaft is at the 0% position. For
actuators equipped with external feedback,
the feedback signal reads 0% (e.g., 4 mA for
a 4–20 mA signal).
9. Remove the short on the demand signal
terminals and apply a demand signal equal
to the span (e.g., 16 mA for a 4–20 mA
signal). If the actuator has not been wired,
the demand signal is connected at terminals
AA (+) and BB (–).
10. Using a 3/32" screwdriver, adjust the span
potentiometer CCW in small increments until
the output shaft is at the 100% position. For
actuators equipped with external feedback,
the feedback signal reads 100% (e.g., 20 mA
for a 4–20 mA signal).
11. Remove the clip lead from R35. Apply the
desired 100% demand signal (e.g., 20 mA for
a 4–20 mA signal).
12. Adjust the zero potentiometer CCW (may
require 10–15 turns) until the output shaft is at
the 100% position (the feedback signal reads
100%).
13. Apply the desired 0% demand signal and
confirm that the output shaft is at the 0%
position (the feedback signal reads 0%). If
not, adjust the zero potentiometer.
14. Apply the desired 100% demand signal and
confirm that the output shaft is at the 100%
position (the feedback signal reads 100%). If
not, adjust the span potentiometer.
15. Repeat steps 13 and 14 until satisfied with the
adjustment.
16. Remove the meter and any local signal
sources and reinstall the demand signal
and feedback signal wiring. Replace the
compartment covers and tighten the bolts to
10 lb-ft (14 N•m).
Span
The basic span adjustment of the ESR-5
is 2–6 volts dc. This is adjustable with the
20-turn span potentiometer. To make the span
adjustable from 2–9 volts dc, remove jumper J2.
To make the span adjustable from 9–12 volts
dc, remove jumper wire J1. To make the span
adjustable from 12–16 V dc, remove J1 and J2.
See figure on page 41 for location of jumpers on
the ESR-5 board.
Zero
The basic zero adjustment is -20% to 100% of
span. This is adjustable with the zero potentiometer.
For split range applications, see page 26.
Filter Adjustment
The input filter is adjusted at the factory for
maximum attenuation of disturbances on the
demand signal (fully CW). This introduces a
1% drift (with 60 second timing) in response to
a loss of Demand signal when “stay-in-place”
is selected. If this is objectionable or if livelier
response is desired, the filter action can
be reduced by turning the filter adjustment
potentiometer CCW a sufficient amount. Fully
CCW takes the filtering out completely but in
some cases may lead to undesirable cycling. If
this happens, turn the adjustment CW until the
cycling is damped out. See figure on page 41 for
location.

Deadband Adjustment
The deadband values of 0.6% for CPS-5 or
film potentiometer operation are chosen to satisfy
the requirements of most control systems. If
excessive process and / or signal noise is present,
the actuator may be subject to unnecessary
cycling. It is recommended that excessive noise
be reduced at the source in order to prevent
unnecessary cycling. This will improve process
control and prolong component life.
If it is not possible to eliminate the excessive
noise, the actuator’s deadband can be widened;
however, this will reduce the resolution of the
actuator. Widening the deadband to 1% can
be accomplished by removing jumper J3 on the
ESR-5 board. Further change of the deadband is
possible by changing the value of R42, but only
after J3 is removed. See table below.

L.O.S. Trip Point
If the Demand signal drops below a
predetermined value, the L.O.S. feature is activated.
For example, if the Demand signal is 4–20 mA,
the L.O.S. trip point would be approx. 1.92 mA,
with normal operation resuming before the signal
reaches 4.0 mA. If the Demand signal is 1–5 V,
the L.O.S. trip point would be 0.48 V, with normal
operation resuming before the signal reaches 1 V.
If it is necessary to change the L.O.S. trip point,
resistors R20 and R21 must be replaced. See the
applicable table below.
The L.O.S. function may be disabled by
removing R19.

MAINTENANCE Routine
LUBRICATION / GEARING
Periodic lubrication is not required on Beck
actuators. However, if your actuator has a linkage
with rod ends supplied by Beck, the rod ends
should be included in your scheduled lubrication
program.
During major maintenance outages, it is
recommended that older actuators should be
inspected to ensure that the gearing is not worn or
damaged.
CAUTION
Before removing the gear module
assembly from the actuator body,
secure the output shaft to prevent
movement.
To inspect the gears, remove the gear module
assembly on the 11-2__, -3__ and -4__. On Model
11-1__, the motor must be removed to access the
gears. Clean the gears, removing as much old
lubrication as possible.
Examine the gear teeth, shaft bore, and gear
shafts for signs of excessive wear, scoring, or
other damage. If there is no evidence of damage
to the gearing, recoat the teeth and shaft bores
of all gears with a heavy layer of Fiske Lubriplate
GR-132 or equivalent (GR-132 is an extreme
pressure grease with polymer additives). The
ball bearing on the output shaft and crown gear
shaft have double grease seals and require no
maintenance for the life of the bearings. Inspect
all other grease seals and replace any that show
wear. Reassemble the actuator, referencing the
outline dimension drawings beginning on page 6
for appropriate bolt torques.
If it should ever be necessary to replace the
output shaft assembly, 3rd combination gear, or
output shaft bearings, a major overhaul is required
and the actuator must be returned to the factory
for a repair evaluation.
11-4__ Gear Module
80-1100-00, Rev. 03.2
44
MAINTENANCE Component Replacement
This section covers replacement of many
components of the actuator. Note that some
components are not field-repairable. Refer to the
outline dimension drawings on pages 6–12 and to
the cutaway drawings in the components appendix
for location of components on the actuator.
If it should ever be necessary to replace
the output gear, shaft, or output shaft bearings,
a major overhaul is required and the actuator
should be returned to the factory. During a
major overhaul, the factory repair department
will update the actuator to include all possible
engineering improvements. See "HOW TO
OBTAIN SERVICE" at the end of this manual.
Gaskets
During routine service, inspect removed
cover gaskets for wear or damage. In order to
protect internal components, worn or damaged
gaskets and O-rings should be replaced.
To remove, scrape all of the old adhesive
and gasket material from the body housing and
cover, if necessary. Replacement gaskets are
self-adhering, silicone rubber. Peel the backing
off the replacement gasket and carefully apply to
the actuator body.
Seals
Worn or damaged output shaft, control end
shaft, and motor shaft seals should be replaced
to prevent damage to internal bearings and drive
train parts.
To remove the shaft seal, push the blade of a
small screwdriver along the shaft and under the
seal lip. CAUTION: The seal is approximately
1/4" (6.35 mm) wide. Do not force the screwdriver
blade beyond the width of the seal; damage to
the shaft bearing could result. Pry up on the seal
and force it out of the housing. Clean the shaft
and housing then press in the replacement seal
with the closed side facing outward.
Bearings
The Beck electric actuator contains ball
bearings on the output shaft, control end shaft,
and motor shaft. Bushings and thrust washers are
used on combination gears. Field replacement of
these components is not recommended.
Motor shaft bushings in the body of the
11 -1__ and 11-4__ can be replaced. TIP: To
remove, fill the bushing with a heavy grease.
Select a drive pin that slip fits into the bushing.
Insert the pin into the bushing and tap with a
mallet. This will force the bushing out of the body
casting.
Motor
The control motor is not field-repairable.
Disassembly of the motor will result in a loss of
torque that can only be restored by returning the
motor to the factory for re-magnetizing.
CAUTION
Before removing the control motor,
block the actuator crank arm to
prevent the crank arm and the gear
train from moving when the motor
is removed.
To remove the motor, first disconnect the
motor wires in the terminal compartment of
the actuator. In the 11-2__, -3__, and -4__
actuators, remove the terminal block and plate
as an assembly. Remove the black wire from
the terminal post, cut the red motor wire near
the red-yellow-red butt joint and disconnect the
green wire from the motor capacitor. Remove
the mounting bolts and motor. Carefully slide the
motor out of the actuator body.
To install the motor, insert the three-wire
sleeve through the wire hole in the motor mount
and into the terminal compartment. Carefully
slide the motor into the actuator body. Rotate the
motor shaft, if necessary, to engage the pinion
with the first combination gear. Install motor
mounting bolts and torque to recommended
values. Reconnect the motor wires. See the
following section for reinstalling the terminal
plate.
Motor Resistor and Capacitor
The motor resistor and capacitor are located
under the terminals in the terminal compartment.
To replace a resistor or capacitor, remove the
terminal cover. In the 11-2__, -3__, and -4__,
remove the terminal plate. Remove the existing
part and transfer the wires one at a time to the
replacement part. Inspect the terminal plate
gasket and replace if necessary. To ensure a
watertight seal between the plate and gasket,
coat the gasket with a thin film of grease before
replacing the terminal plate. Torque the screws
to 3 Ib-ft (4 N•m).
80-1100-00, Rev. 03.2
45
SELF LOCKING MECHANISM
(SLM)
The Self Locking Mechanism (SLM) is
assembled to the front of the motor and couples
the motor to the gear train. The primary function
of the SLM is to lock the gear train in place when
the motor is de-energized. When the motor is
energized, the SLM releases and allows the motor
to drive the gearing.
There is no recommended maintenance
interval for the SLM. The SLM can last for many
years in normal service. SLM wear is a function of
loading and the number of starts/stops the motor
experiences over time. Overloading or stalling the
actuator will accelerate SLM wear.
Signs of wear include the inability of the
actuator to hold position when the motor is de-
energized. This could result in persistent on-off
oscillation. Severe SLM wear or damage may
result in a loss of torque at the output shaft.
It is often possible to confirm SLM wear or
damage by checking motor operation with the
Handwheel. Place the Handswitch in the STOP
position, and rotate the motor Handwheel back
and forth. There should be free play before the
motor pinion/gearing turns (up to one tenth of a full
Handwheel rotation). Lack of free play or rough
motor movement may indicate the need for SLM
reconditioning.
Disassembly and close inspection of the
SLM components is required to fully evaluate its
condition.
WARNING
Electrical shock hazard. Disconnect
power before proceeding.
Support the load before removing
the motor/SLM from the actuator.
DISASSEMBLY AND CLEANING
When
wear
or
damage
is
suspected,
disassembly and cleaning may be required to
determine the extent of needed repairs. Individual
parts may be replaced, with the exception of the
actuator collar, which is not field replaceable.
Refer to the illustration on page 46.
For SLM disassembly and inspection:
1. Disconnect power from the actuator.
2. Secure the actuator load, and remove the motor
assembly (see page 44). Handle the motor with
care so as not to damage the rotor shaft.
3. Pushing down firmly on the pinion, measure
the gap between the stop collar and the thrust
washer. This distance should measure 0.015
± 0.005” for motors on models 11-1__, 11-2__,
and 11-3__. This distance should measure
0.025 ± .005” for motors on models 11-4__. An
excessive gap indicates worn SLM components.
4. Use a felt tip pen to mark the location of the
stop collar (or shaft clamp collar) on the shaft.
Support the end of the rotor shaft to prevent it
from bending, and drive the 1/8” spring pin out
(or loosen the shaft clamp collar). Carefully
(the spring assembly is spring-loaded), remove

on any model.
CAUTION
Do not disassemble the motor
any further, as it has no other
user serviceable parts. Further
d i s a s s e m b l y w i l l r e s u l t i n
demagnetization of the motor and
loss of the required torque.
5. Clean grease from the pinion and locking disc
for inspection. A small amount of dust residue
from the friction material is normal. Clean
the actuator collar detents with a rag and
inspect for wear. Inspect the friction material
for excessive wear or damage. If the friction
material does not appear to be damaged, clean
with alcohol to remove any contaminants.
6. Identify worn parts and replace as needed.
Note, wear on the pinion teeth may indicate
wear on the meshing gear. Further inspection
of the gear module assembly is recommended.
Drive collar detent wear will require factory
repair of the motor.
REPLACEMENT AND REBUILD INSTRUCTIONS
1. If the friction material requires replacement,
scrape off the old friction material and
thoroughly clean the bonding surface to ensure
flatness for the new friction material. Glue the
new friction material in place with Loctite 454
Instant Adhesive or equivalent, taking care to
keep the material flat and clean.
2. Apply a film of grease (Fiske Lubriplate GR-132
or equivalent) to the surface of the ball detents
(12 or 16 places depending on the model).
Apply a thin film of grease to the inner diameter
of the locking disc bore. Do not let the grease
contact any friction surfaces. Excess grease
can contaminate the friction surface and reduce
SLM effectiveness.
3. With the motor shaft pointed up, place a steel
ball into each of the actuator collar detents.
Install the locking disc and place a steel ball
into each of the detents on the top of the locking
disc. Continue with the appropriate steps

Models 11-1__, 11-2__ & 11-3__
4. Install the pinion, thrust bearing/washer, and
stop collar (or shaft clamp collar). On model
11-1__ actuators, the white side of the thrust
washer should face the pinion. Make sure all
steel balls are properly seated in the detents
of the actuator collar, locking disc, and pinion.
Align the stop collar (or shaft clamp collar)
and shaft marks made during disassembly
and insert a 1/8” pilot punch through the stop
collar hole and into the motor shaft (or tighten
the button head cap screw in the shaft clamp
collar to 15 lb-in. (1.7 N•m)) to hold it in place.
5. Pushing down firmly on the pinion, measure
the gap between the stop collar (or shaft clamp
collar) and the thrust bearing/washer. This
distance should measure 0.015 ± .005”. This
space is necessary to ensure proper operation.
Add shims as necessary. Install the new 1/8”
spring pin while supporting the shaft (if not
equipped with the shaft clamp collar).
6. Install the spring by slipping it over the pinion
flange and twisting it into place.
7. On model 11-1__ actuators, reassemble
combination gears onto the motor end. On all
models, recoat the gear teeth and components
above the pinion liberally with a layer of Fiske
Lubriplate GR-132 or equivalent.
Models 11-4__
4. Install the spring on top of the locking disc.
Compress the spring by pushing down with
the pinion. While holding the pinion in place,
install the spacer, thrust bearing, and castle nut
(stop collar). Note: The grooved washers on
each end of the thrust bearing have differently
sized holes; the end with the washer having
the smallest hole should be installed next to
the castle nut. Thread the castle nut on to the
shaft to hold the spring in compression.
5. Replace the front motor end (See figure below)
O-ring and install the front motor end with
the (4) 1/4-20 screws in a crisscross pattern,
torquing to 6 lb-ft (8 N•m). Place RTV around
the wire entry into the motor.
6. Pushing down firmly on the pinion, measure
the gap between the castle nut and the thrust
bearing. This distance should measure 0.025
± .005”. This space is necessary to ensure
proper operation. Tighten or loosen the castle
nut as necessary to achieve the proper gap
and simultaneously align one of the slots with
the hole in the motor shaft. One complete slot
rotation will change the gap by 0.009”. Install
the new 1/8” spring pin while supporting the
shaft.
7. Recoat the gear teeth and components
above the pinion liberally with a layer of Fiske
Lubriplate GR-132 or equivalent.

around one screw to permit an adjustment of the
cam-to-switch lever spacing and switch operating
point. To set the switch, place a .030" (.75 mm)
shim between the cam and switch lever (see
photo to right). The switch lever should be on the
low or minimum radius portion of the cam when
setting the switches. Position the switch assembly
so that the switch is just actuated. DO NOT
overstress the switch lever. Tighten both screws
to 10 lb-in (1 N•m) torque and remove the shim.
ADDING AUXILIARY SWITCHES
It is sometimes possible to add auxiliary
switches in the field. If the actuator was built
with two or less auxiliary switches, they may be
added in multiples of two, for a total of up to four
auxiliary switches. See the table at right for part
numbers.
Install wiring onto the switch push-on lugs and
route the wires into the actuator terminal area.
Remove the terminal compartment cover and

CPS-5
Field repair of the CPS-5 is not recom mended.
WARNING
Electrical shock hazard. Disconnect
power before replacing the CPS-5.
When replacing the CPS-5, this includes the rotor
and stator/circuit board assembly. When returning
the CPS-5 to the factory for service, do not separate
the rotor and stator/circuit board assemblies from
their mounting plates. The rotor should be held
inside the stator with rubber bands when shipping.
The CPS-5 is configured to produce a position
signal voltage between 1 and 5 volts over 100
degrees of travel; units configured for 90 degrees
of travel will produce a position voltage between
1.2 and 4.8 volts. Configured properly, the CPS-5
raw position signal (measured at TP1 & TP4)
increases as the output shaft rotates clockwise.
REMOVE THE EXISTING CPS-5 ASSEMBLY:
1. Run the actuator to its midpoint of travel with
the local Handswitch.
2. Disconnect 120 V ac power to the actuator.
Remove the terminal and control end
compartment covers (1/2” wrench).
3. Record the wire colors on the terminal block
of the CPS-5 (see illustration at left), then
disconnect the wires. The terminals are
spring-loaded. To remove a wire, press the
tip of a small screwdriver into the slot at the
top of the small lever. Push down to open the
spring-loaded contact and release the wire.
4. Pull the wires from the transformer (see illustration)
back through the wire hole in the CPS-5.
5. Loosen and remove the 3 hex studs that clamp the
CPS-5 in place. Ensure that the inboard hex stud
is not loosened as the outboard stud is loosened.
6. Slide the CPS-5 stator assembly off the three
mounting bolts.
7. Note the position of the rotor clamp, then loosen
the rotor clamp screw and remove the rotor
from the shaft.
INSTALL THE NEW CPS-5 ASSEMBLY:
8. Remove the rotor from the replacement CPS-5
assembly. Slide the rotor, clamp end first, onto
the control shaft as close to the mounting plate
as possible. Leave the clamp loose. Position the
clamp similarly to the one removed previously.
9. Slide the new CPS-5 assembly over the studs
and rotor. Replace the hex nuts but do not
tighten. Carefully slide the rotor back into the
CPS-5 assembly. Twist the rotor while sliding
to prevent damage to the assembly. Tighten
hex nuts to 5 Ib-ft (7 N•m).
10. Thread the wires through the wire holes in the
CPS-5 and reconnect them to the transformer
and terminal block.
11. Restore 120 V ac power to the actuator and
connect a meter to the output.
CURRENT FEEDBACK APPLICA TIONS:
Record the color and location of the feedback
signal wires for re-connection later. Remove
the two feedback wires. Connect a mA meter
in series with a 200 ohm load resistor.
VOLTAGE FEEDBACK APPLICA TIONS:
Connect a voltmeter across the feedback
terminals. DO NOT remove the signal
feedback wires.
12. Insert a 0.031” (.80 mm) feeler gauge between
the rotor clamp and stator. Position the clamp
0.031” (.80 mm) from the stator.
13. Rotate the rotor on the control shaft until the
output on the mA or voltmeter reads 50% of
signal span, then tighten the clamp to 5 Ib-in
(.56 N•m) torque.
14. Check the feedback signal calibration as
described on page 36.

HANDSWITCH
WARNING
Electrical shock hazard. Disconnect
power before proceeding.
REMOVE THE EXISTING HANDSWITCH:
1. Remove power from the actuator.
2. Remove the terminal cover (1/2” wrench).
3. To access the Handswitch, the terminal barrier
plate must be removed on all models except
the 11-1__.
4. Clip the five wires from the old Handswitch
(removing any tie wraps or sleeving that may
interfere).
5. Remove the Handswitch knob by loosening the
two inset screws (5/64" hex wrench).
6. Remove the threaded bushing behind the
Handswitch knob. The remaining Handswitch
assembly components may now be removed
from the terminal compartment.
INSTALL THE NEW HANDSWITCH:
7. Insert the new threaded bushing through
the actuator onto the shaft, then attach the
components leading to the switch as shown in
the illustration below.
8. Place the seal in the bushing, then insert the
knob over the bushing. Tighten the two inset
screws to 3 lb-ft (4 N•m).

to color. Ensure the wiring is not exposed after
splicing.
10. Replace the terminal cover, tightening the
captive screws to 10 Ib-ft (14 N•m).
NOTE: When the Handswitch is turned fully
clockwise, “AUTO” should be indicated. Be
sure to place the tab on the tabbed washer
into the slot in the actuator body to secure
the Handswitch in place.
GASKETS
While performing any maintenance, inspect
exposed cover gaskets for wear or damage. In
order to protect internal components, worn or
damaged gaskets should be replaced.
To remove, scrape all of the old adhesive and
gasket material from the body housing and cover,
if necessary. Replacement gaskets are self-
adhering, silicone rubber. Peel the backing off
the replacement gasket and carefully apply to the
actuator body.
