2 Installation
2.1 CHECKS UPON ACTUATOR RECEIPT
Check that the model, the serial number of the actuator and the
technical data reported on the identification plate correspond with
those of order confirmation (Sect. 1.2).
Check that the actuator is equipped with the fittings as provided for
by order confirmation.
Check that the actuator was not damaged during transportation: if
necessary renovate the painting according to the specification
reported on the order confirmation.
If the actuator is received already assembled with the valve, its
settings have already been made at the factory.
If the actuator is delivered separately from the valve, it is
necessary to check, and, if required, to adjust, the settings of the
mechanical stops (Sect. 3.4) and of micro-switches (if any) (Sect.
3.5).

2.2.2 Procedure to follow if oil leaks from the tanks into the
pneumatic valves
If the actuator tanks are kept in horizontal axis by mistake,
and the oil inside them enters into the pneumatic
connection pipes and in the control pneumatic valves, it is
necessary to wash with dry air (high flow, low pressure) the
interior of valves and pipes:
connect an air or a dry nitrogen supply to the threaded hole of
actuator supply and disconnect the pipes that connect the support
plate of control valves to the tanks.
Then operate the valves so that the air flow removes oil, air should
go out from the ends of the pipes so to clean properly also their
interior.
This operation should be made as soon as possible after the
inconvenience of oil spill.
Checking of the oil level of the bottles (also see chapter 4.1)
The correct oil level can be verified by means of the oil dipsticks
mounted on the top of each bottle. To do this correctly, we must
equalize the oil level of the two bottles:
-Bring the actuator to the middle of the stroke (45° degrees rotation)
-Rotate the oil distributor to the equalizing position
-Wait some minutes, so as the oil can reach for gravity the same
level in the two bottles
-Rotate again the hydraulic distributor to the position corresponding
to the gas powered operation.
After this operation, bring the actuator to the end of the stroke (fully
closed or fully open position) and check, after the gas has been
exhausted, the level of the oil by unscrewing the dipstick. Check that
the oil level correspond to the minimum level line, for the tank wich
was pressurized and to the max level line, for the tank which was to
exhaust.
I.E. If the actuator is in the closed position, the closing bottle
(normally on the left side) must have the oil at minimum level line; the
opening bottle must have the oil at maximum level line. If the levels
are lower than the dipstick lines, add some oil, after checking type
and grade of the oil to be used.
2.3 STORAGE
If the actuator needs storage, before installation follow these steps:
Place it on a wood surface in order not to deteriorate the area of
valve coupling.
Make sure that plastic plugs are present on the pneumatic and
electrical connections (if present).
Check that the cover of the control group and of the limit switch box
(if any) are properly closed.
If the storage is long-term or outdoor:
Keep the actuator protected from direct weather conditions.
Replace plastic plugs of pneumatic and electrical connections (if
any) with metal plugs that guarantee perfect tightness.
Coat with oil, grease or protection disc, the valve coupling area.
Periodically operate the actuator (Sect. 3.3).
For coupling to the valve, the housing is provided with a flange with
threaded holes according to Biffi standard tables (SCN6200
SCN6201). The number, dimensions and diameter of the holes are
made in accordance with ISO 5211, but for actuator models 0.3 to 6
the holes are drilled on the centreline in order to allow an easier
assembly of an intermediate flange, when required. This intermediate
flange ( or spool-piece ) can be supplied when the valve flange can
not directly match the actuator flange in its “standard” configuration.
For the biggest actuator models, the actuator flange can be
machined in accordance with the valve flange dimensions.
The yoke has bored with keyways for coupling to the valve stem, the
dimensions of which are according to Biffi standard tables SCN6200
and SCN6201.
If required, for the standard models size 0.3 to 6, Biffi can supply an
insert bush with un-machined bore in accordance with Biffi standard
table SCN6202 enclosed ( see following pages ). On request the
insert bush bore can be machined by Biffi to couple the valve stem,
provided its dimensions match the maximum stem acceptance of the
bush according to Biffi table TN1005, enclosed. The particular
execution of the flange and bushing allow the actuator to be rotated
by 90° in 4 different positions according to the following figure:

5 Maintenance
Before executing any maintenance operation, it is
necessary to close the pneumatic supply line and
discharge pressure from the cylinder of the actuator,
from the control unit and from the accumulator tank
( if foreseen ).
If in one tank level is BELOW MINIMUM and at the same time in the
other tank it is ABOVE MAXIMUM or the other way round there is an
unbalance of oil levels in the tanks. In this case follow these steps:
Bring actuator to half angular stroke - 45°.
Position distributor in “by-pass”.
Operate the lever of the hydraulic pump to balance the oil levels
of two tanks.
Check that the level is restored with the special measuring sticks.
Bring distributor back to previous position.
For refill use oil of the same brand as the one in the
tanks.
