3. Linkage Set-up (continued)
Variable Torque Linkage
A variable torque linkage is employed when it is desired to provide a non-linear torque profile throughout the full
range of final control element travel. In this general situation, the actuator and driven crank arms will be set up to
provide a higher torque for seating or unseating the final control element.

4. Electrical Connections
The actuator terminal connections for the field wiring are located behind the cover on the actuator case. Power and field
wiring is brought into the actuator through two access holes located on the side of the actuator case.
Use both openings: one for low level wiring (control signal) and the other for high
level wiring (120Vac).
Do not run both the High Level and Low Level wiring through the same
opening.
Recommended Minimum Wire Size
In general, copper wire used unless locally applicable codes dictate otherwise.
Earth ground wire to common power supply -14AWG
Earth ground wire to single actuator. 120/240 Vac line leads. +24 V and common signal leads. Common signal leads,
relays, and aux switches – 18AWG
