Sélection générale & On-site Installation Notes

1. MY5010F0500 only matches VY51 series ACTIVAL rotary ball valves, cannot be directly fitted to ordinary globe valves; applicable diameter DN15~DN80, not available beyond this range
2. 2-10V position feedback load ≥10kΩ, otherwise feedback signal distortion occurs, which is the most common on-site fault
3. Outdoor installation must be upright with sunshade and rain protection; IP54 rating is not for permanent heavy rain exposure
4. Max allowable fluid temperature is 175℃. For higher temperature, select high-temperature valve body and install heat insulation bracket to avoid actuator damage from heat conduction

Common Field Failures in Above Projects

Normal command signal but large deviation of valve position feedback: Zero/span calibration missing, insufficient feedback circuit load

Slow movement: Excessive AC24V supply voltage drop or valve stem mechanical seizure

No feedback: Wrong terminal wiring or insufficient input impedance of upper acquisition module

Working Principle of AZBIL MY5010F0500 Electric Proportional Rotary Actuator

MY5010F0500 is a continuous analog controlled electric rotary proportional actuator, specially designed to drive VY51 series rotary ball valves (90° angle stroke). It receives analog setpoint from DDC/PLC and outputs 0~90° rotation of valve shaft, meanwhile provides 2~10V valve position feedback to realize closed-loop valve position control.

Cœur: Built-in servo control circuit + motor reduction mechanism + angular displacement potentiometer, forming local closed loop inside actuator, not open-loop motor control.

1. Overall Workflow
2. Receive External Control Command

Analog control signals from external BMS/DDC/PLC:

0~10 V / 2~10V voltage signal

4~20mA current signal

Signals go through built-in signal conditioning circuit and converted into target valve position setpoint (corresponding to 0°~90°).

2. Acquire Actual Current Valve Position (Internal Feedback)

The actuator output shaft couples with built-in angular displacement potentiometer, which detects real-time rotation angle of valve shaft and converts it into measured actual valve position.

✅ Distinguish two types of feedback:

Internal potentiometer feedback: Sent to actuator servo board for local closed-loop positioning (ensure positioning accuracy)

2~10V external output feedback: Buffered signal derived from internal valve position, transmitted to upper BMS/PLC for remote monitoring (the 2~10V valve position output of MY5010F0500)

3. Servo Comparison & Conduire (Principe fondamental)

The circuit board compares the target setpoint with measured valve position from potentiometer:

Setpoint actual position → drive motor forward rotation (valve opening)

Setpoint < actual position → drive motor reverse rotation (valve closing)

Setpoint ≈ actual position → motor stops, valve maintains current opening

4. Reduction Gearbox for Torque Amplification

Small-power synchronous motor → multi-stage composite plastic & metal reduction gears, reducing speed and amplifying torque to rotate valve stem at 0~90° angle stroke.

Fixed full stroke time (63s @50Hz, 53s @60Hz). It adopts low-speed proportional regulation to avoid impact on valve trim.

5. Fonctionnement manuel (Emergency)

When power is off, wrench can directly rotate output shaft for manual valve on/off. The internal potentiometer synchronously follows rotation; actuator automatically recognizes current valve position after power restoration.

2. Électrique & Signal Principle

Alimentation: AC24V for motor and control board; weak analog control signal is electrically isolated from main power supply

Signal input selection: Onboard jumper allows field switching of signal type (4-20mA / 0~10V /2~10V)

External valve position feedback output: 2~10V DC

2V = 0% ouverture (valve fully closed)

10V =100% opening (valve fully open)

It is an active voltage output. The input impedance of upper acquisition module must be ≥10kΩ, otherwise feedback voltage will be pulled down and reading distorted (one of the most frequent site problems).

3. Fonctions de protection
4. Protection contre le décrochage: When mechanical seizure occurs (valve stem stuck), overload detection stops motor drive to protect motor and gears from burnout.
5. Stroke Limit: Internal electronic limit automatically cuts off motor drive at 0% et 100% accident vasculaire cérébral, no external mechanical limit switches required.
6. Position Hold on Power Loss: Actuator holds current valve position upon power loss (no spring return!), classified as power-fail hold actuator.

⚠️Important: MY5010F0500 has no spring return. Valve stays at current position when power fails. It cannot be used for applications requiring fail-safe action (fail open / fail close).

4. Brief Summary of Control Logic

Upper system sends opening command → Actuator main board compares target setpoint vs measured valve position from internal potentiometer → Deviation drives motor and reduction gears to rotate valve shaft → Motor stops once measured position matches target setpoint; meanwhile valve position is converted to 2~10V signal and uploaded to BMS.

5. Difference from On/Off Electric Actuators

On/Off actuator: Only fully open / fully closed two positions, no continuous positioning

MY5010F0500: Proportional servo closed-loop, stable holding at any intermediate opening, used for continuous flow and temperature regulation, suitable for AHU, heat exchanger station and process chilled water closed-loop temperature control.
