Danfoss 088H3112 Electrothermal Actuator User Manual

1. Producte acabatview

The Danfoss 088H3112 is an electrothermal actuator designed for precise control in heating systems. This compact unit is specifically engineered for use with on/off electrical controls to operate various types of valves and manifolds, particularly in underfloor heating applications.

Les característiques clau inclouen:

• Compatibilitat: Designed for seamless integration with Danfoss RA 2000 valve bodies.
• Funcionament: Functions as a normally closed (NC) device, meaning the valve is closed when power is off.
• Indicador visual: Equipped with a position indicator for easy visual confirmation of the actuator's status.
• Subministrament elèctric: Operates on a 230-volt power supply.
• Longitud del cable: Features a 1.2-meter electrical cable for flexible installation.

Imatge 1.1: The Danfoss 088H3112 electrothermal actuator. It is a white cylindrical unit with a black connector, attached to a coiled white electrical cable. The cable has two exposed wire ends, one blue and one brown, for electrical connection. The actuator features a red indicator on its side.

4. Configuració i instal·lació

This section outlines the general steps for installing the Danfoss 088H3112 actuator. For detailed instructions specific to your heating system, consult your system's documentation or a qualified professional.

1. Prepare the Valve Body: Ensure the valve body (e.g., Danfoss RA 2000) is clean and free of debris.
2. Muntar l'actuador: Carefully place the actuator onto the designated connection point of the valve body. Twist or secure it according to the valve body's mechanism until it is firmly attached. Do not overtighten.
3. Connexió elèctrica: Connect the actuator's electrical cable to the 230V power supply. Ensure correct polarity and secure all connections within an appropriate junction box or terminal block. Refer to local electrical codes for proper wiring practices.
4. Verifica la instal·lació: After installation, visually inspect all connections to ensure they are secure.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

The Danfoss 088H3112 electrothermal actuator operates automatically based on the electrical signal it receives from your heating control system (e.g., thermostat, timer).

• Normalment tancat (NC): When there is no electrical power supplied to the actuator, it will remain in its closed position, preventing flow through the valve.
• Opening the Valve: When the control system sends a 230V electrical signal to the actuator, it will begin to open the valve. This process typically takes a few minutes as the internal heating element warms up.
• Tancament de la vàlvula: When the electrical signal is removed, the actuator will cool down and gradually return to its normally closed position, shutting off flow.
• Position Indicator: The red indicator on the side of the actuator provides a visual cue of its operational status. When the valve is open, the indicator will typically be extended or in a different visible position compared to when it is closed.

6. Manteniment

The Danfoss 088H3112 electrothermal actuator is designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the unit.

• Neteja: Periodically wipe the exterior of the actuator with a dry, soft cloth to remove dust and debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Inspecció: Occasionally check the electrical connections for any signs of wear or loosening. Ensure the actuator remains securely mounted to the valve body.
• Eviteu el desmuntatge: Do not attempt to disassemble the actuator, as this will void the warranty and may cause damage or electrical hazard.

7. Solució De Problemes

If you experience issues with your Danfoss 088H3112 actuator, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Actuator Not Moving/Valve Not Opening:
  • Check if the 230V power supply is active and reaching the actuator.
  • Verify that the control system (thermostat, timer) is calling for heat/flow.
  • Inspect electrical wiring for loose connections or damage.
  • Ensure the actuator is correctly mounted on the valve body.
• Valve Not Closing/Constant Heat:
  • Confirm that the control system is no longer calling for heat/flow and has removed the 230V signal.
  • Allow sufficient time for the actuator to cool down and return to its normally closed position.
  • Check for any physical obstructions preventing the valve from closing.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, contact a qualified HVAC technician or Danfoss customer support.
