Fault 1: The actuator does not move, but the power supply and indicator light of the control module are both on. Solution: Check whether the power supply voltage is correct ; Is the motor wire broken? ; Is there any broken wire from the end of the 10-core plug to each wire terminal? ; Are the plugs of the motor, potentiometer, and capacitor properly connected? ; Use the comparison and swapping method to determine whether the control module is functioning properly. Fault 2: The actuator does not move; the power light is on, but the signal light is not. Solution: Check whether the polarity of the input signal and other parameters are correct ; Use the comparison and swapping method to determine whether the control module is functioning properly. Fault 3: Improper setting of system parameters leads to frequent oscillation of the actuator. Solution: Improper tuning of the regulator’s parameters can cause the system to experience oscillations of varying degrees. In a single-loop control system, too small a proportional band, too short an integration time, and excessive differential time and differential gain can all cause system oscillation. Through systematic tuning, these parameters can be selected appropriately to maintain a stable speed in the loop. Fault 4: The actuator motor heats up rapidly, experiences oscillatory movement, and stops functioning in a short time. Solution: Use the 2V AC voltage setting to check whether there is AC interference at the input terminal of the control module ; Check whether the signal wire is isolated from the power wire ; Are the potentiometers and their wiring in good condition? ; Check whether the feedback component is functioning properly. Fault 5: The actuator moves in a stepwise or crawling manner, with slow movement. Solution: Check whether the signal response time from the operator is correct. Fault 6: The actuator position feedback signal is too large or too small. Solution: Check whether the adjustments of the “zero” and “travel” potentiometers are correct ; Judge by replacing the control module. Fault 7: After the signal is applied, the actuator opens or closes fully, and the limit switch keeps activating. Solution: Check whether the function selection switch of the control module is in the correct position ; “Are the “zero” and “travel” potentiometers adjusted correctly? ; Judge by replacing the control module. Fault 8: Oscillation and buzzing of the actuator. Solution: This is mainly due to the sensitivity being set too high, resulting in a too small insensitive area; such high sensitivity causes the actuator’s feedback loop to become unstable and oscillate. Adjust the sensitivity potentiometer slightly counterclockwise to reduce the sensitivity ; The fluid pressure change is too large, resulting in insufficient thrust from the actuator ; If the control valve is selected to be too large, the valve tends to operate at a low opening degree. Fault 9: The actuator does not operate properly, but the motor does not stop even after the limit switch is activated. Solution: Check for faults in the limit switch and its wiring ; Judge by replacing the control module. Fault 10: Actuator belt broken. Solution: Check whether the internal transmission mechanism of the actuator is damaged or stuck ; “Are the “zero” and “travel” potentiometers adjusted correctly? ; Is the limit switch functioning properly?
