The Rotork actuator has many functions, including counting and recording each operation. If you want to set the upward and downward positions of the actuator, you must install it together with the valve and power it on; then you can set the upper and lower limits based on the valve’s position – that is, 0 for closed position and 100 for fully open position. It is also possible to adjust these settings according to your actual usage conditions; for example, if you set it to 100 when the valve is open halfway, then the actuator will display 100 while the valve itself is actually at 50%. For specific instructions on how to make these settings, please contact me via the in-site messaging system, provided that you have the remote control for the Rotork actuator
