HONEYWELL MLP ACTUATORS (FAIL-IN-PLACE)

It is critical to select and use the best possible actuators to achieve optimum indoor climate control with PICVs. Faster and more
accurate actuators respond better to the control signal, for better results and higher comfort.
Honeywell offers the impressive MLP, MLE, and thermoelectrical actuators, which have been designed for use with the threaded
VPI PICV series. They enable a new dimension of benefits to HVAC control, offering designers, system integrators, and building
owners.

Actuator Switch Function
The valve functions are adjusted with the DIP switches under the connection cover.
Table 7. Switch functions of MLP71MAA actuators.
Switch number Switch function Factory Settings

Switch 1 Auto cycle ON/OFF
If the plant specifications permit it, the auto cycle can be activated during
commissioning. Auto cycle prevents the valve from jamming when the valve is not OFF
moved for a longer period of inactivity, e.g. for heating systems during the summer.
When the auto cycle is activated, the actuator will perform 50% stroke cycle if no
stroke movement has occurred during a 3-week period.
Switch 2 Analog 2-10V DC / 0-10V DC

0-10V DC
Setting control range by the continuous actuating signal 0-10V DC or 2-10V DC.
Switch 3 Normally open / Normally closed

Normally closed; 0V
Setting actuating direction with 10V DC control signal to “valve open” or “valve DC = valve closed
closed” as well as the position feedback.
Switch 4 Equal % control / Linear control

Linear control
Setting of actuating control curve to either equal percentage or linear control.
Switch 5 No function. Close
Switch 6 Electrical override

Setting override function to ON and the actuator will open valve fully. When set to Off
OFF again, the actuator will re-calibrate and thereafter go into normal operation
mode.
