How to Maintain and Troubleshoot 3-Position Pneumatic Actuators

2025-04-07

Here are the methods for maintaining and troubleshooting 3 - position pneumatic actuators:

Maintenance

Regular cleaning: Wipe the surface of the actuator regularly to remove dust, oil stains and other dirt to prevent them from entering the interior of the actuator and affecting its performance.

Lubrication: Lubricate the moving parts of the actuator according to the manufacturer's instructions. Usually, a suitable lubricating oil is injected into the oil injection port to reduce friction and wear.

Inspection of seals: Check the seals of the actuator regularly. If there is any sign of leakage, replace the seals in a timely manner to ensure the normal operation of the actuator.

Air supply system check: Regularly check the air supply system to ensure that the air pressure is stable and the air quality is good. Filter the compressed air to remove moisture and impurities.

Troubleshooting

Actuator does not move: First, check if there is air supply and whether the air pressure is sufficient. Then check if the control valve is working properly and whether the actuator piston is stuck due to dirt or wear.

Slow movement of the actuator: This may be due to insufficient air supply, a leak in the air circuit, or excessive friction in the moving parts. Check the air supply system and the seals, and lubricate the moving parts.

Inaccurate positioning: Check if the position sensor is working properly and if there is any interference in the control signal. Also, check if the mechanical connection of the actuator is loose.
