MCP-3631 Series
Installation Guide
Connections
♦
Use 1/4-inch (6 mm) O.D. FR polyethylene tubing
♦
Use only clean, dry control air. No attempt should
be made to use any other medium.
♦
Connect the signal (0 to 20 psig) to the 3/16-inch
fitting on the base of the actuator.
NOTE: If the application requires operation near
the maximum temperature and maximum
pressure, add a tubing restraint to the
actuator connection.

Maintenance
No routine maintenance is required. Each compo-
nent is designed for dependable, long-term reliabil-
ity, and performance. Careful installation will also
ensure long-term reliability and performance.
DANGER
The MCP-3631 contains a large powerful
spring. Exercise extreme caution if disassembly
is required. The actuator shaft MUST be
restrained to prevent the spring from
expanding!
Adjustments and Calibration
To limit actuator rotation:
1 Insert a 1/4-20 stroke-stop screw into the front
end of the actuator.
2. Refer to the graph for the desired rotation
compared to insertion of stop screw length
CAUTION
Pneumatic devices must be supplied with
clean, dry control air. Any other medium (e.g.,
oil or moisture contamination) will cause the
device to fail.
