Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions
INTRODUCTION
Note: For M.A.S. housing assembly, installation, and maintenance
instructions, refer to Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Manual
WCAIM2005.
The Worcester/McCanna Series 90 M.A.S. Solenoid Block Kit can
provide on/off or modulating control for both single- and double-
acting pneumatic valve actuators. The type and number of solenoid
valves varies for the differing applications:
• Single-acting on/off (spring-return) uses one three-way solenoid
valve.
• Double-acting on/off uses one four-way solenoid valve.
• Single- or double-acting modulating applications use two three-
way solenoid valves.
The solenoid valves used in the M.A.S. are marked with a voltage
rating. Although the 120 volt solenoids are intended for use with AC
power, they actually operate on DC. Valves marked 120 or 120 VAC
therefore require the use of special lead wires incorporating a built-
in rectifier. It is this rectifier that converts the incoming AC power to
DC power.
All lead wires are equipped with quick-connect plugs that are easily
connected/disconnected to the solenoid valve. The plugs will only fit
one way—do not force the plugs together; damage can result.

The various solenoid options are designed to operate either single-
acting or double-acting actuators. Each of these applications requires
its own air porting to operate properly. The solenoid block gasket has
been designed to adapt the solenoid block to the Series 90 M.A.S.
housing air connections for each type of operation. The gasket is
illustrated here for future reference in this section of the instructions.
NOTE: The double-acting block will operate and increase the speed of a
single-acting actuator. To accomplish this, plug the “B” Port on the
M.A.S. base. This is recommended for size 25 and larger 39 actuators.
AIR SUPPLY: Lubricated or dry air (or other non-corrosive gas)
PRESSURE: 45 – 100 PSI.
FILTRATION: Strongly recommended—refer to table below.

NOTE: Where lubrication is required, Vaseline or other non-
corrosive grease is acceptable unless otherwise noted. Use
sparingly.
1. Attach the solenoid valve (item 2) to the solenoid block (item
1) in the orientation shown using the #4-40 screws (item 5)
and gasket (item 3) provided.
