Abstract: An actuator is usable in an airside system, waterside system, building management system, or HVAC system. The actuator includes a housing. The housing has a socket with an interior passage that includes a male connector. The socket may extend outwardly from the housing. The actuator also includes an overmolded cable sized to fit in the interior passage and including a female connector that receives the male connector within the socket. The actuator includes a coupling device that surrounds the overmolded cable and is coupled to the socket and maintains an electrical connection between the male connector and female connector.

Abstract: An actuator is usable in an airside system, waterside system, building management system, or HVAC system. The actuator includes a housing. The housing includes an enclosure having an interior surface with a channel. The channel includes a ledge portion. The channel extends through the enclosure. The actuator includes a yoke having a notch located on an external surface of the yoke. The actuator includes a locking mechanism including a ring having a tab. The tab is defined by a width of the channel and a width of the notch. Following assembly, the yoke is positioned in the enclosure such that the notch rests upon the ledge portion. Additionally, the locking mechanism is positioned on an opposite side of the enclosure with the tab positioned in the channel adjacent to the notch. As a result, the locking mechanism inhibits movement of the yoke relative to the enclosure.

Abstract: A variety of assemblies are configured for use with an actuator. An adaptor includes protrusions configured to engage grooves in a channel wall of the actuator and a snapping structured configured to receive a snapping feature of an output gear. A spring clip rotatably secures a yoke having a yoke slot and an output gear having a circumferential slot in the output channel of the adaptor. A lock clip has an arm and a lock clip, the lock clip having an inner wall shaped to correspond to a polygonal opening that extends through the base ring of a yoke. An adaptor prevents a valve from being coupled to the actuator by a bracket in one or more incorrect orientations, and permits the valve to be coupled to the actuator by the bracket in the correct orientation.
