Model: AG13A000
Product Overview
This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient operation of the Schneider Electric AG13A000 Two Position, 24V, GCO, N.C., General Temp Actuator. Please read all instructions carefully before installation and use.

Image: The Schneider Electric AG13A000 actuator, a compact device with a metallic casing and a label indicating "Erie PopTop Actuator, 2 Position Normally Closed, 24V 50/60Hz 6.5WATTS CLASS 2". Wires are visible on one side, and a metal tab extends from the other.
Setup and Installation
The AG13A000 actuator is designed for two-position control applications. Ensure all local and national electrical codes are followed during installation. Installation should only be performed by qualified personnel.
Safety Precautions
- Disconnect all power to the system before beginning installation or maintenance.
- Verify the supply voltage matches the actuator's specifications (24V, 50/60Hz).
- Avoid contact with live electrical components.
Mounting
Mount the actuator securely to the intended valve or damper mechanism. Refer to the specific valve/damper documentation for proper mechanical coupling. Ensure the actuator is oriented correctly for its intended function (normally closed).
Wiring
Connect the 24V AC/DC power supply to the designated terminals. The actuator is a two-position, normally closed type, meaning it will return to its closed position when power is removed. Consult the wiring diagram provided with your specific system for correct connections.
Note: The actuator is rated for 6.5 Watts and is a Class 2 device.
Operating Instructions
The AG13A000 actuator operates as a two-position, normally closed device. When power is applied, the actuator will move to its open position. When power is removed, it will return to its normally closed position.
Power On/Off
- Power On: Apply 24V AC/DC to the actuator. The actuator will begin to move to its open state.
- Power Off: Remove 24V AC/DC from the actuator. The actuator will return to its normally closed state.
Functional Check
After installation, perform a functional check to ensure the actuator operates as expected. Observe the movement of the valve or damper to confirm it reaches both the fully open and fully closed positions.
Maintenance
The Schneider Electric AG13A000 actuator is designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation under normal conditions. No routine lubrication or adjustment is required.
Periodic Checks
- Periodically inspect the actuator for any signs of physical damage or loose connections.
- Ensure the mounting remains secure and free from excessive vibration.
- Verify that the electrical connections are clean and tight.
Cleaning
If cleaning is necessary, use a dry, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the casing or internal components.
Troubleshooting
This section provides guidance for common issues that may arise with the AG13A000 actuator. For problems not listed here, contact Schneider Electric technical support.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
