Installation

Do not install ICAD before welding. This apply for electrical as well as for mechanical installation. Please observe that ICAD when connected to 24 V DC, will send out acoustic noise at stand still. This has no influence on the function/ operation of the ICAD.
Use
ICAD 600B, ICAD 600B-TS and ICAD 1200B can be used together with the following Danfoss valves (fig. 1, 5a and 5b).

Danfoss ICAD 600B Motor Actuator - icon 1 Please observe cable voltage drop.
Distance between the applied DC transformer and the ICAD terminal box may cause a voltage drop. Cross section of cables and size of DC transformer must be calculated so that the voltage at all time at the ICAD terminal box*, both during standstill and during operation of ICAD, is within this range:

ICAD must be connected to a normal 24 V DC supply. As an option, a fail safe supply is possible by means of a battery or UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply). When voltage is applied as described below, ICAD is ready to be configurated.
See Parameter list.
ICAD configuration can be done independently whether the ICAD is installed on the valve or not.
See Mechanical installation.
Connect the White (+) and Brown (–) to 24 V DC supply voltage (fig. 6)
Fail safe supply as an option (not mandatory).
Connect the Black (+) and Brown (–) to a fail safe supply.
Mechanical installation
General procedure for ICAD 600B/ICAD 600B-TS/1200B installed on all valves (fig. 3).

  • Check that the two socket screws are fully unscrewed counter clockwise with a 3 mm Hexagon key
  • If valve is fitted with PTFE ring and O-ring, remove both and replace it with O-ring included in ICAD (as instructed in fig. 3)
  • Mount ICAD by slowly lowering it on top of the valve.
  • The magnet coupling will drag the valve and ICAD together and in position
  • Push ICAD in place
  • Fasten valve and ICAD with the two socket set screws using a 3 mm Hexagon key

Power on & start operation

ICAD has a light guide viewable from three sides, which indicates the status. Immediately after power on the light guide and display lights up.Danfoss ICAD 600B Motor Actuator - viewableDanfoss ICAD 600B Motor Actuator - viewable1The main screen layout and navigation is as described below.
