The V9055 Actuator can be controlled directly from a series 90 controller (except Ihe T991 family), just like the M941 Modutrol Motor. The V9055 has a solid state balancing relay, so it is not sensi- tive to normal burner vibration. Valvalactuator corrtlina- tions providing a Valve Seal Overtrallel Interlocl< are available to meet certain Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and Faclory Mulual requirements.
