What is the part number on the COMPOOL valve?
The actual valve has “Compool” on the housing cover. The valve it controls is a 3-way valve oriented 180°, so I believe the actual part number is a “CVA24T” I’ve read several posts, stating that the Compool actuator is difficult to move manually, whereas the Intermetic is easier.
How can I rebuild my COMPOOL cva-24t actuator?
You’d simply swap out what you have with a new actuator and plug the wire into your automation panel. Easy enough if you wish to do that. Then you could buy the switches and rebuild what you have as a spare. These actuators are actually fairly easy to rebuild in the field.
What to do if your cva-24t valve fails?
Use a multimeter to check the voltage to the actuator. If there is no power to the actuator, check the 24V power source. If you do see power to the actuator, the motor or the switches in your actuator may have failed and will have to be replaced. I would also try this, swap the port inside your controller with another one of your valves.
Why is my Pentair COMPOOL cva-24t valve stuck?
So, I turned the CVA-24T toggle switch opposite to ON1 and then turned it back to ON2. It’s stuck at about 25 degrees. Not sure what that tells me except something is not working in the system. Not sure if this test confirms it is these digikeys or cams.
