1. OVERVIEW
Hi-Kalibre is pleased to introduce our next generation of Top Drive Rotary Actuators. We have recently
undertaken the task of redesigning our actuator to eliminate operational maintenance requirements, improve
field serviceability, and enhance product performance. After an extensive development and testing phase, we
have eliminated the need for operational greasing, exceeded all of our performance and serviceability targets,
and maintained backwards compatibility with existing products. The redesign has been incorporated into our
entire Rotary Actuator product line (i.e. 3086, 4186, 4187, 4189, 5187, 5190, 5191, 5192 Series). Field retrofit
kits for existing actuators are also available..

• The Roto Sleeve and the Upper and Lower End Caps have been changed to eliminate the
grease facility.
• The Upper and Lower Cylinders have also been modified to remove the greasing facility
and at the same time we have added some weight reducing features to the design to
improve the dynamic performance of the unit.

3. FIELD RETROFITS
The new hub design is fully interchangeable with previously supplied actuators and can be supplied as a
complete kit for easy field changes. The kit comes complete with all items assembled to the hub. The actuator
to be converted needs only to have the endplate removed and the new bearing hub installed. Additional
fittings are supplied to plug off unnecessary grease ports. The following are the conversion kit part numbers:
4. SHOP RETROFITS
As another option to purchasing a complete hub field retrofit kit, Hi-Kalibre will also be offering a hub
modification service that can be done at the time of repair or on spare hubs sent in from the field. The hub will
be inspected to ensure all wear is within acceptable limits and then the hub will be modified to accept the
bearings. The ancillary items such as the bearings, plates, new seals, pins, springs, etc. will be added to the
modified hub and the package will be shipped back ready for installation. Additional fittings will be supplied
loose to plug off the grease ports in the actuator.
5. TRANSITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
Hi-Kalibre has elected to have a transitional phase in order to get bearing hubs into the field faster as we
believe they offer a significant improvement over the current design. This transitional design provides all the
benefits of the new design but maintains backwards compatibility with the old hub design. This will apply to the
4186 and 5187 product lines only. In the transitional phase the hub will be supplied in the new configuration
while all other major components remain unchanged. The following details the implementation plan for each
model and the associated serial numbers. These serial numbers may change depending on manufacturing
considerations during component production.
