the protection level table or contact APV.
RESPONSIBILITY FOR VALVE & ACTUATOR APPLICATION
The User is responsible for ordering the correct valves & actuators. The user is responsible for ensuring
APV Valves & Actuators are selected and installed in conformance with the current pressure rating and
design temperature requirements. Prior to installation, the nameplates and drawings should be checked
for proper identification to ensure the valve & actuator is of the proper type, material and is of a suitable
pressure class and temperature rating to satisfy the requirements of the service application.
Note
We recommend that this entire document be read prior to proceeding with any
installation. Do not attempt to repair this actuator, send it to APV or an APV
approved repair facility. Australian Pipeline Valve and it’s parent company take no
