Failure  to  comply  with  the  following  procedures  may  impair 
product warranty. Installation, commissioning and maintenance 
and repair works should be carried out by qualified staff. 

A  non-conforming  assembly  could  be  the  source  of  serious 
accidents. 

For actuator assembly on the valve: 

Check  that  the  assembly  position,  as  shown  on  the 
documentation,  complies  with  system’s  geometry.  Check  the 
consistency of the parts of actuator-valve coupling. 

 

Operate  the actuator so  that  it  reaches  the position  matching  valve 
position (Section 3.3). 

 

Lubricate valve stem with oil or grease. 

 

Properly clean and remove grease from coupling flange surfaces. 

 

Connect, if supplied separately, the adjustment insert to valve stem 
and fasten it with the special fastening pins. 

 

Lift the actuator using the special lifting points (Sect. 2.2). 

 

Install  the  actuator  so  that  valve  stem  inserts  in  the  coupling  area. 
This coupling should be made without forcing. 

 

Fasten  the  two  parts  with  the  threaded  connections  (screws,  tie 
rods,  nuts). If holes  of  coupling flanges are not  aligned,  adequately 
operate  the  actuator  if  necessary  move  the  mechanical  stops 
backwards (Sect. 3.4). 

 

Fasten threaded connections. Please refer to Table 1.
