Measures for preparation
Version with flanges
1. Attach one sling to each flange of the
body and to the rigging equipment (e.g.
hook) of the crane or forklift (see Fig. 4).
2. NPS 6 and larger: Attach another sling
to the lifting eyelet on the actuator and to
the rigging equipment.
3. Carefully lift the control valve. Check
whether the lifting equipment and acces-
sories can bear the weight.
4. Move the control valve at an even pace
to the site of installation.
5. Install the valve into the pipeline (see sec-
tion 5.2).
6. After installation in the pipeline, check
whether the flanges are bolted tight and
the valve in the pipeline holds.
7. Remove slings.
Version with welding ends
1. Attach one sling to each welding end of
the body and to the rigging equipment
(e.g. hook) of the crane or forklift (see
Fig. 4).
2. Secure the slings attached to the body
against slipping using a connector.
3. NPS 6 and larger: Attach another sling
to the lifting eyelet on the actuator and to
the rigging equipment.
4. Carefully lift the control valve. Check
whether the lifting equipment and acces-
sories can bear the weight.
5. Move the control valve at an even pace
to the site of installation.
6. Install the valve into the pipeline (see sec-
tion 5.2).
7. After installation in the pipeline, check
whether the weld seams hold.
8. Remove slings.
We recommend using a hook with safety latch (see Fig. 4). The safety latch prevents the
slings from slipping during lifting and transporting.
