Contact SAMSON in case of different
storage conditions or long storage peri-
ods.
We recommend regularly checking the actu-
ator and the prevailing storage conditions
during long storage times.
Storage instructions
− When the valve and actuator are al-
ready assembled, observe the storage
conditions for control valves. See associ-
ated valve documentation.
− Protect the actuator against external in-
fluences (e.g. impact).
− Secure the actuator in the stored position
against slipping or tipping over.
− Do not damage the corrosion protection
(paint, surface coatings). Repair any
damage immediately.
− Protect the actuator against moisture and
dirt. Store it at a relative humidity of less
than 75 %. In damp spaces, prevent con-
densation. If necessary, use a drying
agent or heating.
− Make sure that the ambient air is free of
acids or other corrosive media.
− Observe permissible temperatures (see
'Technical data' in the 'Design and prin-
ciple of operation' section).
− Do not place any objects on the actuator.
Special storage instructions for elastomers
Elastomer, e.g. actuator diaphragm
− To keep elastomers in shape and to pre-
vent cracking, do not bend them or hang
them up.
− We recommend a storage temperature of
15 °C for elastomers.
− Store elastomers away from lubricants,
chemicals, solutions and fuels.
Our after-sales service can provide more de-
tailed storage instructions on request.
