9.1 Emergency action
The valve, on which the actuator with fail-safe action is mounted, is moved to its fail-safe po-
sition upon failure of the supply voltage (see the 'Design and principle of operation' section).
Plant operators are responsible for emergency action to be taken in the plant.
Emergency action in the event of valve failure is described in the associated valve documen-
tation.
