COMMISSIONING

These steps must be followed closely before first use. 

MECHANICAL SETUP

After mounting is completed, slowly move the sluice gate from open to closed. Make sure that there is no sudden 

resistance to the movement which would indicate a problem. To prolong the life of the sluice gate, apply a water-

resistant grease to the spindle when commissioning. (I.e. Chesterton 629)

To complete commissioning the complete commissioning step in the operation manual specific to the actuator must 

be completed. 

ELECTRICAL ACTUATOR

The device can be equipped with different types of electrical actuators, most commonly from the manufacturer AUMA. 

The connection diagram for the actuator differs between different specifications of the actuator. Therefore, a connection 

diagram and complete manual is supplied physically with each actuator. If these documents are lost, complete 

documentation can be downloaded from the following website: https://www.auma.com/en/service-support/wiring-

diagrams. The order reference for downloading can be found on the nameplate on the side of the actuator.
