Transport, storage and packaging
5.1
Transport
.
For transport to place of installation, use sturdy packaging.
.
Do not attach ropes or hooks to the handwheel for the purpose of lifting by
hoist.
.
If multi-turn actuator is mounted on valve, attach ropes or hooks for the
purpose of lifting by hoist to valve and not to multi-turn actuator.
Fitting the handwheel:
For transport purposes, handwheels as from a diameter of 400 mm are sup-
plied separately.
Engage manual operation prior to mounting the handwheel!
If the manual operation is not engaged, damage can occur at
the change-over mechanism.
.
Engage manual operation (figure 2):
Manually lift the red change-over lever while slightly turning the shaft back
and forth until manual operation engages. The manual operation is cor-
rectly engaged if the change-over lever can be lifted by approx. 85°.
Manual force is sufficient for operating the change-over
lever. It is not necessary to use an extension. Excessive
force may damage the change-over mechanism.
.
Attach handwheel onto the red change-over lever on shaft (figure 3).
.
Secure handwheel using the circlip supplied.
5.2
Storage
.
Store in well-ventilated, dry room.
.
Protect against floor dampness by storage on a shelf or on a wooden pallet.
.
Cover to protect against dust and dirt.
.
Apply suitable corrosion protection agent to uncoated surfaces.
If multi-turn actuators are to be stored for a long time (more than 6 months),
the following points must be observed additionally:
.
Prior to storage: Protect uncoated surfaces, in particular the output drive
parts and mounting surface, with long-term corrosion protection agent.
.
Check for corrosion approximately every 6 months. If first signs of corro-
sion show, apply new corrosion protection.
After mounting, connect actuator immediately to electrical
system, so that the heater prevents condensation.

Packaging
Our products are protected by special packaging for the transport ex works.
The packaging consists of environmentally friendly materials which can eas-
ily be separated and recycled.
We use the following packaging materials: wood, cardboard, paper, and PE
foil. For the disposal of the packaging material, we recommend recycling
and collection centres.
