Installation
2.4.3.2 Horizontal Pipeline Horizontal Stem
The G4 – G7 Series actuators mounting on a horizontal pipeline with a
vertical valve stem should be supported using the lift lugs attached to the
drive module. A strap may be attached to the stabilization tab on spring
module to balance the unit while lifting. The weight of the actuator must
be supported by the lugs at drive module, not the stabilization tab. See
Figure 5.

CAUTION
Never lift the actuator with a valve attached. Always handle actuator/valve assemblies by
attaching lifting equipment to the valve only.
2.4.4
Mounting the Actuator in a Vertical Orientation on a Horizontal Stem
When mounting an Bettis EHO Actuator in a vertical orientation, the Spring Module must
be positioned up. The actuator may be supported by using two straps in the configuration
shown in Figure 6. A third strap or small chain may be attached to the stabilization tab
on spring module to balance the unit while lifting. The weight of the actuator must be
supported by the straps running over the spring module and under the drive module flange.
