Unpacking and Storage
3.1 Unpacking
1. While unpacking the Logix 3400MD
positioner, check the packing
list against the materials received. Lists describing the system and
accessories are included in each shipping container.
2. When lifting the system from the shipping container, position lifting
straps to avoid damage to mounted accessories. Systems with
valves up to six inches may be lifted by actuator lifting ring. On
larger systems, lift unit using lifting straps or hooks through the
yoke legs and outer end of body.
0
WARNING:
When lifting a valve/actuator assembly with
lifting straps, be aware the center of gravity may be above
the lifting point. Therefore, support must be given to
prevent the valve/actuator from rotating. Failure to do so
can cause serious injury to personnel or damage to nearby
equipment.
3. In the event of shipping damage, contact the shipper immediately.
4. Should any problems arise, contact a Flowserve Flow Control
representative.
3.2 Storage
Control valve packages (a control valve and its instrumentation) can
be safely stored in an enclosed building that affords environmental
protection; heating is not required. Control valve packages must be
stored on suitable skids, not directly on the floor. The storage location
must also be free from flooding, dust, dirt, etc.
Long Term Storage of Logix 3000 series Positioners in Humid
Locations
The Logix 3000 series positioners are designed to operate in humid
environments when connected to a proper instrument air supply. There
are some occasions when valves and positioners are stored at job
sites or installed and commissioned and then left without instrument
air for months. To make startup easier for units that are left without
instrument air and insure that the positioners will be ready to operate,
it is recommended that the vent assembly of the positioner be sealed
preferably with a desiccant pouch sealed with the vent assembly.
