Important 

To guarantee the correct transmission of torque from the actuator to valve stem 
without phenomena of slip it is important to: 

-  remove any trace of oil and/or grease from the mating surfaces of actuator 

and bracket (or flange) [1] and from bracket (or flange) and valve flange [2].  

-  tighten  the  bolts  fixing  the  bracket  (or  flange)  to  the  bottom  flange  of  the 

actuator with the torque specified into the following Table 1. 

tighten  the  bolts  fixing  the  bracket  (or  flange)  to  the  bottom  flange  of  the 
actuator with the torque specified into the following Table 2, provided that the 
valve maker verifies and guarantees the correct transmission of required valve 
torque.

(1) The torque  values  in  Tables 1  and 2  have been calculated  considering  the standard  bolting made in 

Carbon  Steel  according  to  ASTM  A320  grade  L7/ASTM  A193  grade  B7 for  bolts/screws  and ASTM 
A194 grade  4 for  the nuts.  Alternative  bolting in  Stainless  Steel  are  permitted  i.e. ASTM  A193  B8M 
(Class 2 or 2C) for bolts/screws and ASTM A194 grade 8M for the nuts, provided that yield strength of 
bolts/screws is not less than 450 MPa. 

 
 

5.6.3 

Pneumatic Connections 

 

Warning: Check that the values of pneumatic supply available are compatible with those 
reported on the identification plate of the actuator. 

Warning: Use pipes and connections appropriate as for type, material and dimensions. 

Warning: The connection should be made by qualified staff. 

-

  Properly deburr the ends of rigid pipes. 

-

  Properly clean the interior of pipes sending through them plenty of the supply fluid used in the system. 

-

  Mould and fasten the connection pipes so that no irregular strains at entries or loosening of threaded 

connections occur. 

-

  Make the connections according to the operating diagram. 

-

 

Check the absence of leakages from pneumatic connections. If necessary, tighten the nuts of the pipe-
fittings.
