MOUNTING THE J3C ACTUATOR TO 1/4 TURN VALVES
J3C Actuators have mounting facilities in accordance with ISO:5211 and DIN:3337 allowing them, in many cases, to mount directly onto similarly compliant
valves without the need for a mounting kit (bracket and drive adaptor/ connector). The main advantages of direct mounting the actuators is to greatly assist in
ensuring concentricity of the actuator output drive with the valve stem which eliminates side loadings (which result in increased wear on the valve stem and
seals), reducing the effects of backlash in the drive train as there are fewer parts connected, and allowing valves to be part dismantled for installation into the
pipe without disturbing the valve to actuator connection.
The drive being inserted into the actuator’s female output drive must NOT be longer than the maximum depth of the female drive when the
assembly is bolted together.
Resulting damage to the actuator and assembled components due to this assembly error will not be covered by our
warranty.

WEATHERPROOF RATING
The J3C electric actuators have an ingress protection rating of IP67, which gives them total protection against
almost all kinds of weather and allows the actuator to be submerged under less than 1m of water for no more
than 30 minutes. However, it cannot withstand being hosed down or pressure washed, or deluged in water.
If the J3C is to be exposed to hosing down or pressure washing, a plastic bag must be first put over the J3C
actuator to protect it from the direct hosing down. Even in these circumstances, do not pressure wash the
plastic bag close up.
Damage caused by water ingress is therefore not normally covered by the warranty.
RECYCLE AT END OF LIFE
J+J is committed to the protection of the environment.
Please remember at end of life to dispose of responsibly and if the facilities are available recycle.

MOUNTING ORIENTATION
J3C actuators should never be installed with the actuator
underneath the valve, or below the horizontal.
