Mounting the Actuator

Refer to Weights and Measures page 54 for Actuator weights.

Ensure the valve is secure before fitting the actuator as the combination
maybe top heavy and therefore unstable.
If it is necessary to lift the actuator using mechanical lifting equipment
certified slings should be attached as indicated in Fig.18a for vertical valve
shafts and Fig.18b for horizontal shafts.
Trained and experienced personnel should ensure safe lifting particularly
when mounting actuators at other angles.
WARNING
The actuator should be fully supported until full valve shaft engagement is
achieved and the actuator is secured to the valve flange.
Fig. 18a Fig. 18b
A suitable mounting flange conforming to ISO 5210 or USA Standard MSS
SP101 must be fitted to the valve.
Actuator to valve fixing must conform to Material Specification ISO Class
8.8, yield strength 628 N/sq mm.
WARNING
Do not lift the actuator and valve combination via the actuator. Always lift
the valve/actuator assembly via the valve.
Each assembly must be assessed on an individual basis for safe lifting.
