Transport, storage and packaging

4.1

Transport

For transport to place of installation, use sturdy packaging.

Do not attach ropes or hooks to the handwheel for the purpose of lifting by

hoist.

If part-turn actuator is mounted on valve, attach ropes or hooks for the

purpose of lifting by hoist to valve and not to part-turn actuator.

Fitting the ball handle:

To avoid damage during transport, the ball handles are fitted to the inside of the

handwheel. Prior to commissioning, the ball handle has to be fitted in the

correct position.

Remove cap nut (figure A).

Pull out ball handle and re-insert in correct position.

Fasten with cap nut.

Remove label from the handwheel for fitting the ball handle.

4.2

Storage

Store in well-ventilated, dry room.

Protect against floor dampness by storage on a shelf or on

a wooden pallet.

Cover to protect against dust and dirt.

Apply suitable corrosion protection agent to uncoated surfaces.

If part-turn actuators are to be stored for a long time (more than 6 months), the

following points must be observed additionally:

Prior to storage: Protect uncoated surfaces, in particular the output drive parts

and mounting surface, with long-term corrosion protection agent.

Check for corrosion approximately every 6 months. If first signs of corrosion

show, apply new corrosion protection.

After mounting, connect part-turn actuator immediately to elec-
trical mains, so that condensation is prevented by the heater.

4.3

Packaging

Our products are protected by special packaging for the transport ex works. The

packaging consists of environmentally friendly materials which can easily be

separated and recycled.

We use the following packaging materials: wood, cardboard, paper, and Poly-

urethane foam. For the disposal of the packaging material, we recommend recy-

cling and collection centers.
