Safety instructions and measures 1 Safety instructions and measures The Type 5824/5825 Electric Actuator is designed to operate a mounted globe valve used in heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems as well as in process engineering and in- dustrial energy transfer systems. The digital positioner ensures a predetermined assignment of the valve position to the input signal.

This declaration of conformity is included in the Appendix of these instructions. The Type 5824/5825 Electric Actuators are designed for use in low voltage installations. Î For wiring, maintenance and repair, observe the relevant safety regulations.
Î Do not insert hands or fingers into the yoke while the valve is in operation. Î Disconnect the power supply before performing any work on the control valve. Î Do not impede the movement of the actuator or plug stem by inserting objects into their path. EB 5824-2 EN...
1.3 Notes on possible property damage NOTICE Risk of damage to the electric actuator due to the power supply exceeding the per- missible tolerances. The Type 5824/5825 Electric Actuators are designed for use according to regulations for low-voltage installations. Î Observe the permissible tolerances of the power supply. Risk of actuator damage due to excessively high tightening torques. Observe the specified torques on tightening the Type 5824/5825 Electric Actuators.
