For storage procedures exceeding one year, consult Bettis for further recommendations. As shipped from the factory, the Bettis EHO actuator is an inherently weatherproof unit, providing that all compartment covers and cable entry plugs remain intact. The actuator should be immediately stored in a clean, dry warehouse, free from vibration and rapid temperature changes, until it can be installed and energized.
Installation and Operation Manual Section 2: Installation Part Number: VA001-507-32, Rev. 1 August 2016 Valve Preparation 2.2.1 Remove Valve Gearing if so equipped. 2.2.2 If valve is equipped with stops, remove valve stem extension housing. Examine the valve stops to ensure no foreign material is present that would restrict normal travel of the valve.
Part Number: VA001-507-32, Rev. 1 Lifting the EHO Actuator NOTE: All Bettis EHO G-Series Considerations When handling any EHO G-Series, be aware of tubing, accessories, hand pump, accumulators, Pushbutton module and control enclosures. Straps and chains can become entangled and cause damage to these components. Never use chains on the spring cartridge as it may warp and cause the actuator not to function correctly or may cause personal injury.

Section 2: Installation Installation and Operation Manual August 2016 Part Number: VA001-507-32, Rev. 1 CAUTION: Always use the hand pump to move the actuator off the stop before attempting to turn the adjusting screw. 2.6.5 With the closed position stop set, use the hand pump to move the actuator to the other end of the stroke and check the stop position.
2.8.1 Introduction The Bettis EHO Actuator may be equipped with an accumulator to enable manual operation of the actuator if there is a loss of electrical power. Accumulators always have the nitrogen pressure drained for shipping (except for Thermal Compensating Accumulator see 2.3.4).
Page 17
Section 2: Installation Installation and Operation Manual August 2016 Part Number: VA001-507-32, Rev. 1 NOTE: Recheck the pre-charge pressure after a time interval sufficient to insure the nitrogen pressure is equal to the ambient temperature (a minimum of 4 hours). Adjust the pre-charge pressure as required to conform to the Pressure versus Temperature graph.
