The mechanism will automatically disengage when the actuator is operated electrically. CAUTION: With respect to handwheel operation of Rotork electric actuators, under no circumstances should any additional lever device such as a wheel key or wrench be applied to develop more force when closing or opening...
Electrical Operation Local Control With the red selector positioned at Local (anti- clockwise) the adjacent black knob can be turned to select Open or Close. To stop, turn the red knob clockwise. Local Control Knob When Local is selected on the Red selector the black knob can be turned to open and close the actuator.

Indication Local Indicator On the top cover a continuous position indicator will rotate and change colour to indicate valve position. In the standard configuration green is closed and red is open. Located on the side face of the control Pak, three LED’s also indicate valve position and status.
Mounting the Actuator The ROMpak actuator is suitable for quarter turn non thrust applications. Ensure the valve is secure before fitting the actuator, as the combination may be top heavy and therefore unstable. A suitable mounting flange conforming to ISO 5211 or USA Standard MSS SP101 must be fitted to the valve.
