Operating Instructions
3. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
Risk of injury caused by failure to observe the safety regulations!
Caution
● Wear the required personal and other protective equipment.
● Protect the linear actuator from impacts, shock, vibration and similar influences.
● Store the linear actuator (and, if necessary, the complete actuator/valve assembly) in a dry place.
● Observe the transport and storage temperature of -20 to +60°C.
4. MOUNTING
4.1 Mounting position
When mounted with the connecting rod in horizontal position, mount the linear actuator such that
the two rods of the yoke are positioned on top of each other in the vertical plane.
Damage caused by missing valve!
Caution
● If the linear actuator is operated without a valve, the missing stop may cause damage to the actuator.
The actuator must therefore never be operated without a valve.
● Allow for about 200 mm space above the cover at the site of installation.
● Check the work environment before mounting the actuator and before putting it into operation:
● Make sure that the valve is correctly installed. For detailed information, refer to
the valve's installation instructions.
● Determine the mounting position of the linear actuator. Do not mount linear actuators in downward
position.
