5 Installation

The work described in this section is only to be performed by personnel appropriately quali-
fied to carry out such tasks.

5.1 Installation conditions

Work position
If not described otherwise in the valve documentation, the work position for the control valve
is the front view looking onto the operating controls.
Mounting orientation
The actuator can be installed in any position. Restriction apply to actuators with mechanical
override: see Fig. 5-1.
Note
The mounting position of the valve determines how the actuator is mounted (see associated
control valve documentation).
Tip
We recommend installing valves in sizes larger than DN 100 upright with the actuator point-
ing up to facilitate valve maintenance.
Î Observe the clearance required to remove the cover or entire actuator (see dimension-
al drawings in the 'Design and principle of operation' section).
