Figure 3. Lifting Guidelines (continued)
CAUTION
Care must be taken when lifting the valve/actuator assembly to ensure the accessories and tubing are not damaged in the
process. The entire NPS 14 assembly with accessories weighs approximately 3656 kg (8060 lb) and the entire NPS 16
assembly with accessories weighs approximately 3597 kg (7930 lb). Make sure to use appropriate lifting
straps/eyebolts/hoists capable of lifting this weight.
Lifting Valve/Actuator Assembly
To lift the assembly, insert 1-1/4-7 UNC swivel hoist rings into the four lifting hole locations on the outside diameter of
the bonnet flange. The lifting point must be high enough away from the top of the accessory mountings to prevent
damage to accessories or piping. The h­beam illustrated in figure 2 is adjustable axially along the pipe run in order to
lift at the center of gravity (CG) of the assembly. Two adjustable length chains on one side of the valve body ensure the
assembly is lifted vertically. Refer to the appropriate drawing for the CG of your assembly.
Lifting Actuator Only
WARNING
Do NOT attempt to lift the actuator while attached to the bonnet or valve body as this will damage components and could
cause bodily harm.
