  • Page 19: Functional Description

    Description Functional description Functional description 3.5.1 Pneumatic Actuator The compressed air which enters above the piston causes a downwards movement of the piston and the disk of the butterfly valve opens. When the air supply is shut off, the valve closes automatically as a result of the spring force. The stroke of the piston is converted into a rotary movement of the shaft.
  • Page 20: Manual Actuator Type H

    Description Functional description 3.5.4 Manual Actuator Type H Fig.10 To open or close the mixproof butterfly valve, unlock the hand lever (1) by gently pulling it out of the locking device and turn it through 90°. When the lever is released, it locks into place in the holes provided.
  • Page 21 Description The mixproof butterfly valve is used for separating media. The valve disk (1) as the shut-off element is supported between two flanges screwed together (2, 3) and plain bearings (5). The valve positions are OPEN / CLOSED. In the CLOSED position, two media can be reliably separated from one another. The leakage cavity is open towards the atmosphere in this case.
