For standard valve operation, the FQM fail safe unit is combined with an AUMA SQ part-turn actuator.The required torque is transmitted directly from the actuator through the fail safe unit to the valve.
FQMEx 05.1 FQMEx 12.1 Transport, storage and packaging FM version (Class/Division System) Transport, storage and packaging 3.1. Transport For transport to place of installation, use sturdy packaging. Hovering load! Death or serious injury. Do NOT stand below hovering load. Attach ropes or hooks for the purpose of lifting by hoist only to housing and NOT to handwheel.
FQMEx 05.1 FQMEx 12.1 FM version (Class/Division System) Transport, storage and packaging 3.2. Storage Corrosion due to inappropriate storage! Store in a well-ventilated, dry room (maximum humidity 70 %). Protect against floor dampness by storage on a shelf or on a wooden pallet.
To compensate for vibration, we recommend using additional all-metal dampers as available with Stop-Choc ®. AUMA offers an own support. The support is fixed at the output drive flange using Support by AUMA suitable fastening clamps. It includes all-metal dampers to compensate for vibration.
4.2. Actuators for fail safe units An AUMA actuator with AUMA actuator controls are required to operate the valve via fail safe unit. On delivery, the actuator is already mounted to the fail safe unit. The actuator is exactly aligned with regard to the fail safe unit to ensure safe Information unit function.
