Service Instructions
MAN-02-08-77-0714-EN Rev. 2
Section 12:
12.1
Storage Procedures
The actuator should be immediately stored in a clean, dry warehouse, free from
vibration and rapid temperatures changes, until it can be installed and energized.
If the actuator must be stored outside, it should be stored off of the ground at an elevation
sufficient to prevent it from being immersed in water or buried in snow, and covered to
prevent damage from site debris.
If the actuator is not attached to a valve, the preferred orientation is with the motor and
electrical compartment horizontal.
Care should be taken to plug all open ports on the actuator and all controls to keep out
foreign contaminates.
12.2
Service Interval
Routine maintenance is generally unnecessary. Normally recommended service
interval for Bettis actuators is five years or maximum actuator seal life cycle, whichever
occurs first.
NOTE:
Storage time is considered as part of the Service Interval time.
It is recommended that Service Kits be ordered approximately three (3) months prior to
scheduled maintenance to assure availability.
