  • Page 7: Adjusting Open And Closed Valve Positions

    DGS, DGD & DGC Series Valve Actuators Adjusting Open and Closed Valve Positions The precise valve open and closed positions are set using the end stop screws. NOTE: Certain valves incorporate their own end stops. For these types of valves, it is recommended that the valve's end stops be adjusted to their maximum travel so that the valve’s end positions are achieved using the actuator’s end stop screws only.
