2 Safety Unsafe practices and other important information are emphasised in this manual. Warnings are emphasised by means of special signs. 2.2 Warning signs General warning Caustic agents Danger of injury: (an extra yellow label marked on the actuator from June 2016) NOT attempt to cut the actuator open due to spring under load.
NOT allowed NOT to To prevent shock in the actuator and to prevent exceeding 10 bar/145 PSI product pressure, Alfa Laval recommends NOT exceed 3 bar/43.5 PSI support air on the spring side in all the Unique SSV actuators. If support air is connected always use the 3 bar/43.5 PSI air relief fittings = 9611995903.

Pay special attention to this instructions below so that severe personal injury and/or damage to the valve are avoided. STORAGE STORAGE STORAGE Ideally, as a guide Alfa Laval recommend: - Store supplied product as supplied in original packaging - Port opening should be protected against any ingress - Bare steel (not stainless) should be lightly oiled/greased - Store in a clean, dry place without direct sunlight or UV light - Temperature range -5 to 40°C...
Do NOT NOT attempt to disassemble the actuator due to - CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION spring under load danger! Alfa Laval cannot be held responsible for incorrect installation. - Always Always Always release compressed air after use. - Always Always Always read the technical data thoroughly.
