  • Page 9: Actuator Installation

    Service Instructions Section 1: Introduction VA001-196-31 Rev. 5 June 2024 1.11 Actuator Installation Since there are many valve and actuator combinations, it is not practical to include detailed instructions for each type. Mountings are designed to be as simple as possible to keep guess work out of installation.
  • Page 10: Actuator Operation

    Section 1: Introduction Service Instructions June 2024 VA001-196-31 Rev. 5 NOTE: When the actuator is first placed into service, it should be cycled with regulated pneumatic pressure. This is necessary because the seals have been stationary, causing them to take a “set”. Therefore, the actuator should be operated through several cycles to exercise the seals so as to achieve a service ready condition.
