SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WAGATE GATES AND VALVES – SVL, RVL, SVL-T, SVM-TG & RVM-TG SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS This manual must be read and fully understood before the product is commissioned. All personnel working with the device must be familiar with the safety and warning instructions in this document.
Note that all actuators delivered by the manufacturer will not be fully commissioned before delivery, as the installation of the electrical connection and communication interface can only be performed on-site. We recommend hiring a trained technician with knowledge of the selected type of actuator for this task.

The table below shows the applicable areas of use for each valve type, as well as the available types of operation. If a valve is used outside its intended application area, proper functionality cannot be guaranteed. Please contact Wapro for advice. MODEL PRESSURE...
45 degrees from the vertical position in any direction. Exceeding this limit may result in reduced watertightness, blockage of moving parts, and permanent damage to the valve. If an installation position beyond 45 degrees is required, please contact Wapro for alternatives.
SERVICE ACCESS To perform proper repair and service on the valve, a space directly above the valve head, equal to the height of the valve body, must be kept clear of other pipes and components to allow removal. SUPPORT DN 110-DN 315: Valves of these sizes are self-supporting and can be suspended with their pipes without additional support.
BURIED INSTALLATION All wapro valves, except those with actuators, can be installed directly in the ground. The valve should not be buried deeper than half of its nominal pressure rating. example: for a valve rated for 1 bar/10 meters of water pressure, the maximum installation depth is 5 meters.

For custom installation solutions, please contact Wapro. ACTUATORS All Wapro valves are available with a wide range of actuators, both for direct installation on the valve and to extend the valve spindle. Lengths are made to order. Note that valves are delivered as standard without any actuator.
RETROFITTING ACTUATORS If the user wishes to install an actuator, we recommend contacting Wapro for technical information on torque requirements and interface dimensions. If an actuator adapter is installed, the unit's interface follows ISO 5211.
ELECTRIC ACTUATOR The unit can be equipped with various types of electric actuators, typically from the manufacturer AUMA. The wiring diagram for the actuator varies depending on the actuator speci- fications. Therefore, a wiring diagram and a complete manual are provided physically with each actuator.
To open the valve, pull on the valve handle. The water pressure pressing on the valve can give a reasonable amount of resistance to initial movement, but this is completely normal behavior. The valve is fully open when a resistance is met. Never use heavy equipment to move the valve, as excessive force can permanently damage the valve.
AUMA specific manual supplied with the actuator or get the local branch of AUMA to carry out the commissioning. Contact Wapro for further advice. LOCAL ELECTRIC OPERATION To operate the valve using the selector switch [5] is moved into the “Local”...
REMOTE ELECTRIC OPERATION To operate the valve remotely the selector switch [5] is moved into the “remote” position. The actuator will no longer react to the local controls and is controlled by the signals sent to it via its connection interface.
INSTALLATION Please be aware that SVM-TG delivered with AUMA actuators are not pre-configured by Wapro. To commission the actuator together with the valves, the AUMA- specific manual should be used. Below is a chart that shows the number of rotations for opening/closing and the required torque to set the actuator for a given valve size.
MAINTENANCE When servicing and maintaining the assembled SVM-TG, it is crucial to ensure that the rotary switch (5) on the AUMA control panel is set to position 0 and that it is locked. When the rotary switch is in position 0, the valve can be operated manually using the handwheel on the AUMA actuator.
ELECTRIC OPERATION LINAK ACTUATOR, IF SUPPLIED COMMISSIONING The valve with actuator and controller is delivered ready to use with the basic setup already carried out. For more advised options, including remote control some setup is required. See the specific controller documentation for setup procedures.
REMOTE ELECTRIC OPERATION To operate the valve remotely the button [2] has to be pressed to get the controller into “remote” position. The actuator will no longer react to the local controls and is controlled by the signals sent to it via its connection interface. The precise details of these depend on the configuration of the controller.
• Inspect the devise for visual signs of damage. If any significant damage is found, please contact Wapro for advice. EVERY 12 MONTHS • If supplied with AUMA actuator, the actuator has an internal movement counter to keep track of movements. The gaskets should be inspected for wear or tears.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS Disassembly of valve to change internal components or gaskets. Note that this service must be done while the valve is not under pressure. To make the service easier, the valve should be fully open before starting. 2. Remove the handwheel or any other operating device present.

Unscrew the spindle from the spindle nut (only applicable to SVM-TG & RVM-TG) If the gasket must be changed a thin piece of plastic has to be inserted into valve between the gate and the gasket, before removing the gate. Otherwise reinserting the gate is impossible without damaging the gate.
WAPRO A/S WARRANTY Wapro will address defects in material and/or workmanship in all new Wapro valves for a period of two (2) years from the documented purchase date, as long as the valve has been used in accordance with Wapro’s instructions and recommendations under normal operating conditions.
