Shipment and on-site transport
Lifting instructions
− Secure slings on the object to be transported against slip-
ping.
− Make sure the slings can be removed from the actuator
once it has been mounted on the valve.
− Prevent the actuator from tilting or tipping.
− Do not leave loads suspended when interrupting work for
longer periods of time.
− Use a hook with safety latch to secure the slings from slip-
ping during lifting and transporting.
− For models bigger than AT651U two threaded holes are
available to lift the actuator by means of eyebolts or simil-
ar components as shown in Fig. 4-2. Do not lift the actua-
tor and valve assembly from these lifting points.

4.4 Storing the actuator
Risk of actuator damage due to improper storage.
Î Observe the storage instructions.
Î Observe the rubber components storage instructions
(T 3.3.3.1 EN).
Î Avoid long storage times. Contact AIR TORQUE in case of
different storage conditions or long storage periods.
It is recommended to regularly check the actuator and the pre-
vailing storage conditions during long storage times.
Storage instructions
− Store the actuator in a clean and dry place.
− Temperature limits are defined by the rubber components
material.
NOTICE
!
Note
Î Refer to the ‘Rubber components storage instruction‘ (T
3.3.3.1 EN).
− When the valve and actuator are already assembled, also
observe the valve storage conditions. Refer to the valve
documentation.
− Protect the actuator against external influences (e.g. im-
pact).
− Secure the actuator in the stored position against slipping
or tipping over.
− Do not damage the corrosion protection (paint, surface
coatings). Repair any damage immediately.
− Protect the actuator against moisture and dirt.
− Make sure that the ambient air is free of acids or other
corrosive media.
− Do not place any objects on the actuator.
− Keep for future references the relevant technical documen-
tation of the actuator.
− Do not remove the plastic plugs from the air connections.
Tip
Our after-sales service (JOGP@airtorque.EF) can provide
more detailed storage instructions on request.
