• Fail-to-close: The actuator moves to the valve closed position.
A lead acid battery is selected for the UPS due to robust and well-proven
technology.
The failsafe module introduces changes to the overall actuator appearance and
function. The following limitations are important to consider during the design
phase.
• Location class for temperature is reduced from class D to class A when the
option failsafe is selected.
• Space needs increased, see Appendix B.4.v Space requirements on page 69.
• The battery needs a maintenance plan to maintain operationally ready, and to
be certain that the battery health’s is reported correctly. This is a requirement
from DNV GL and is needed to give alarms on battery change time.
• Storage conditions and charging of batteries in storage. A power plan must
be established concerning the installation of the failsafe actuator.

The bottom views for the motor and gear housing and the communication
interface box are identical to the standard version shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6
on pages 21and 21.
