one that uniquely designates the valve. This number is also
attached to the body in case the identification plate can no
longer be found.

2 Transport, reception and storage
Check the valve including accessories for shipping damage.
Prior to installation, the valve is to be carefully stored in a
dry roofed room.
Storage temperature = -20° to 80 °C
Relative humidity 85% max. (non-condensing)
The valve must be warehoused with the factory-mounted
covers.
The valve should be transported on-site only a short while
before the installation.
The covers on the openings are to be removed for installing
the valve.
The valve is delivered in closed position.
A valve with an actuator and a spring retainer is delivered in
the position set by the spring (spring opens or closes).
3 Installation
3.1 Installation planning
Consider following aspects before assembly:
You must install the on/off (butterfly) valve, so as to
allow free access to the drive at any time.
Drives that are operated using electric, pneumatic or
hydraulic energy may be connected to the energy sup-
ply only after installing the on/off (butterfly) valve.
The flange holes of both pipeline ends must be exactly
aligned axially with each other, the sealing surfaces of
the opposite flanges must be parallel to each other. The
flange holes may not be distorted from one another, so
that the on/off (butterfly) valve is not exposed to any
stresses during assembly.
