STORAGE
When an actuator is not put in service immediately (or is used intermittently), it is recommended that the
actuator is operated at least three times a month using compressed air or nitrogen. When it is not possible
to operate them with air or nitrogen, and they can be operated manually (see PRINCIPLES OF MANUAL
OPERATION). It is recommended that they are stored indoors when space is available. Care must be
taken to plug up the openings to prevent the entry of foreign material and humidity. The actuators must not
be stored in places where the atmosphere is detrimental to the elastic seals.
