Shipment and on-site transport
4.3.1 Transporting the valve
The control valve can be transported using
lifting equipment (e.g. crane or forklift).
Î Leave the control valve in its transport
container or on the pallet to transport it.
Î Observe the transport instructions.
Transport instructions
− Protect the control valve against external
inuences (e.g. impact).
− Do not damage the corrosion protection
(paint, surface coatings). Repair any
damage immediately.
− Protect the piping and any mounted
valve accessories against damage.
− Protect the control valve against moisture
and dirt.
− The permissible transportation tempera-
ture of standard control valves is –20 to
+65°C.
Contact our after-sales service for the trans-
portation temperatures of other valve ver-
sions.
4.3.2 Lifting the valve
Due to the low service weight, lifting equip-
ment is not absolutely necessary to lift the
control valves (e.g. to install them into the
pipeline). To install a large valve into the
pipeline, use lifting equipment (e.g. crane or
forklift) to lift it.
Lifting instructions using lifting equipment
and slings
− Use a hook with safety latch to secure the
slings from slipping off the hook during
lifting and transporting.
− Secure slings against slipping. Secure the
slings attached to the body against slip-
ping using a connector.
− Make sure the slings can be removed
from the valve once it has been installed
into the pipeline.
− Prevent the control valve from tilting or
tipping over.
− Do not leave loads suspended when in-
terrupting work for longer periods of
time.
