CTUATORS
CAUTION! Actuators are not to be
mounted, removed, adjusted or
re-installed to or from ValvTech-
nologies valves except by trained
ValvTechnologies personnel.
IMPORTANT!
Valves mounted with electric
actuators should be cycled to
the mid-stroke position before
cycling under power.
WARNING!
VALVES SHOULD NEVER BE USED AS A STRUCTURAL MEMBER.
ORIENTATION
CAUTION! Valves must be installed with the FLOW ARROW
pointing from high to low pressure with the valve in the closed
isolating position. Alternatively the high-pressure end will be
labeled. The high-pressure end is defined as the end with the
highest pressure, with the valve in the closed isolating position.
NOTE: Uni-directional valves should not be installed in lines where a differen-
tial back pressure (from low to high pressure) of 200psi or more may exist.
