2.1.4 WD Installation
The Westlock Wireless Device can be mounted on operating installed valves using an
appropriate bracket. Each valve type requires a unique mechanical design for the specific
bracket and Westlock has a large installed base and extensive experience manufacturing and
customizing such brackets. During site survey, Westlock determines the type of brackets
required for the installed valves on the process line.
Most brackets consist of two parts. One part connects the fixed part of the WD to the fixed part
of the valve, and the other connects the rotating part of the WD to the rotating part of the valve
(stem/shaft). Actuators with a NAMUR interface usually do not require the rotating part.
Specific installation instructions are provide in accordance with the provided WD brackets.
