equipment is designed to hold the weight of the valve.
Never place lifting equipment:
•
On the actuator, accessories or gate guards.
•
In the bore of the knife gate valve, since it causes damages to the seat and retainer ring.
Specifically note that threaded hole on top of pneumatic cylinder type, is only for
handling the cylinder itself. See figure 2.

•
Some valve types can be installed as end valves. Contact Stafsjö for specific requirements and
information.
1. A valve with an actuator shall only be operated if:
•
The valve is installed between flanges or between a flange and a protective device.
•
The gate guards are installed on the beams on automatic operated valves.

People's life and health is at stake if this is not observed. Any other action is the responsibility of the
user.
B2
Conditions for installation
Make sure:
• To install valves according "Valve destination", see section A2. Observe valve marking, see section A4.
• That the pipe section is not exposed to vibrations or other mechanical stresses which could deform the valve body
and affect the valve's tightness and/or ability to operate.
• That the valve environment does not imply any risk to the valve, the actuator or the accessories. This also implies
to explosive environment – except for valves classified for ATEX- area
• That flanges, pipeline and the valve are empty, free from solid and sharp particles.
