SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS


The electric power supply must be switched-off before any intervention on the electric actuator (i.e. prior de-
mounting its cover or manipulating the manual override knob). The operator must also be sure that no explosive
atmosphere is present around the actuator before any maintenance operation.

Heat flow from the valve and pipes: it is the responsibility of the user to consider the influence of radiated heat on
the final installation because the electrical actuator is certified for a specific ambient temperature range.
 Any intervention must only be carried out by a qualified electrician or other person instructed in accordance with the reg-
ulations of electric engineering, safety, and all other applicable directives.
 Strictly observe the wiring and set-up instructions as described in the manual: otherwise, the proper working of the actu-
ator can not be guaranteed anymore. Verify that the indications given on the identification label of the actuator fully corre-
spond to the characteristics of the electric supply.
