1. Safety instructions
1.1 Range of application
AUMA actuators are designed for the operation of industrial valves, e.g.
globe valves, gate valves, butterfly valves and ball valves.
For other applications, please consult us. The manufacturer is not liable for any
possible damage resulting from use in other than the designated applications.
Such risk lies entirely with the user.
Observance of these operation instructions is considered as part of the con-
trols’/ actuator’s designated use.
1.2 Electrical connection
During electrical operation, certain parts inevitably carry lethal voltages. Work
on the electrical system or equipment must only be carried out by a skilled elec-
trician themselves or by specially instructed personnel under the control and
supervision of such an electrician and in accordance with the applicable electri-
cal engineering rules.
1.3 Maintenance
The maintenance instructions (refer to page 56) must be observed, otherwise a
safe operation of the actuator is no longer guaranteed.
1.4 Warnings and notes
Failure to observe the warnings and notes may lead to serious injuries or dam-
age. Qualified personnel must be thoroughly familiar with all warnings and notes
in these operation instructions.
Correct transport, proper storage, mounting and installation, as well as careful
commissioning are essential to ensure a trouble-free and safe operation.
During operation, the multi-turn actuator warms up and surface temperatures
> 140 °F may occur. Check the surface temperature prior to contact in order to
avoid burns.
The following references draw special attention to safety-relevant procedures in
these operation instructions. Each is marked by the appropriate pictograph.
This pictograph means: Note!
“Note” marks activities or procedures which have major influence on the correct
operation. Non-observance of these notes may lead to consequential damage.
This pictograph means: Electrostatically endangered parts!
If this pictograph is attached to a printed circuit board, it contains parts which
may be damaged or destroyed by electrostatic discharges. If the boards need to
be touched during setting, measurement, or for exchange, it must be assured
that immediately before a discharge through contact with a grounded metallic
surface (e.g. the housing) has taken place.
This pictograph means: Warning!
“Warning” marks activities or procedures which, if not carried out correctly, can
affect the safety of persons or material.
