Inspection

Requirements

General Installation

Inspect package for damage. If damaged, notify carrier immediately. If undamaged, open
the package and inspect for obvious damage. Return damaged products.

• Training: Installer must be a qualied, experienced technician.

• Tools (not provided):

– Measuring scale graduated in 1/16””increments
– Two 5/16” open-end wrenches or TOOL-20-1 for jam nuts
– 3/4 to 2” spanner wrench for linkage adapter
– 1-3/8” open-end wrench for valve adapter
– 1-5/8” open-end wrench for valve mounting nut
– Vise grip or pliers
– Appropriate power supply (see the applicable actuator General Instructions sheet

for power requirements)

Warning: Electrical shock hazard! Contact with live circuits can result in severe injury or
death.

• Disconnect the power supply (line power) at the breaker or fuse before and during

installation of an actuator to prevent electric shock and equipment damage.

• Make all connections in accordance with the wiring diagram and in accordance with

national and local electrical codes. Use copper conductors only.

Failure to observe these warnings can result in severe injury or death and can damage the
equipment.

The AV-608 kit contains parts for the AV-607 linkage and Schneider Electric jackscrew style
actuators. Save the unused parts and instructions for other applications.

Allow at least 5” (127 mm) above the actuator or actuator/linkage assembly for removal and
reattachment to the installed valve.

Valve Styles

Identify the valve body and follow the specic instructions on the following pages.

• Style A valve bodies were discontinued in August, 1997

• Some style B valve bodies were discontinued in 1994 (date code 9404)
