NOTE: With pressure in the pipeline, installation should be done with the valve in the OPEN
position. With no pressure in the pipeline, installation should be done with the valve in
the CLOSE position.
WARNING: 1. Turn power gas off (bleed down the power storage tank if applicable).
Remove the Old Control Box and Hand Pump
1. Remove the piping to the power port and exhaust port (if existing) of the old control block.
2. Remove the two tube lines (OPEN and CLOSE) running from the control block to the top
of the gas hydraulic tanks.
3. Remove the tube line going from the power storage tank to the control block, if applicable.
4. This should complete the pipe/tube connections freeing the old control box. Remove the
old control box and set the parts aside.

Figure 1: Install New Control
Install the New Control Box Assy.
The new control box mounts to the same holes in the bracket on the Actuator, as the old one,
using 4" long standoffs. Look the new hardware over to enable identification of the parts.
1. Install the four standoffs to the mounting bracket. (See Figure 1)
2. Choose the mounting holes, in the Control, that will offer the best fit, probably the upper
ones, and position the Control on the Standoffs. Fasten with nuts and lock washers.
(See Figure 1 and Figure 3)
3. Assemble the dipsticks to the new Diffuser Assemblies. Apply an appropriate pipe
sealant and install the Diffuser Assemblies in the top ports of the gas hydraulic tanks.

on the back of the Control, to the top
of the Close Tank [2]. (See Figure 2)
12. Run ½” tube line from the Open port,
on the back of the Control, to the top
of the Open Tank [1]. (See Figure 2)
Figure 4: ESD Valve Mounted on Actuator
13. Run ½” tube line from the power port, on the back of the Control, to the Power Storage
Tank [27], if applicable. (See Figure 2)
14. Run a ¼” tube from the pilot port, on the back of the Control, to the connection on the
Reference Tank [20]. (See Figure 2)
