Specific actuator and equipment data. See Table A.1, Actuator Data Form, appendix A. a. Special auxiliari

Fail-safe operation using a spring-return option allows a valve/ actuator assembly to “fail” to a specified position, usually fully closed or fully open, on loss

20、 of driver medium pressure. For rotary valves, the rotation of the spring stroke must be specified in the purchase documents. ii. Spring-return actuators and cylinders have a “starting torque” and “ending torque.” Starting torque refers to the torque output of the actuator or cylinder at the beginni

21、ng of the air stroke or spring stroke, as specified in the manufacturers literature. Ending torque refers to the torque output of the actuator or cylinder at the end of the air stroke or spring stroke, as specified in the manufacturers literature. Some actuators and cylinders have different starting

22、 torques and ending torques for the air and spring strokes. iii. Declutchable manual gear override. When specified by the pur- chaser, a declutchable manual gear override shall be provided. The user may consider a declutchable manual gear override with a handwheel when there may be the need of manua

23、lly operating a valve equipped with a hydraulic or pneumatic actuator, for example, in the event of a power outage. For rotary valves, it is good practice to mount the manual gear override between the hydraulic or pneumatic actuator and the valve to provide true stand-alone capability in the event o

24、f actuator failure or servicing. Handwheel rim pull force is determined by the effort required on the handwheel to operate the valve or gate closure member. Where the handwheel is a spoke design rather than a rim design, handwheel input force should be measured at 2 in. from the far end of the spokes. While this standard limits handwheel rim pull (Sec. 4.4.7 .16 and Copyright 2016 American Water Works Association. All Rights Reserved.
