Prerequisites
Open the packing cartridge assembly kit and remove
the installation instructions. These instructions
explain how to remove and reassemble each type of
actuator and list the tools needed.
We recommend rebuilding and repacking the valve
at a bench and not in line.
WARNING:
Isolate the valve so that the medium
(water, steam, etc.) will not leak out of the
valve when the valve body is
disassembled.
WARNING:
Remove and cap the air line or disconnect
the power to the actuator before removing
the actuator from the valve.
