Electric voltage!
There is danger to life when work-
ing on electrical components.
• The electrical connections may be
performed only by qualified electri-
cians.
• When working on the components,
have the voltage released by a qual-
ified electrician and secured against
being switched on again.
• Let a qualified electrician check that
no current is present.
DANGER
Corrosive substances!
Depending on the type of medi-
um, there may be danger to life
when in contact with the medium.
• Check the properties of the medium.
• Protect yourself and your environment
from harmful or toxic substances.
• Follow the safety instructions in the
manufacturer's safety data sheets.
• Make sure that no medium can get
into the pipeline, valves during assem-
bly work.

with the valves and installing or repair-
ing the valves have received appropri-
ate training.
WARNING
Very cold and hot surfaces!
The body of the valve can be-
come very cold or very hot dur-
ing operation.
• Wear protective gloves
and protective clothing to protect
against frostbite or burns.
• Make sure that personnel working
with the valves and installing or repair-
ing the valves have received appropri-
ate training.
PMK2/EMK2-IM-DE-B-EN-01-23 Rev.0 11

WARNING
Flying parts!
Splashing medium!
There is a risk of injury when the valve is
removed under pressure or with present
medium. The disassembly or removal of a
pressurised valve causes an uncontrolled
pressure drop.
• Do not disassemble or remove the
valve from the pipeline as long as the
valve is pressurized.
• Always isolate the respective valve in
the piping system.
• Depressurise the valve and remove
the medium before working on the
valve and the rotary actuator.
WARNING
Ejected parts!
(only for pneumatic actuator)
When adjusting the rotary actuators and
when the rotary actuator is opened un-
der pressure, there is a risk of parts being
ejected!
• Always disconnect the compressed
air supply before maintenance, disas-
sembly and repair!
• Never set the mechanical end posi-
tions on the actuator as long as there
is pressure on connection 2 or 4.
• Never dismount the threaded pins of
the vacotrol interface under pressure
(only for actubar).
• Make sure the pinion of the rotary ac-
tuator is moving in the correct direc-
tion.
WARNING
Danger of crushing hands
and other body parts!
There is a risk of injury during as-
sembly/disassembly by movements of the
ball. The shut-off body (e.g. ball or disc) of
the valve works as a separating element.
It makes no difference whether a rotary
actuator is mounted or not. The position
of the ball may change during transport or
handling of the valve.
• Keep hands and fingers away when
power is connected.
• Always disconnect the power supply
from the rotary actuator before carry-
ing out maintenance and repair work
on the valve and when installing and
removing the ball valve from the pipe-
line.
• Pay attention to movements of the
ball.
• Keep hands, other body parts, tools
and other objects out of the swivel
range of the ball. Do not leave any for-
eign objects inside the pipeline.
• Perform works carefully when assem-
bling, disassembling and sampling.
12 PMK2/EMK2-IM-DE-B-EN-01-23 Rev.0

WARNING
Uncontrolled start-ups!
(only for pneumatic actuator)
There is a risk of injury if pneumatic rotary
actuators create a very high torque during
actuation or by spring force.
• Secure the rotary actuator against any
unintentional start-up or unexpected
spinning.
• Work on the pneumatic rotary actua-
tors in a prudent way.
• In case of single-acting rotary actua-
tors (type GS), make sure that the ro-
tary actuator is in the home position
(relaxed springs) when disassembling.
CAUTION
Hand injuries!
When mounting the rotary actuator on
the valve spindle, the rotary actuator is
pushed to the connection point/flange of
the valve.
When disassembling the rotary actuator
or removing the rotary actuator from the
valve spindle, the parts can slip down.
There is danger of crushing the hands!
• Carefully pull off the rotary actuator.
• Keep fingers and hands away from
the connection point.
NOTE
Material damage to valve spindle!
Material damage can occur if you use
built-on rotary actuators as levers.
• Do not use built-on actuators as le-
vers as they could damage the actua-
tor and the valve.
PMK2/EMK2-IM-DE-B-EN-01-23 Rev.0 13

2.7.2 Dangers during functional
checks, commissioning and
operation
DANGER
Bursting parts!
Escaping media!
There is danger to life if the maximum per-
missible pressure and temperature ranges
of the valve are insufficient for the operat-
ing conditions of the system. There is a
risk of injury and the risk of material dam-
age by wrongly selected materials.
In addition, there is a risk of damage to
the piping system.
• Only use the valves that are designed
for the operating conditions.
• Make sure that the selected materi-
als of the parts of the valve coming in
contact with the medium are suitable
for the media used.
DANGER
Escaping medium!
There is a risk of death
from escaping medium
as a result of leaks (scalding,
hazardous substances).
• Protect yourself from thermal or
chemical burns.
• Leave the danger area in case of leak-
age and keep third persons out of the
danger zone. Use appropriate barriers
or name supervisors.
WARNING
Danger of being pulled in,
danger of crushing and
locking!
Danger due to moving parts of the ma-
chine/valve which can be accessed
through assembly, disassembly, remov-
able covers at openings for functional
checks, sampling, etc. and through auto-
matically operated valves.
• Keep hands and fingers away when
compressed air or power is connect-
ed.
• Please note that single-acting rotary
actuators can move the valve to the
"open" or "closed" position when
closing or disconnecting the com-
pressed air supply (only for pneumatic
actuator).
• Perform works carefully when com-
missioning, making functional checks
and sampling.
WARNING
Risk of burns!
