• For non-steam application the globe valve assembly must be mounted so that the
actuator is at least 5° above the horizontal (Figure-11) to ensure that any condensate
that forms will not travel into the mounting bracket or actuator.
• On steam applications, the globe valve assembly must be mounted approximately 45°
from horizontal.
• Temperature Restrictions: For maximum ambient 140 °F (60 °C) the maximum
allowable fluid temperature should not exceed valve rating. See F-27252 Selection
Guide for specific ratings.
