- 1. TAC actuator and adapter dimensions may need to be checked to assure proper clearances are maintained.
- 2. The replacement actuator and adapter listed represent what TAC believes are an equivalent. Actuators do not necessarily have ...
- 3. TAC assumes no responsibility for guaranteeing the acceptability of any suggested replacements. The suggestions contained herein should only be used as a guide.
- 4. Consult the valve manufacturer if the system pressures or temperatures are being changed to assure proper performance.
- 5. Pneumatic actuator close-offs are based on 20 psig to the actuator diaphragm
- 6. All specified close-offs are nominal, and can vary based on the age of the valve, tightness of the stem packing, and variations in stem drag

AV-8xx Adapter Kit Selection Procedure
Note: Be sure to consult "AV-800 Series Adapter Installation Considerations" on page 4 before proceeding.
1. Determine the manufacturer, part number, size, and stroke of the competitive valve body.
2. Determine the type of actuator required (e.g. pneumatic, electric two-position, electric floating, electric
proportional), the required supply voltage (if electric), and the desired input control signal to the actuator. Also
note any physical size and close-off pressure constraints when selecting an actuator/linkage.
3. Consult the appropriate section of this selection guide to determine the required AV-8xx kit number, compatible
TAC actuator part number, and TAC actuator linkage (if needed).
Caution: Only the TAC actuators listed in this selection guide may be used.
