Straight-through Valves
Only three-way MXG461...U valves are supplied. They may be used as straight-through
normally closed valves by closing off port "B":
Port "B" can be sealed with the
accessories supplied (blanking disk,
gasket, and the nut).
No blanking flange is available for
MXF461.65-50U.

Straight-through Applications.
Installation
MXG461...U screwed valves are flat-faced to facilitate sealing with the gaskets
supplied.
Do not use hemp, tape or thread-sealing compound.
Do not insulate the actuator.
For notes on electrical installation, see Terminal Layout.
Maintenance
The valves and actuators require no maintenance or service. The valve stem is sealed
with a maintenance-free O-ring gland.
Should the valve electronics prove faulty, the electronics module should be exchanged
for a replacement part, part number ASE1 (1/2-inch to 1-1/4 inches) or ASE2
(1-1/2 inches to 2-1/2 inches). Mounting instructions are enclosed (Ref. 35678).
After replacing the electronics module, calibration must be triggered to optimally match
the electronics to the valve (see Calibration).
WARNING:
Under operating conditions within the limits defined by the application
data, the actuator will become hot, but this does not represent a fire or
burn risk. Always maintain the minimum clearance specified (see
Dimensions).
