Notes
Mounting
Orientation
● The specified direction of flow must be observed in all cases (refer to Engineering [➙ 5]).
● The mounting instructions are enclosed with the packaging.
● The valve and actuator are easily assembled directly on site. There is no need for special
tools or calibration.
AL50 supporting ring
For VVI46.25/3, the AL50 supporting ring must be put into position before mounting the
actuator SUE21 onto the valve.
VVI46.15/3 and VVI46.20/3 do not require an AL50, as the actuators can be installed on
valve directly.
For VVI46.25/3 only
Commissioning

Engineering
Refer to Mounting [➙ 5] and Commissioning [➙ 5] notes.
