4.3 Changing the type of
mounting
AType3372Actuator(120 cm²)whichhas
already been mounted using a central nut
can also be mounted later to a valve bonnet
suitable for mounting using rods. This re-
quires a plate (60) and two adapter bush-
ings (33.1) with hexagonal section to adapt
it to the diameter of the rods (33).
The conversion in the other direction is also
possible. This requires a crossbeam (59) and
two nuts (54).
4.3.1 Conversion of mounting
using a central nut to
rods
See Table 1 on page 10 for conversion
from Form B to Form C
Fig. 6 and Fig. 7
Î
Undo the two screws on the stem connec-
tor and remove it from the actuator stem
and plug stem.
Î
Undo the central nut (35) and lift the ac-
tuator off the valve bonnet (34).
Î
To undo the two hex nuts (54), the rods
(33) must be held stationary using an
open-end wrench (SW 22). Remove the
crossbeam (59).
Î
Position the plate (60) and screw the two
adapter bushings (33.1) onto the thread
of the rods (33). This adapts the diame-
ter of the rods to the holes in the valve
bonnet (34).
Î
Place the rods (33) on the valve bonnet
(34) and tighten both hex nuts (54) alter-
nately.
Î
Mount the stem connector between the
actuator stem and plug stem, ensuring
the travel linkage runs parallel to the
support element.
4.3.2 Conversion of mounting
using rods to a central
nut

from Form C to Form B
Fig. 6 and Fig. 7
Î
Undo the two screws on the stem connec-
tor and remove it from the actuator stem
and plug stem.
Î
Unscrew the hex nuts (54) from the
adapter bushings (33.1) and lift the actu-
ator of the valve bonnet (34).
Î
Unscrew the adapter bushings (33.1)
with hexagonal part from the rods (33)
and remove the plate (60).
Î
Place the crossbeam (59) on the rods
(33) with the bent sides facing away
from the actuator housing. Fasten with
hex nuts (54).
Î
Place the actuator on the valve bonnet
(34) and fasten with central nut (35).
Î
Mount the stem connector between the
actuator stem and plug stem, ensuring
the travel linkage runs parallel to the
support element.
