Expected lifespan and intended disposal
ARIS actuators have an expected lifespan of several years, depending on their utilization and application. No longer usable actua-
tors must not be dismantled as a whole, but separately recycled in parts divided by their materials. Non-recyclable components
must be disposed according to national disposal regulations.

Actuator setup for utilization
4.1
Transport, (temporary) storage and downtimes
Use the factory packaging for transport to the installation point.
Replace a damaged original packaging by a new solid packaging.
•
Actuators with attached valves: Attach lifting gear only on the valve and NEVER on the actuator;
•
Do not use ARIS actuators as a climbing or support aid;
•
ARIS actuators must not operate in unsecured lifting operations without additional applications
Damage by wrong storage
•
Store in well-ventilated rooms;
•
Protection against possible ground humidity (shelf storage).
•
Add moisture-absorbing agents to the actuator during longer periods of storage.
•
Protect the actuators from dirt and dust.
•
Take measures for prevention of condensation (e.g. at temperature fluctuations).
4.2
Packaging
ARIS actuators are protected by special cardboard packaging at delivery.
4.3
Safe disposal of packaging
Additionally necessary packaging is made by easily separable packaging materials and can be recycled individually:
•
Wood
•
Cardboard
•
Paper
•
Plastics
4.4
Installation and mounting
•
Inspect the actuator for damages prior to installation;
•
the screw-in depth of connecting thread holes must not exceed 9 mm;
•
check leak tightness of cable glands and blank plugs prior to initial operation;
•
tighten the cover screws evenly (max. 1.2 Nm);
•
do not operate before limit switches have been adjusted;
•
protect the actuator against climatic influences (e.g. by a protective cover);
•
do not expose the actuator to hard shocks (e.g. by dropping);
