Issue
Satchwell "AM" series Rotary Actuator requires replacement
Environment
Satchwell “AM” series Rotary Actuator installed on Satchwell MJF, MZ, MZF, VJF, VSF, VZ or VZF series Plug and Seat Valve Body.
N.B.
Where a Satchwell “AM” series Rotary Actuator is installed on a Satchwell VV Butterfly Valve Body then NO simple Actuator replacement is available.
In addition to replacing the AMS Actuator it will also be necessary to replace the VV Butterfly Valve Body.
The replacement Actuator is S-E type MF type.
Please check the latest catalog for current equipment.
The Satchwell VV Butterfly Valve Body should be replaced by a S-E Butterfly Valve Body selected from the VF208W series of Butterfly Valve Bodies.
It should be noted however that significant pipe work modifications will also be necessary in order to accommodate any selected VF208W series Butterfly Valve Body due to the differing construction of the VF208W Butterfly Valve Body.
Please check the latest catalog for current equipment.
Cause
