Issue
Both valve and actuator in question are obsolete. In this case the valve is still OK, while the actuator is in need of replacement.
Environment
M44
STM-G
M9B/24 8601010000
mounting kit 8600990000
Cause
Replacement of obsolete actuator
Resolution
M9B/24 (8601010000) together with mounting kit 8600990000 will replace the M44PBB when used on STM-G. The only feature missing would be the potentiometer.
