In the fail to open actuators the pistons are inserted into the cylinder like the Double Acting version, and due to the spring force the
actuator is Normally Open.
ATTENTION. Nominal torque and torque performances in Spring return Fail to Open version, due to its construction, are different
from the Spring Return Fail to Close standard versions. For sizing and application please refer to ACTUATECH technical department.
10. STORAGE

storage.
If the actuators are to be stored for a long period of time before installation, it is recommended to stroke them periodically to prevent
setting of the seals.
