Elkhart Brass Actuator Clip (2891)

Description

The Elkhart Brass Actuator Clip is a small but essential component designed specifically for the Elkhart Brass model 2891 valve, which is commonly used in firefighting and fire protection systems. The actuator clip plays a crucial role in the valve’s operation by securing the actuator in place, ensuring proper functioning and safety of the valve.

The actuator clip is responsible for maintaining the correct alignment and position of the actuator, which is the part of the valve that controls the opening and closing of the flow path. In case of damage or wear, it’s important to replace the actuator clip with the appropriate component specified by the manufacturer to ensure the valve operates correctly and safely.

When repairing or maintaining firefighting equipment, always follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and instructions to ensure proper operation and safety. Using the correct replacement parts, like the Elkhart Brass Actuator Clip for 2891, guarantees compatibility and optimal performance.

General guidance for replacing the actuator clip on a valve:

1. Turn off the water supply and relieve any pressure within the system connected to the valve.
2. Remove the valve from the pipeline or system, if necessary, to access the actuator and actuator clip.
3. Disassemble the valve by removing any fasteners, screws, or bolts holding the valve components together. Keep track of the parts and their positions for easier reassembly.
4. Locate the actuator clip, which is typically found securing the actuator to the valve body or stem. Carefully remove the damaged or worn actuator clip.
5. Replace the old actuator clip with the new Elkhart Brass Actuator Clip for the 2891 valve.
6. Reinstall the valve into the pipeline or system, ensuring proper alignment and connection.
7. Turn on the water supply and test the valve for proper operation and any leaks. Verify that the actuator clip replacement has resolved any issues with the valve.
