This manual provides installation, operation, and maintenance instructions for the Flowserve Automax LV1 lockout and vent valve used with SuperNova SNA…
The Automax LV1 is a lockout and vent valve designed for the SuperNova SNA series actuator. It shuts off the air supply and vents the actuator to allow for manual operation, purging air from one side of the pistons to the other to prevent corrosive atmospheres from entering. The unit mounts directly to the NAMUR air porting, eliminating the need for tubing and fittings, and can be combined with other Automax NAMUR accessories like flow controls and solenoid valves.
The LV1 lockout and vent valve shuts off the air supply and vents the actuator to allow for manual operation.
To engage the worm gear, momentarily lift the lock pin and rotate the declutch bar clockwise 180° until the lock pin drops down.
To reconnect the air supply lines, push in the knob on the LV1.
