Scope

This document defines the requirements for design, mechanical integrity, and sizing for all types of electric, pneumatic and hydraulic actuators and related components, including mounting kits, used on valves that conform to API Specification 6D/ISO 14313. Actuators are designed to be assembled fully as a single unit or assembled from modules.

This standard is not applicable to actuators installed on control valves, or valves used for regulation. This standard does not apply to actuators for valves in subsea service. Also excluded are requirements for handheld powered devices, instrument tubing and fittings.
