MOUNTING KITS
Mounting kits play a major role in the proper functioning of an automated unit. A rigid bracket
must connect the actuator to the valve so they become a single unit with zero movement
between the three components. The coupler is an element that transfers the torque from the
actuator to the valve shaft. It must fit tightly and accurately so as to minimize hysteresis and
to turn the valve shaft on its center axis without side loading. The mounting kit is designed for
safe installation and operation of the complete unit, having rigid construction and no sharp
corners. This well-engineered product provides a wide range of movement for the spanner,
allowing for easy installation and maintenance, as well as maximum worker safety. Whether
pairing Habonim valves with the Habonim CompAct™ actuators, customizing a mounting kit to
pair the Habonim CompAct™ actuator with other valve brands or mounting Habonim valves on
a wide variety of other actuator brands; Habonim is a one stop shop, offering valve automation
linkage hardware for a wide range of applications.
Cast Brackets
Habonim’s rigid cast bracket, has a unique shape and precise construction with dual ISO
5211 standard hole patterns on both the top and bottom. The cast bracket is designed for
installation on all Habonim valves, and the CompAct™ pneumatic actuator which conform
to ISO 5211 standard. An aesthetic shape and rounded corners, allow clear visibility of the
valve stem and coupler from all directions. This well-engineered product provides a wide
range of movement for the spanner, allowing for easy installation and maintenance, as well
as maximum worker safety. The cast bracket is made from cast grade CF8 (AISI304) stainless
steel for better corrosion resistance. Each pad is marked with the relevant ISO "F" number for
clear identification. The coupler is made from stainless steel 303 as standard, and the fasteners
are from stainless steel 304. Other materials are available upon special request.

'Closed box' Mounting Kit
The 'closed box' mounting kit design is used mainly for Non-ISO 5211 compliant top pads,
platforms larger than ISO 5211 F14 PCD, or for unique applications which are not covered by
the cast bracket. A 'closed box' bracket is comprised of a top and bottom element connected
by a precisely welded tongue and groove construction. This configuration delivers the load
from the actuator to the valve mainly through this latch mechanism and less is applied
through the welding seam. The Closed box bracket is made from stainless steel sheet AISI 304,
however, for off-shore applications, desalination plants and applications exposed to corrosive
environments stainless steel 316/316L is used. An epoxy painted carbon steel bracket is used
to connect large scotch-yoke actuators to large high pressure valves or trunnion mounted
valves. As standard the coupler is made from stainless steel 303, and the fasteners are made
from stainless steel 304. Other materials are also available upon special request.

Control Zero Backlash Mounting Kit
Habonim’s Zero Backlash Mounting Kit design is based on the inherent flexibility of stainless
steel. Two grooves allow the Mounting Kit to clamp the valve stem on one side, while locking
the actuator gear in place on the other side. The Mounting Kit ensures repeatability, zero
backlash, and virtually no hysteresis for the complete control unit.
