Elk WSV2 question

When the WSV2 closes "electrically", i.e., not manually, does the manual valve handle move? If so, what is the distance between the center line of the valve and the furthest point on the closed handle? My guess is that Elk didn't take this into account when determining the dimensions, and I'm trying to see how much room is necessary.
 
If the handle doesn't close when the valve is closed electrically, the dimension doesn't matter because any time the valve will be closed manually, an access door will be open and the handle will have plenty of room to operate.It's when the access door is closed and the valve closes electrically that I'm concerned about whether or not it will have enough clearance.
 
Thanks,

The handle moves when the valve is activated. I'll go to the pump house tomorrow and measure the handle length. I'm "in for the night"  now.
 
the handle moves when opened/closed eletronically and the handle protruds about 1.375" when closed
it moves quite fast so I eyeballed that 1.5" clearance will be sufficient.
 
Power supply is a transformer (sub $20 part) and the cost of this is actually more than the Elk unit if you know where to look. Just sayin' ;)
