INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL
Before installation these instructions must be fully read and understood
Intended valve use
The valve is intended to be used only in
applications within the pressure/temperature
limits indicated in the P/T diagram of the
product manual.
When the valve is used in an end-of-line function,
PED Cat-I applications are allowed only.
For other categories, please contact the factory.
1 STORAGE AND HANDLING
1.1 Storage
When valves are to be stored for some time
(2 months or more) before being fitted, storage
should be in the original delivery crates or cases.
1.1.1 Storage conditions
The valves should be stored off the ground in a
clean, dry indoor area.
Protect the valve from temperature and
humidity extremes, and exposure to excessive
dust, moisture, vibration, deformations,
sunlight and ozone.

Recommendations
1. Temperature: storage temperature below
25°C (77°F), above 0°C (32°F) preferable
below 15°C (59°F)
2. Humidity: storage conditions should be such
that condensation does not occur. Store in
a dry environment. Maximum 50% relative
humidity.
3. Light: valve elastomers should be protected
from light, in particular direct sunlight or
strong artificial light with high ultra violet.
4. Ozone: storage rooms should not
contain any equipment generating ozone.
E.g. lamps, electric motors.
IMPORTANT
Before valves are installed or used the following
actions are recommended.
1. Valves/parts have to be inspected and
thoroughly cleaned if required.
2. Elastomer parts need to be greased with
silicone grease if not present anymore.
3. All surfaces in contact with seats have to be
thoroughly cleaned and greased with silicone
grease if stored for more than 5 months.
1.2 Handling
To prevent damage during handling, the valves
should be lifted by hand or using appropriate
lifting equipment. Do not fasten lifting devices
around the valve operating shaft, actuator
or through the valve waterway. The valve
should be lifted with chains or slings which
are fastened to rods or bolts which go through
the bolt holes in the body flanges. The valves
should be protected from external events e.g.
bumps, hitting and vibration during transport.
Any flange protection caps need to be removed
before the valve is mounted in the pipeline.
Lift the valve with great care from the transport
package (crate, pallet). While handling or
installing the valve, ensure that no damage
occurs to the valve, the pneumatic/electrical/-
hydraulic actuator or other instrumentation.
2 SPARE PARTS
Only original Keystone spare parts are
allowed to be used. Safe operation cannot be
guaranteed if third party spare parts are used.
