6.4 Emergency operation

6.4.1 Manually operating the 185-1 change-over device with a
damaged servomotor
WARNING
Toxic material
Death or serious personal injury
Make sure that the manual ball valve (2) and the ball
valve of the servomotor are not closed simultaneously,
because liquid chlorine can be trapped in the lines
between both valves. If the temperature rises, chlorine
gas could escape.
In this example, the servomotor (5) is damaged.
1. Unscrew the damaged servomotor (5) from the 185-1 change-
over device.
If the ball valve of the servomotor (5) is closed, open it by
turning the coupling in flow direction "open". Turn it by 90° using
pliers.
2. Set the operation mode switch at the control cabinet to "man".
3. Set the intact servomotor (6) to "open".
4. Change over between the container batteries by manually
opening and closing the manual ball valves (2).

6.4.2 Manually operating the 185-2 change-over device with a
damaged servomotor
WARNING
Toxic material
Death or serious personal injury
Make sure that the manual ball valve (2), the ball valve
of the outlet line (4) and the ball valve of the
servomotor are not closed simultaneously, because
liquid chlorine can be trapped in the lines between
both valves. If the temperature rises, chlorine gas
could escape.
In this example, the servomotor (5) is damaged.
1. Check if the ball valve of the damaged servomotor (5) is open or
closed.
• If the ball valve of the damaged servomotor is closed, the
manual ball valve (2) must be open.
• If the ball valve of the damaged servomotor is open, the
manual ball valve (2) must be closed.
2. Set the servomotor (6) to the same position as servomotor (5).
a. Set the operation mode switch at the control cabinet to
"man".
b. Set the intact servomotor (6) to "closed" or "open".
c. Open or close the respective manual ball valve (2).
3. Change over between the container batteries by manually
opening and closing the manual ball valves (3).

7. Fault finding

7.1 Device does not change over

Cause
No control voltage is present, or
the connection to control
cabinet is interrupted.
The ball valves are closed.
The contact manometer is
defective.
Operation mode switch (S3) is
set to "man".
The servomotor is defective.
The valve is defective.
The valve packings are
tightened too much.

7.2 Lamp does not light up

Cause
The lamp is defective.
7.3 A fault is signalled at the potential-free output
Cause
Both container batteries are
empty.
The line coming from the spare
container battery is blocked.
The ball valves are closed.

7.4 Notes for other faults

If the servomotor of the valve to be closed blocks, the
failure output contact opens after 40 seconds due to low
pressure.
If the servomotor of the valve to be opened blocks and the
valve is still closed, the failure output contact opens after
40 seconds due to low pressure.
If the servomotor of the valve to be opened blocks when
halfway opened and gas pressure is already present, the
output contact of the respective valve remains opened.
Both signal lamps of the respective valve do not light up at
the control cabinet, because signal lamps only light up
when the end positions of the valves are reached.
