  • Page 16 PILOT VALVE TESTING AND REPAIR CAUTION Close all steam lines that could pressurize any of the valve chambers before disassembling the system. Use caution when opening any section or valve chamber as there may be hot condensate trapped inside. Failure to do so may result in burns.
  • Page 17 SPRING PILOT REPAIR Disassembly 1. Isolate the main valve from the steam line. Make sure the internal pressure is 0 psig (0 bar) and allow the valve to cool to prevent injury. 2. Disconnect the copper tubing lines and feedback line. Disconnect the pipe union and remove the pilots from the main valve.
