Exception: DN 65 PN 16 When using steel flanges to DIN EN 1092-1 in conjunction with cast iron valves with flanges machined to DIN EN 1092-2, ensure that for nominal size DN 65 classed PN 16 the mating flanges are fitted offset by 22.5°. BOA-Control PIC 21 of 36...
1. Fit the manual gearbox with the screws supplied, tightening the screws crosswise. Mounting the actuator Mount the actuator as described in the actuator’s operating manual. The spacer required for the individual nominal sizes is included in the scope of supply. BOA-Control PIC 22 of 36...
15 Nm. The piping can now be flushed. After flushing the piping repeat steps 1 to 3. 5. Fit throttling orifice (A) again. 6. Set the presetting for the required volume flow rate. BOA-Control PIC 23 of 36...
The flow rate can be measured at the two pressure measurement connection branches of the valve in conjunction with a differential pressure gauge. For measuring the volume flow rate, a measuring kit can be hired on request. BOA-Control PIC 24 of 36...
Fig. 9: Venting the valve 1. Vent the valve by opening ball valve 01-39 carefully until a steady flow of fluid handled escapes. Collect the fluid handled by suitable means. 2. Fully close ball valve 01-39 again. BOA-Control PIC 25 of 36...
Turn the indication until the arrow (P) points at the required percentage on the disc (S). For presettings in percent refer to (ð Table 13) . 3. Activate the locking device by turning the knurled thumb screw (F). Istruzioni_EKOFLUX.PI_Istruzione comando manuale (r iduttore) modif. 22/01/2019 BOA-Control PIC 26 of 36...
During prolonged shutdown periods, ensure that the following conditions are met: 1. Drain fluids which change their physical condition due to changes in concentration, polymerisation, crystallisation, solidification, etc. from the piping. 2. If required, flush the piping with the valves fully opened. BOA-Control PIC 29 of 36...
The user is responsible for defining appropriate intervals for checks and maintenance, depending on the application of the valve. NOTE All maintenance, service and installation work can be carried out by KSB Service or authorised workshops. Find your contact on the Internet at "www.ksb.com/ contact".
