  • Page 6 1.9 Tools and consumables Before starting work ensure that you have suitable tools and/or consumables available. Use only genuine Spirax Sarco replacement parts. 1.10 Protective clothing Consider whether you and/or others in the vicinity require any protective clothing to protect against the hazards of, for example, chemicals, high/low temperature, radiation, noise, falling objects, and dangers to eyes and face.
  • Page 7 Customers and stockists are reminded that under EC Health, Safety and Environment Law, when returning products to Spirax Sarco they must provide information on any hazards and the precautions to be taken due to contamination residues or mechanical damage which may present a health, safety or environmental risk.
  • Page 8 The valve is spring-to-close on power failure and the manual version 'M' can easily be upgraded to an automatic version 'PN/M'. When used with a Spirax Sarco blowdown controller the automatic version provides timed control of blowdown, ensuring that the recommended blowdown occurs with the minimum of heat loss and avoids duplication and omissions.
