12.2 BV breather valve 12.2.1 Use • On SAV control devices • On regulators (pilots) • With low-dynamic regulation sections (one full stroke) • On the SRV (SL10) 12.2.2 Application / Function The breather valve is used as replacement for the costly and time-consuming laying of breather lines and for securing the installation room against inadmissible gas escape from diaphragm comparator compartments of gas pressure regulators and safety shut-off valves.
12.3 RSD restrictor valve 12.3.1 Use • For installation in the measurement line of the gas pressure regulator 12.3.2 Application / Function • For finer adjustment of the control behaviour of the regulator • For vibration-free outlet pressure regulation The RSD is a restrictor valve that affects the volumetric flow in the measurement line from outside by means of a continuously adjustable narrowing of the cross-section.
• On SAV control devices 12.4.2 Application / Function The signal transmitter, in conjunction with products from Medenus GmbH, is used for monitoring the position (position closed or open) of the safety shut-off valve via remote display. A built-in neodymium magnet in the pull knob of the SSV and a set switching distance to the Reed contact cause a sensor to query the position of the safety shut-off valve and to transmit a signal via remote display.
Page 38
12.4.4 Mounting • Replace the pull knob of the SSV spindle with the pull knob with the neodymium magnet. • With the SSV open, slide the signal transmitter into the groove provided for this purpose at the SSV cap. (Until the operational status indicator is lit) • Finally fasten the signal transmitter to the desired position by tightening* the fastening screw M2.5 x 4 using a precision screwdriver.
Page 39
Safety instructions Must be read prior to using the neodymium magnet! Important safety instructions for general and responsible handling of the neodymium magnet Please pass on these instructions to all employees, customers and other people who are handling our products or parts derived from them.
12.5.1 Use • On SAV control devices 12.5.2 Application / Function The inductive transmitter, in conjunction with products from Medenus GmbH, is used for monitoring the position (position closed or open) of the safety shut-off valve via remote display. A sensor queries the position of the safety shut-off valve and a signal is transmitted via remote display. If the SSV drops into the closed position, the switching distance will be exceeded and the sensor will lose the signal.

2/BU M12x1 12.5.5 Mounting • Unscrew the SSV cap of your Medenus gas pressure regulator (-) and replace it with the SSV cap with M12 threaded hole for the inductive transmitter and the pull knob, if necessary. (During mounting, make sure that the O-ring has been...
12.6. SSV remote release 12.6.1 Use • On SAV control devices 12.6.2 Application / Function The direct-acting solenoid valve is used as electromagnetic remote release for closing the safety shut-off valve. Only for SSV control devices of functional class A. Upon being energized or in case of power failure, the valve closes the impulse line, resulting in the pressure falling below the response pressure to be monitored.
12.7 Fine filter FF 12.7.1 Use • for control device R70 12.7.2 Application / Function Fine filter FF have the task to separate gas impurities such as dust, rust and other solids in gas pipes to specified location. They are used in the inlet pressure line between actuator RSP and controller R70. Fine filters FF can be used for gases according to DVGW - worksheet G 260 / G 262 and neutral non-aggressive gases.
