• The blow-off pressure of the safety valves must be checked at regular inter- vals. The country-specific statutory stipulations apply to the test intervals. BAUER KOMPRESSOREN however recommends an annual check of the safety valves. • If a check of the response pressure is impossible for technical reasons, the safety valves will need to be replaced.
Chapter 9.9.2, Page 117. 9.9.2 Checking the blow-off pressure BAUER KOMPRESSOREN recommends that the intermediate pressure safety valves be replaced very carefully. A the blow-off pressure can be tested only with considerable expenditure. 1. The final pressure switch is, if available, bypassed.
Pressure gauges must be checked in accordance with the maintenance schedule. Using a special testing pressure gauge is recommended for checking the pressure gauges, see BAUER KOMPRESSOREN catalogue of high-pressure accessories. Allowances should be made for minor deviations during operation. If the pressure gauge shows large inaccuracies, however, it will need to be replaced.
Only competent personnel may replace the valves of the compressor. For more in- formation, contact the BAUER customer service department, see Chapter 1.1.1 Contact data BAUER KOMPRESSOREN, Page NOTICE Material damage due to dissimilar suction and pressure valves!
