9.2 Installing/removing the connection adapters

The connection adapters are screwed onto the valve block via
a flange connection and a separate gasket. The component
has a special connection geometry, comprising a sealing sur-
face and mounting centre, based on DIN 11864. The gasket is
compressed by screwing on the connection up to the mech-
anical stop (tightening torque: 10 Nm).
Thanks to interchangeable connection adapters, the product
is maintenance friendly and can be customized.
