Maintenance Warning If the fluid or reaction product (deposit) may cause the valve to become unsafe, the valve should be disassembled, cleaned and re-assembled by an operator who has sufficient knowledge and experience (e.g. a specialist). Caution 1. When removing deposits from the valve, take care not to damage any part of it. 2.
2. Product Specific Precautions 2 Common Precautions 2 Be sure to read before handling Maintenance Parts SMC specified parts should be used for service. Refer to the construction drawing. 1. Replace the bonnet assembly when changing the sealant material. Due to the different materials used, changing only the seal may prove inadequate.
