  • Page 9: Safety Warnings

    Given the large number of conditions and circumstances that may arise while working on the products and the consequent risks deriving from the way this is done, CARRARO is not able to prevent all risks of injury to people and damage to property and can only help by asking you to take the utmost care and giving you the following safety suggestions.
  • Page 10: Safety Precautions

    ° Inspect/service the safety valve at least once a year. ° Please consult CARRARO before working on valve parts. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it...

    14 - Popping pressure – This is value of increasing static inlet pressure at which the disc opens at a much higher speed than at higher or lower pressures. Popping only occurs in safety valves applied to compressible fluids. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it Rev.5 30/06/03...
  • Page 12 23 - Simmer – This is the audible or visible leak of fluid between the seat and the disc at an inlet static pressure which is lower than popping pressure and with an non-measurable rate of flow.

  • Page 28 If the indentations in the seat or the disc are such as to require lapping deeper than 0.25 mm, return the valve to Carraro for repairs unless you have a workshop fitted out for this kind of work. Bear in mind that when turning, all the profiles must be perfectly reproduced, otherwise the safety valve will not work correctly.

  • Page 32: Repairs

    ATTENTION! The external adjustment devices of all safety valves are sealed. Immediately prior to delivery, the valves are sealed by CARRARO or the control body. These seals must be applied so that the valves cannot be adjusted without breaking them. The unauthorised breakage of seals will make the guarantee null and void.
