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.
° 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...

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. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it...
ATTENTION! When handling the valve, make sure the work area is kept clear in order to prevent injury to people and damage to property IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it Rev.5 30/06/03 VALVOLE E STRUMENTAZIONE TEL.(02) 269912.1 - FAX.(02) 2692.2452...

During lifting to the installation point, take care not to knock the valve against the metal structure or other objects. ATTENTION! If the valve is knocked violently, have it checked by CARRARO before installing it. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it...
CS types 50 - 51 80 - 91 LIMITS TO USE 9.1 The Carraro CS 50-51 80-91 safety valves were not designed for use with cyclical loads. 9.2 Valves in non-alloy or low-alloy steel, for service in excess of 371 °C, and valves in alloy steel for service in excess of 510 °C have been used without faults at temperature gradients of up to 150°C/h;...

These are capable of destroying the seats the first time the valves open. The system must therefore be carefully cleaned before starting to install safety valves. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it Rev.5 30/06/03...

Safer results are obtained if hoses are installed to allow movements by bending rather than by stretching or axial compression.

This pipe must also be perfectly flexible so as not to apply force on the valve under any operating conditions. Before completing installation, make sure nothing obstructs the movement of the lifting lever. Flanged valves can be installed without the need for insulation.

! WARNING Block the valve with the stop screw when adjusting the rings in order to eliminate serious risks of injury or death IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it Rev.5 30/06/03 VALVOLE E STRUMENTAZIONE TEL.(02) 269912.1 - FAX.(02) 2692.2452...
Check the adjustment in operating conditions. 15.6 – Calibrating the CS91 valves without lifting lever (Fig.4). Remove the seal, if present. Remove the cap (16), adjust and check as indicated above. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it Rev.5 30/06/03 VALVOLE E STRUMENTAZIONE TEL.(02) 269912.1 - FAX.(02) 2692.2452...
A larger leak, instead, indicates that the seat is damaged. Continuous leakage may also occur at normal operating pressure which is considerably lower than the closing pressure of the valve. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it Rev.5 30/06/03...
ATTENTION! Move the lever at a safe distance from the valve; do this by using a piece of string tied to the hole of the lever. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it Rev.5 30/06/03 VALVOLE E STRUMENTAZIONE TEL.(02) 269912.1 - FAX.(02) 2692.2452...

To separate the disc from the rod catch the internal thread by turning the disc anti-clockwise. Do not change the position of the adjusting ring (3) unless repairs have to be made to the seat of the nozzle (2).

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.

If the resilient gaskets of the disc are marked, hollowed or in any way deteriorated, replace them by means of a simple and clear operation (See details in Figs. 1 and 4). IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it...

It is therefore essential to check and service the surface of the spring in order to keep the safety valve in perfect working order. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it Rev.5 30/06/03...
21.2 Assembly valves without lifting lever by carrying out the operations indicated in paragraphs 20.2.3 pos.1 and 2 in reverse order. 21.3 Checking the gaskets. When reassembling, check the existing gaskets are in perfect working order and replace if necessary. IMI0022E.doc CARRARO S.R.L. 20090 SEGRATE (MI)- via E.Fermi E-MAIL: info@carrarovalvole.it Rev.5 30/06/03 VALVOLE E STRUMENTAZIONE TEL.(02) 269912.1 - FAX.(02) 2692.2452...
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.
