7.1 General safety instructions
Prior to any inspection and maintenance work to be performed
on the valve or mounted parts and attachments, the pressurized
pipeline must be shut off, the pressure must be relieved and the
system must be secured against unintentional switching on. De-
pending on the kind and criticality of the medium or fluid con-
veyed, all the required safety regulations must be complied with!
Upon completion of the maintenance work and prior to resuming
operation, all connections must be checked for proper fastening
and leak-freeness. The individual steps as stated under Section 5
need to be performed.
Please note, a plunger valve is not self-locking. Therefore neither
the drive nor the gear must be dismantled while the valve is pres-
surised. This section also applies when the valve is completely
dismantled.
7.2 Inspection and actuation intervals
The leak-freeness, smooth operation and corrosion protection of
the valve should be checked at least once per year (DVGW Tech-
nical Rules W 392).
Under extreme operating conditions, inspection needs to be done
at shorter intervals.
The body seals can be replaced, if required, depending on the
type of fluid conveyed.
7.3 Maintenance and replacement of parts
The spare parts needed can be found in the spare parts list in
chapter “7.3.1 Design”.
