12.13 Corrosion protection
Moving parts and parts important to the
operating of the valve must not be impaired in
their motion, e.g. the blowing-off chamber.
The spindle guide must not be varnished.
The supplementary loading system must not
E
be coated with protective paint (refer also to
section 15).
12.14 Maintenance
Safety valves may only be serviced by skilled
staff.
Maintenance intervals cannot be specified by
LESER as they depend on many factors:
•
Corrosive, aggressive and abrasive media
lead to rapid wear and require shorter
maintenance intervals
•
Frequent
maintenance intervals
•
Maintenance intervals have to be agreed
between the operator, the inspector and
the manufacturer. Inspections must be
carried out at the time of the regular
external and internal checks of the
pressure equipment.
12.15 Identification of safety valves
Before
documentation must be checked in order to
ensure that the correct valve has been
selected for the assembly.
12.16 Lever safety valves
The set pressure of lever safety valves is
defined by the mass and the position of the
loading weights. It is not allowed to change
them.
No additional loading weights must be added.
The lever must not be used for suspending
any parts, e.g. for hanging clothes on.
13 Setting instructions for spring loaded
safety valves
The following operating instructions only apply
to valves without additional equipment. If there
is
additional
dampers, proximity switches, bellows, ...)
