General

These operating instructions apply to KSB rubber lined butterfly
valves (see section 6).
Design, manufacturing and testing of the KSB valves are subject to a
Quality Assurance System according to EN ISO 9001 and to the
European Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC (PED).
For a specific product configuration as an actuated valve, the
aggregate can be considered as a partly completed machine
according to the machinery directive 2006/42/EC and comply with the
requirements of the directive.
Correct installation is mandatory to ensure trouble free operation of
the valves.
The manufacturer cannot be made liable for these valves if operating
instructions are not being observed.
ATTENTION
The valves must not be operated outside the
permissible operating range. The limits are indicated on the name
plate or currently applicable type leaflet. The pressure-temperature
ratings, in particular, must not be exceeded. Operation of the valves
outside the above-mentioned conditions may result in overloads
which may damage the valves.
The type leaflets can be found at www.ksb.com – product catalogue.
Nonobservance of this warning may lead to personal injury or
property damage, e.g.:
-- Injury caused by escaping fluids (cold/hot, flammable or under
pressure)
-- Incorrect operation or destruction of the valve.
The descriptions and instructions in this manual refer to the standard
versions but also apply to the related variants.
These operating instructions do not take into consideration:
-- incidents which may occur during installation and operation.
-- the local safety regulations. lt is the user's responsibility to ensure
that these are also observed by the installation staff involved.
For actuated valves, the specified connection parameters and the
installation instructions -- including the operating manual for the
actuator -- must be observed.
ATTENTION
Handling a valve requires skilled and experienced
personnel.
The personnel in charge of operation and installation of this valve must
be aware of the interaction between the valve and the plant.
Operator's errors concerning the valve may have serious
consequences for the entire plant, e.g.:
-- fluid may escape
-- downtime of the plant/machine
-- adverse effect/reduction/increase of the efficiency/function of a
plant/machine.
For further questions or in case of damage to the valve, please contact
your KSB Sales Office.
For further questions and supplementary orders, please always state
the indications of the marking plate.
The specifications (operating data) of the valves are listed in the
technical documentation and type leaflet of the related valve (see also
section 6).
When returning valves to the manufacturer, please refer to section 5.

Safety

This manual contains basic instructions to be complied with during
operation. lt is therefore vital for the fitter and the operator/user to read

manual must always be available at the site where the valve is
installed.
lt is not enough to observe the general instructions listed in the section
"safety", the specific safety instructions listed in the other sections
should also be observed.

Safety instructions put forth in this instructions manual, the
nonobservance of which would involve the risk of personal injury, they
are specially marked with the general hazard symbol:
in accordance with ISO 3864--B.3.1.
or with the electric voltage warning sign:
In accordance with ISO 3864--B.3.6.
Safety instructions the nonobservance of which would involve hazard
to the valve and jeopardize its operation have been marked with the
word
ATTENTION
lnstructions directly attached to the valve, (e.g. nominal pressure)
must be complied with and maintained in a legible condition.
4.2.
Qualification of personnel and training
The personnel for operation, maintenance, Inspection and installation
must be adequately qualified for the work involved. The personnel
responsibility, competence and supervision must be clearly defined by

Danger or nonobservance of the safety
instructions
Nonobservance of the safety instructions may lead to personal injury
and danger for both the environment and the valve itself.
Nonobservance of these safety instructions will also forfeit the user's
warranty.
Such noncompliance could result in for example :
-- failure of essential functions of the valve/plant
-- hazard to people by electrical, mechanical or chemical effects
-- hazard to the environment due to leakage of hazardous substances
4.4.
Safety Consciousness
The safety instructions contained in this manual, the applicable
national accident prevention regulations and any of the user's own
