Safety Guidelines
•
Adjustment of pressure setting and repair operations
may only be carried out by the manufacturer. Under no
circumstances shall the safety valve be disasembled
•
The product must not be used in a damaged condition
and must be installed according to regulations, with
special regard to safety. Installation must be in
accordance with these instructions. It is essential that
any faults which may influence safety be rectified
immediately
•
Safety valves of the type S245 are exclusively for the

3.1 Installation Guidelines
•
Safety valves for pressurised air should be positioned
vertically, facing upwards in the pipeline or on a
pressure vessel. Other installation positions on
request
•
Connections through all pipe, fittings and
nonreclosing pressure relief devices (if installed)
between a pressure vessel and its safety valve shall
have at least the area of the safety valve inlet
Compressed air. Non-toxic,
non-corrosive and non
inflammable gases which
may be discharged to
atmosphere.
Not suitable for oxygen and
steam.

•
The characteristics of the upstream system shall be
such that the pressure drop will not reduce the
relieving capacity below that required or adversely
affect the proper operation of the safety valve
•
The opening in the vessel wall shall be designed to
provide unobstructed flow between the vessel and its
safety valve
•
There shall be no intervening stop valves between the
vessel and its safety valves
•
A set pressure function test should be carried out at
least once per year. The detailed test procedure is
determined by the user
•
Requires regular maintenance in accordance with
EN 806-5
3.2 Assembly instructions
1.
Visually inspect the cap, thread and plug for damage.
• A damaged valve must not be fitted.
2.
Seal the valve with hemp, sealing tape or a copper
gasket.
3.
Screw the valve in tight using a suitable wrench and
avoid damaging the valve.

Commissioning
1.
Turn the adjusting knob clockwise until it tightens.
The valve is now ready for service.
CAUTION!
If the installation is taken out of service for along
period, then the unit should be turned to the venting
position. This is acheived by turning the adjusting
knob 2 turns anticlockwise.
5
Maintenance
Ensure dirt does not build up around the discharge area of the
safety valve.
6
Function Tests
The intervals for function checks of the safety valves must be
fixed by the operator of the installation under consideration of
the local requirements for pressure tanks (at least once a year
according to the recommendation of the manufacturer). The
facility operator should ensure that the function tests are
carried out regularly by an authorized person.
