concerning pressure equipment and that they meet the requirements pertaining to valves as
states in this directive.
The CE-emblem on the valve refers to this accordance (as per the directive on pressure

valves is prohibited until conformity of the entire system into which the ball valves have been
installed is established according to one of the above mentioned EC-Directives.
Modifications on the ball valves which have an effect on the given technical specifications and
the intended use render this declaration of conformity null and void. Additional information is
