  • Page 21: Safety Air Exhaust/Installation Position

    Description 3.1.7 Safety Air Exhaust/Installation Position To provide protection against excess pressure which can build up in the inside of the control top, a vent plug E2 is fitted in the base. In operating mode, the exhaust air from the lifting actuators is discharged via this vent plug. In the unlikely event of a damaged solenoid valve or in case of sealing problems, pressure relief is ensured.
  • Page 22: Transport And Storage

    Transport and storage Storage conditions Transport and storage Storage conditions You must first dry and preserve the control top to prevent damage if the control top is exposed to temperatures ≤ 0°C during transport or storage. Hint! We recommend that the valve should be stored at a temperature of ≥ 5 °C for a period of 24 hours prior to any handling (disassembling the housings / activation of actuators) so that any ice crystals formed by condensation water can melt.

  • Page 76: Test Procedure 1

    Start-up Test procedure for Tuchenhagen PMO valves type M / 2.0 The closed position of the upper seat is detected by proximity switch S3 that is installed externally on the lantern. The correct setting of this proximity switch for detecting the closed position of the upper seat is described in detail in the operating instructions of the M/2.0 valve and in Section 7.6, Page 73.
  • Page 77 Start-up pump or the source generating the cleaning solution pressure must switch off automatically. Hint! Please note that test procedure 2 has to be performed with great care. There is a danger of cleaning solution mixing with product if the control system interlocks are not working correctly.

    If the tolerance is not set in accordance with the intended purpose, this can result in malfunctions of the valve. GEA Tuchenhagen will not accept any liability for damage resulting from improper setting: the risk lies entirely with the operator of the facility.
  • Page 79 This allows user-specific process sequences to be optimally set. For the reliable monitoring of the valve seat seal GEA Tuchenhagen recommends the factory setting without signal attenuation. GEA Tuchenhagen will not accept any liability for damage resulting from the use of signal attenuation.
