7.1.3 Bellows seal design
If the stem leaks the bellows seal (pos. 20.3) is defective. The leak can initially be stopped
by tightening the screw joint (pos. 20.17) respectively the sleeve nut (pos. 20.16).
Stem and bellows (pos. 20.3) can only be replaced together.
Replacement of bellows seal:
- Remove actuator. (Refer to operating instructions for actuator!)
- Slacken screw joint (pos. 20.17) respectively sleeve nut
(pos. 20.16) by about one turn.
- Unscrew the bottom seat ring (pos. 2) (refer to point 7.2) -
with diverting plug version (Fig. 18, Fig. 19) not necessary.
- Unscrew hexagon nut (pos. 4 or pos. 60), (holding against spanner face).
- Remove plug (pos. 3 or 31).
