4 Safety note for valves, certified to Clean Air Act (TA Luft)
On request, this valve can be supplied compliant with
the German Clean Air Code.
Certificate / Manufacturer Declaration Validity is
dependent on the operating instructions being read
and observed. In particular, servicing must be conducted at regular
intervals, and the bolted connections relevant for
tightness must be inspected and retightened if
necessary.
5 Transport, storage and disposal
It is imperative, for all transport work, to
observe generally accepted engineering
practice and the accident prevention
regulations.
The safety valve is supplied with flange caps.
Do not remove them until just before
installation. They protect the plastic surfaces
against dirt and mechanical damage.
Handle the goods being transported with care. During
transport the valve must be protected against impacts
and collisions.
Never transport the valve using the lifting lever
238.
See sectional drawing and details in Section 10.
Transport the valve upright in a box or on a pallet on a
soft surface and deposit gently on flat ground.
Directly after receipt of the goods, the consignment
must be checked for completeness and any in-transit
damage.
Do not damage epoxy-coating.
With the KSE/F and KSE-C/F 100/150 valves, a ring
bolt 908/1 is screwed into the lifting cap which
facilitates transport. It must be ensured that the ring
bolt lies on the axis of the discharge flange so that
equilibrium is guaranteed when the valve is lifted. See
View W in Section 10.4.
5.1 Transport securing for KSE/F
Safety vales with set pressures 0.5 bar are fitted at
the works with a transport fastening strap which holds
the stem in the axial direction and pre-vents damage
to the shut-off element as a result of the stem shaking
during transport. See Fig. 1.
Fig. 1
Remove the safety wire between the lifting lever 238
and one connection screw of the lifting cap 513 /body
100 prior to commissioning.
See Section 6.6 and Fig. 2.

5.2 Transport securing for KSE -C
The threaded rod is screwed through the inlet nozzle
into the plug. It is inserted through the central bore of
the flange cover and screwed against the inlet flange
with a wooden disc and a self-locking hex. nut. See
Fig. 3.
The flange cover can only be removed when the
transport securing screw has been removed. This
ensures that it is only possible to install the valve
when the stem locking device has been removed.
