Maintenance, User responsibility – Amico Medical Gas Check Valve with Extensions User Manual

Maintenance

1. If a problem should arise, do not disassemble the valve while the line is under pressure.

2. Repair kits are available, should the check valve need replacing.

Operation

1. No manual operation is required, of the check valve, once it is in the pipe line.

NOTE: Not recommended for use with reciprocating pumps and similar applications which

may induce repetitious vibrations. Low flow rates, which do not fully open the valve, may

result in undesirable noise and premature valve failure. Upstream flow disturbances, which

create turbulence, may also result in rapid wear. Therefore it is recommended that a minimum

of 10 diameters of straight pipe be provided between the check valve and any upstream flow

disturbances such as pumps, control valves, elbows, etc.

Caution

It is the installers and/or system designers responsibility to ensure that these valves

are installed in accordance with applicable and current NFPA/CSA Standards.
