CONFORMITY
THE IMPORT-EXPORT OF
CONFLOW
PRODUCTS FROM ONE COUNTRY TO ANOTHER IS REGULATED

Before installing the valve, remove the plastic guards covering the flanges and the connection couplings.
ATTENTION
During commissioning of the valve or during operation, do not touch the body which could conduct heat
if the fluid used is at high temperature.
ATTENTION
During operation, do not touch the stem as it is in movement, it may be hot and could catch your finger
or clothing.
ATTENTION
During operation, do not touch the motor, the surface temperature of the motor could rise and therefore
could cause abrasion.
ATTENTION
Before starting any maintenance operations, ensure the valve is not pressurised and/or hot.
ATTENTION
Do not remove the descriptive label fastened to the yoke since it reports the serial number, data which
is indispensable for tracking the valve over time.
Please refer to this number for supply of spare parts
Do not remove the stroke label which is the main reference for valve calibration
ATTENTION
The electrical actuator must be handled solely and exclusively by competent and authorised staff
ATTENTION
Before removing the cover of the actuator, ensure the main power supply is disabled, preventing any
possible involuntary removal. The live areas must be isolated before starting to work.
ATTENTION
Ensure the actuator always works in optimal conditions, any damage or error and change of operating
characteristics, which may regard safety, must be notified.
Non-compliance with the main safety information, the standards in force and the assembly instructions can:
Cause danger for the safety of those carrying out manoeuvres or for third parties.
Damage the valve or adjacent objects.
Compromise the efficient operation of the valve.
2 - GENERAL ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
2.1
– ASSEMBLY ON THE SYSTEM (GENERAL NOTES)
Before assembling the valve, accurately clean the tubing with compressed air, water or another blowing fluid to eliminate foreign bodies,
welding waste and various dirt that could damage the sealing surfaces of the valve.
ATTENTION
Assemble the valve with the direction arrow imprinted on the body in the same direction as the tubing
fluid.
Assembly is however recommended of a “Y” filter (our “FY” series) on the tubing, upstream of the valve.
Assembly of the valve can be carried out in the vertical or horizontal position, see Figure 1, page 4. You are however advised to
assemble vertically to prevent wear of the trim due to the weight and relevant rubbing.
ATTENTION
It is forbidden to weigh the valve down with foreign objects. It is compulsory to protect the valve from
external stress.
ATTENTION
The PSL-AMS actuators can work at ambient temperatures between
– 20 / + 60 °C
. The operating modes correspond to DIN EN 60034:-1:S2 for the short cycle and S4 for the standard
operations. The degree of protection is IP65, IP67 on request, in compliance with standard EN 60529
ATTENTION
During installation of the valve, leave sufficient space to allow recover of the cover, see Fig.2
