installed on the product are all fastened securely.

(2) In case of model AF-7 (lever type), raise the fluid pressure to 75% of the set pressure or

higher, raise the lever, and check to see that the fluid blows out. In case of type AF-7M
(closed type), raise the fluid pressure to the set pressure, and confirm that the product
operates.

Please contact us if you notice anything abnormal.

8.3  Periodic inspection

Implement various voluntary inspections according to the laws. If you are a general user, please

side.

Review and change the piping layout.

Specifications of the prod-
uct and conditions for usa-
ge do not coincide.

Check the set pressure printed on the
nameplate. Exchange the product if the
conditions for usage do not coincide.

The pressure gauge does
not work properly

Calibrate or exchange the pressure gauge.

Operates at pressures

lower than the set pre-
ssure.

Changes occurred in the

set pressure of the prod-
uct.

The readjustment of set pressure is needed.
Please contact us.

Specifications of the safety
valve and conditions for
usage do not coincide.

Check the set pressure printed on the
nameplate. Exchange the product if the
usage conditions do not coincide.

The pressure gauge does
not work properly

Calibrate or exchange the pressure gauge.

Changes occurred in the

set pressure of the safety
