KSG
12
Do not overheat KSG by welding or soldering work performed
on the system. Install KSG after completion of such welding or
soldering work.
Verify that the nominal pressure of KSG corresponds to the
planned value of the system.
Verify that the liquid in the system and the application area of
KSG are compatible.
Thoroughly flush the pipes prior to installing KSG. Impurities
such as weld beads, hemp or metal chips cause leaks of the
safety valve.
4.1
Mounting the device
The safety valve and the pressure gauge are mounted with an elastic
sealing system. If necessary, they can be rotated by up to 180° with-
out the connection becoming leaky.
1.
Mount KSG in such a way that the components are vertical.
2.
Mount KSG in such a way that the liquid can escape via the dis-
charge opening of the safety valve without obstructions.
3.
Mount KSG at the highest point of the heat generator or in its
immediate vicinity at the flow line. A connection line with a max-
imum length of 1 m and the size of the inlet cross section may
be installed between KSG and the heat generator.
4.
Mount KSG with the insulation shells supplied with the unit
(= heat insulation).
Discharge line of the safety valve
The discharge opening is designated by an arrow on the valve body.
WARNING
Injuries and hazard of scalding due to hot liquid escaping via
the discharge opening of the safety valve.
Install the discharge line in such a way as to avoid any damage
or injuries due to escaping liquid.
The discharge line must have a gradient; its cross section must
have at least the same cross section as that of the discharge
opening.
