Valve with Detachable Pipe Connection Elements
Installation and Commissioning
Notes on Installation
Valve types L_HC/L_HL are installed in suspended position, valve types L_SC/LSL in
standing position. Care must be taken to ensure that the valve housing, the pipe system
and the leakage cavity can drain properly.
To prevent damage, make sure that
•
the valve is installed in the pipe system free of tension and
•
no foreign materials (e.g. tools, bolts, lubricants) are left in the system.
Control Module
If external valves are connected to a control module with several solenoid valves, make
sure that the air supply pressure in the main actuator does not fall below the operating
point.

Therefore, before releasing any pipe connections or clamp joint: drain the pipe and,
if necessary, clean or rinse it.
Separate the pipe section in which the valve is to be fitted from the rest of the piping
system to prevent product entering again.
Carry out the following steps:
Fit valves with detachable pipe connection elements – using suitable connection
fittings – directly into the pipe system.
