THIS DOCUMENT PROVIDES THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR
THE INSTALLATION, USE AND MAINTENANCE OF THE
VALVE, THEREFORE IT IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF
THE VALVE ITSELF AND MUST BE READ CAREFULLY
BEFORE ANY USE AND KEPT WITH CARE.
STRICTLY COMPLY WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS
CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT IN VIEW OF A SAFE
AND EFFECTIVE USE OF THE VALVE.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS
MIGHT CAUSE EARLY FAULTS AND RESULT IN
SITUATIONS OF DANGER, IN ADDITION TO VOIDING
ANY WARRANTY.
1- GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1-
The S1510 safety valve
is a manually-
adjustable, pressure-operated device which, according to its
setting, releases the excess of water when the pressure
inside the pump/system exceeds the adjusted value, thus
reducing the pressure. The normal working conditions can
be restored by turning off and then restarting the system.
The valve has been designed to protect positive-
displacement pumps or components (such as containers
and pipes) of high pressure water hydraulic systems up to
category II.
1.2- Since the S1510 valve is used in connection with a
high pressure water pump/system, which shall be called
hereafter only “system”, installation and use must be suited
to the type of system used and comply with the safety
Regulations in force in the Country where the valve is used.
1.3- Before installing and using the valve for the first time,
we suggest you check that it is undamaged and make sure
that the rated features correspond to the required ones. If
this is not the case, do not use the valve and contact the
after-sales service of Interpump Group for information.
1.4- Before using the valve, make sure that the system the
valve is used with is certified to comply with the relevant
Directives and/or Regulations.
2- PACKAGE
2.1- Packages must be handled in compliance with the
instructions stated on the packages themselves and/or
provided by the manufacturer.
2.2- In case the valve is not used immediately, it must be
stored in its integral package and placed in areas which are
not exposed to the weather and protected from excessive
humidity and from direct sunlight. Moreover, it is advisable
to place wooden pallets or other types of pallets between
the package and the floor, in order to prevent the direct
contact with the ground.
2.3- The package components must be disposed of in
compliance with the relevant laws in force.
3- INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION:
3.1- The setting pressure (SP) is adjusted and fixed by
sealing by Interpump Group and cannot be changed.
The values of the setting pressure and suggested
maximum working pressure (WP) are stated on the
valve.
3.2- The maximum flow rate depends on the setting
pressure and ranges from 51.5 to 100 l/min. The exact
value is stated on the valve.
3.3- The setting pressure (SP) is the pressure at which the
valve opens, thus determining the maximum pressure value
that the system cannot exceed.
3.4- The installation must be made by qualified and
authorized staff only, who must have the required skills to
handle high pressure systems and be informed of the
operating and safety instructions contained in this
document.
3.5- The fastening and sealing system of the S1510 valve is
designed for Interpump Group pumps and/or products.
3.6- The seal of the G1/2 fitting is made by conical seal part
no. 083200210.
3.7- Before installing the valve, slightly lubricate the G1/2
thread with a grease specific for very high pressures (EP-
extreme pressure
) containing Graphite or Molybdenum,
then tighten the fitting by means of a dynamometric wrench
(70 Nm).
IMPORTANT: During use, never exceed the
maximum values of pressure, flow-rate and
temperature as stated in this document
and/or indicated on the valve.
IMPORTANT: In order to effectively protect
the system, we suggest that the valve is
installed close to the pump. Also make sure
of the absence of any on-off devices.
