Service Contracts
To ensure your Rada/Mira products function correctly and give continued safe
performance Service Contracts can be undertaken (subject to site survey).
All Service Contract work is carried out by fully trained Rada/Mira Service Engineers
who carry a comprehensive range of genuine spare parts. For details on arranging
a Service Contract please contact Aftersales/Service.
Lubricants
Important!
If you need to lubricate the seals, use only a small amount of silicone-only
based lubricants on this product. Do not use oil-based or other lubricant types as these
may cause rapid deterioration of seals, (grease sachet is included in 'Service Pack').
Planned Maintenance
Important! For Type 3 Valves use the In-Service Tests given in the TMV3
Requirements Manual. In the absence of any other instruction or guidance on the
means of determining the appropriate frequency of in-service testing, the procedure
contained within this guide (taken from Annex F of D08) should be used.
For other commercial installations it is recommended that the correct blend setting
is checked every 6 months and that the In-Service Test procedure is followed every
12 months.
Maintenance Procedures
The Thermotap-3 is designed for minimal maintenance under conditions of normal
use. External surfaces may be wiped clean with a soft cloth, and if necessary, a mild
washing-up type detergent or soap solution can be used.
Warning:
many household and industrial cleaning products contain mild abrasives
and chemical concentrates, and should
not
be used on polished, chromed or plastic
surfaces.
Should an internal malfunction occur then this will probably require component
renewal. Components are precision-made, so care must be taken while servicing
to avoid damage.
When ordering spare parts, please state product type, i.e. Rada Thermotap-3 and
identify part name and number. A service pack is available, containing all the seals
and strainer screens that may be necessary for renewal during maintenance or
servicing. Refer to the section:
'Spare Parts'
.
If for any reason the tap cannot be fully shut off, it may be necessary to readjust the
lever shut off position. Refer to
Lever Shut Off Position
.
