4.4. - Lubrication:
Twice a year, it is recommended to remove the protection cap (12) and fill up the stem
protector (15) halfway with a calcium-based grease with the following characteristics:
highly water resistant, low ash content, and excellent adherence.
5.- FLUSH PORTS
The valves come fitted with flush ports (14) to allow connection to a cleaning system to flush
the bonnet with water or air. The ports are plugged with threaded metal plugs. These can be
removed for connection to a cleaning system, or for flushing the bonnet in the event of a
blockage.
6.- STORAGE
For long periods it is recommended to store the valves in a well-ventilated room. Valves
should not be exposed to temperatures higher than 30ºC, as some soft seal materials can be
damaged when exposed to higher temperatures.
If outdoor storage cannot be avoided, cover the valve and protect it from sources of heat or
direct sunlight. Provide good ventilation to avoid moisture.
