Notes

Engineering In open circuits, there is a risk of valve plug seizing caused by scale deposits. Thus,
use only the most powerful actuator SKB... for these applications. Additionally, periodic
actuation (twice or three times per week) must be planned.
With closed and open circuits always use a strainer upstream of the valve to increase .
the valve's functional safety. .

For media below 0 °C, use the electric ASZ6.5 stem heating element to prevent the
valve stem from freezing in the sealing gland. For safety reasons, the stem heating
element has been designed for AC 24 V / 30 W operating voltage.

Mounting Both valve and actuator can easily be assembled at the mounting location. Neither
special tools nor adjustments are required.
The valve is supplied with Mounting Instructions 4 319 9563 0.

.
Maintenance .
.
VXG41... valves require no maintenance.

Warning When doing service work on the valve / actuator:

• Deactivate the pump and turn off the power supply
• Close the shuttoff valves
• Fully reduce the pressure in the piping system and allow pipes to completely cool
down
If necessary, disconnect the electrical wires.

Before putting the valve into operation again, make certain the actuator is correctly .
fitted. .

Stem sealing gland • The glands can be exchanged without removing the valve, provided the pipes are
depressurized and cooled off and the stem surface is unharmed, refer to «Order».
• If the stem is damaged in the gland range, replace the entire stem-plug-unit.

Contact your local office or branch.

.
Disposal Before disposal the valve must be dismantled and separated into its various constituent .
materials. .
.
Legislation may demand special handling of certain components, or it may be sensible .
from a ecological point of view. .
Current local legislation must be observed. .
