5 Maintenance
Study the instructions carefully.
The items refer to the parts list and service kits section.
Handle scrap correctly.
Always use Alfa Laval genuine spare parts. Replace seals if necessary.
Repairing of actuator:
- The actuator is maintenance-free but repairable.
- If repair is required, replacing all actuator rubber seals is recommended.
- Lubricate seals with Klüberplex BE31.
- To avoid possible black remains on pos. 1 and 29, Alfa Laval recommends Klüber Paraliq GTE703 (white) for these two
positions.
Pre-use check
1. Supply compressed air to AC1, AC2 and AC3 one by one.
