The maximum continuous temperature that the valve can operate at is
determined by the temperature element fitted to the temperature
regulation part of the valve. This information is contained within the
specification section of this manual, also contained in this section is the
absolute maximum temperature that the regulated fluid can be allowed
to rise to before damaging the temperature regulating elements.
Fluid temperatures in the system where the valve is operating should be
continuously monitored and a protective shutdown system is to be
activated when the temperatures are outside of normal operating limits.
The maximum internal pressure that this valve is permitted to work at is
contained within the specification section of this manual.
The conditions for a safe installation and commissioning of this valve are
contained in the installation section of this manual.
The valve must be maintained in accordance with the maintenance
section of this manual and between maintenance periods should be kept
clean and the paintwork kept in good condition and touched up when
necessary to prevent rusting of the external steel parts of the valve.
4.3 Machinery Directive
The Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC is applicable to all assemblies fitted
with or intended to be fitted with a drive system other than directly
applied human or animal effort, consisting of linked parts or
components, at least one of which moves and which are joined together
for a specific application.
The Model B Valves supplied by AMOT are classified as Partly Completed
Machinery. Partly Completed Machinery is only intended to be
incorporated into or assembled with other machinery or equipment
thereby forming Machinery.
The Model B Valve must not be put into service until the Final Machinery
into which it is to be incorporated has been declared in conformity with
the relevant provisions of EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
