5 ASSEMBLY, CONNECTIONS AND FIRST COMMISSIONING
Risk of damage to components!
Assembly, connections and first commissioning should be performed by qualified
personnel with relevant experience. Errors could lead to dangerous situations and
result in considerable material damage.
According to the ATEX 137 guideline and the regulations on safe operation, the
operator must ensure a safe working environment.
It is forbidden to modify the construction or to carry out welding work on the PTS
system without prior consent of the manufacturer as well as to increase the power
supply to the system.
5.1 MECHANICAL ASSEMBLY
The equipment doesn’t require any specific assembly. Nevertheless, some verification is
necessary:
- All screws and all nuts are properly tightened on the PTS system;
- The bolt connection is tightened according to the torque required by the maximum
pressure of the system.
In most cases, the PTS system is directly mounted on your equipment. Your connecting flange
must therefore correspond to the flange size of the PTS chamber which is given by the outlet
valve V2 (see table with technical data). The PTS connecting flanges correspond usually to DIN
PN 10 or ANSI 150 standards. The flange type must be specified in the order of your PTS system.
The types and dimensions of the various connections are given in the assembly drawing included
in the technical documentation.
5.2 INSTALLATION
1) Install the outlet valve V2 on the connecting flange of your installation. The valve actuator
can be positioned differently according to the space available and the accessibility of the
system;
2) Fix the butterfly valve between the PTS chamber and the equipment flange. The orientation
of the chamber is determined by the position of the inlet tube;
The butterfly valves supplied with the PTS system are tight when correctly mounted
and, therefore, do not require any supplementary gaskets.
