5.8 Rebuilding the Static Valve

Leaking from the source needle into the collection vessel during the static cycle

indicates that the static valve is worn and must be rebuilt. The rebuild procedure

consists of replacing a few parts (an O-ring, a filter, and two seals) and then

cleaning the inside of the valve body.

Before proceeding, check that the following kits are on hand. The kits contain the

replacement parts and special tools required to rebuild the valve.

• Order a Static Valve Repair Kit (P/N 068115) each time the valve requires

rebuilding.

• Order a Static Valve Tool Kit (P/N 068116) only the first time the valve

requires rebuilding. Figure 5-19

illustrates each tool.
