0.6 - INSTALLATION OF SOLENOID VALVES AND CARTRIDGE VALVES
0.6.1 - Installation
1. Remove packaging and protective coverings from solenoid valve bodies and cartridge valves only at the moment of installa-
tion, so as to minimize the risk of contamination.
2. Lubricate all O-rings tted to solenoid valves and valve cartridges using a suitable mineral oil or grease compatible with AK-
ROS oil.
Contamination of lubricating uid must be no higher than level 18/15, as specied in ISO 4406.
For further information on contamination, refer to SAME specication 92349
Containers of lubricating uids must be closed and tted with the specic dispensing nozzle.
The use of open containers or brushes is not permissible.
3. Screw the solenoid valves and cartridge valves into the relative seats by hand, engaging at least one turn of the thread.
Power drivers must not be used at this stage.
4. Complete the tightening operation, applying torques as specied in the table of headings 3 and 4.
