Cleaning valves
Warning of faulty operation
Refer to the exploded drawings in the appendix when
working on the unit.
Warning of faulty operation
–
Discharge and suction valves differ from each other!
Only take them apart one after each other, so that
you do not confuse the components!
–
Only use new components which fit your valve -
both in terms of shape and chemical resistance!
–
Recalibrate the pump after replacing a valve!
–
Using an Allen key or similar, insert it into the
smaller hole of the pressure connector and push the
valve inserts out of it.
A suction valve is constructed in almost the same way as a discharge
valve.
Please note, however, that:
n the two valve inserts are identical here.
n There is an additional spacer between the valve inserts.
n There is a shaped seal in the dosing head instead of an O-ring.
n The flow direction of the suction connector is the opposite to that of
the pressure connector.

With the PVT material version, the ball seat is inte‐
grated in the dosing head and so has to be cleaned
separately!
–
With the PVT material version, the discharge valve
is a double ball valve!
