2. Special operating hints
2.1. Opening the safety shut-off unit (SSV)
Our leaflet 720.00 gives full information with technical data, different versions, and dimensions of the complete safety
shut-off valve type RMG 720.
Our brochure "General Operating Instructions for Gas Pressure Regulators and Safety Devices" will be useful to fit
the valve into the line, put it into service and find faults that might disturb its operation.
The construction, set-up, supervision and maintenance of gas pressure regulating stations are subject to special
national technical rules which should be strictly observed, for example those given by the German DVGW Work-
sheets G 490, G 491, and G 495.
The frequency of periodical maintenance to be foreseen for the safety shut-off unit RMG 673 should be determined
according to the prevailing service conditions and the type and composition of the gaseous medium. We, therefore,
obstain from imposing any fixed intervals. In Germany please refer to the recommendations given by the DVGW
Worksheet G 495 on "Gas Pressure Regulating Stations and Metering Stations for High Gas Volumes - Supervision
and Maintenance".
For maintenance all parts are to be cleaned and subjected to a thorough visual inspection. A visual inspection should
not be omitted when the course of operation or performance tests have shown lack of response accuracy.
Particular care should be given to the checking of sealings and diaphragms, as well as all carrying and movable parts.
Damaged parts should be replaced by new ones.
The item numbers referred to in the maintenance instructions are identical with those of the spare parts drawings and
spare parts lists.
We recommend to keep all parts that are specially marked "W" in the spare parts lists in stock for prompt maintenance
availability.
The SAV is provided with underpressure shut-off release. Re-engagement is possible only after the pressure pre-
vailing at the measuring point comes up to the service pressure p
a
. The pressure compensation necessary for re-
opening is automatically effected by the pressure compensating valve integrated in the valve plate.
