Safety instructions and measures
Control valves with the Type3251-AM Valve meet the following requirements:
− European Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU
− European Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
Valves with a CE marking and/or UKCA marking have a declaration of conformity, which
includes information about the applied conformity assessment procedure. The 'Certicates'
chapter contains this declaration of conformity.
According to the ignition hazard assessment performed in accordance with Clause5.2 of
ISO80079-36, the non-electrical control valves do not have their own potential ignition
source even in the rare incident of an operating fault. As a result, they do not fall within the
scope of Directive 2014/34/EU.
Î For connection to the equipotential bonding system, observe the requirements specied in
Clause6.4 of EN60079-14 (VDE0165-1).
