2. General product information
2.1 General description
These instructions apply to the DP17 and most derivatives including the DP17E, DP17G,
DP17R, DP17Y and DP27G.
The instructions primarily relate to the use of the DP17 on steam but can be used as a guide
when the valve is used on compressed air.
For compressed air the DP17G and DP27G are recommended which have a nitrile seal for
both the main valve and pilot valve.
Note: For additional information see the relevant Technical Information Sheets.
