2 Safety

2.1 Intended use

The double-seat valve D is used for the mix-proof separation of incompatible

media at flow path intersections in pipe systems.

The medium should preferably flow in the opening direction of the valve disc to

avoid pipe hammers when the valve is opened or closed.

If the valve is used in the opposite direction (valve closing), a damping cylinder

can be used to avoid pressure drops.

Do not install the valve in spring-opening, as this will open when there is a current

or air failure and leads to product mixing.

In a closed pipe system, hydraulic pressure build-up may occur when the valve

switches and result in seal damage.

Hint!

The manufacturer will not accept any liability for damage resulting

from any use of the valve which is not in accordance with the

designated use of the valve. The risk is borne solely by the operating

company.

2.1.1 Requirements for operation

The prerequisite for reliable and safe operation of the component is proper

transportation and storage as well as professional installation and assembly.

Operating the unit within the limits of its designated use also involves adhering to

the operating, inspection and maintenance instructions.

2.1.2 Pressure equipment directive

The component is a piece of pressure equipment (without safety function) in the

sense of the pressure equipment directive 2014/68/EU. Classified according to

Annex II in category 1.

According to the scope of directive 2014/34/EC, article 1, paragraph 2, f, the

exception of the directive applies, due to conformity with the machine directive

2006/42/EU.

The nominal diameters smaller than DN 25 are subject to article 4, paragraph 3

of the Pressure Equipment Directive which specifies sound engineering practice.

Nominal diameters ≥ IPS 4“; DN 125 valid for the fluid group II.

In the event of any deviations, GEA Tuchenhagen GmbH will supply a specific

Declaration of Conformity.

2.1.3 ATEX directive

In areas with an explosive atmosphere, only valves suitable for use in such areas

may be used.

Refer to and observe the additional operating instructions “ATEX version valves”.

For details regarding the marking of valves for potentially hazardous areas also

refer to the additional operating instructions “ATEX version valves”.

Safety

Intended use

430BAL008360EN_5

07.02.2022 9

If these valves are used in areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere, you

must absolutely comply with directive 2014/34/EC with respect to all ignition

hazards.

2.1.4 Improper operating conditions

The operational safety of the component can not be guaranteed under improper

operating conditions. Therefore avoid improper operating conditions.

The operation of the component is not permitted if:

•Persons or objects are in the danger zone.

•Safety devices are not working or were removed.

•Malfunctions have been detected on the component.

•Damage to the component has been detected.

•Maintenance intervals have been exceeded.

2.2 Operator’s Duty of Care

The operating company of the component has a special responsibility for the

proper and safe handling of the component within their company. Only use the

component when it is in perfect operating condition in order to prevent danger to

persons and property.

This operating manual contains information that you and your employees need

for safe operation over the life of the component. Be sure to read these Operating

Instructions carefully and ensure that the measures described here are observed.

entire area surrounding the component.

•Personnel must wear suitable work clothing and personal protective

equipment. As the operating company must ensure that work clothing and

personal protective equipment are used.

•Inform personnel regarding any properties of the product which might pose a

health risk and the preventative measures to be taken.

•Have a qualified first-aid representative on call during the operation. This

person must be able to initiate any necessary first-aid measures in case of an

emergency.

•Clearly define procedures, competences and responsibilities for those

working in the area of the component. Everybody must know what to do in

case of an emergency. Instruct the staff in this respect at regular intervals.
