▶ Important: Mount the correct diaphragm that suits the
valve (suitable for medium, medium concentration, tem-
perature and pressure). The diaphragm is a wearing part.
Check the technical condition and function of the dia-
phragm valve before commissioning and during the
whole term of use. Carry out checks regularly and de-
termine the check intervals in accordance with the con-
ditions of use and/or the regulatory codes and provi-
sions applicable for this application.
▶ Important: Incorrectly mounted diaphragm may cause
valve leakage / emission of medium. In this case remove
the diaphragm, check the complete valve and diaphragm
and reassemble again proceeding as described above.
