Before starting maintenance, disconnect 
impulse connection (A) to make sure there is 
no gas under pressure in the pilot.
When maintenance operations are nished 
check the tightness with suds.
General Maintenance
Do not bend or otherwise damage stem (S) 
when disassembling and reassembling.
a. Remove impulse line (A) and make sure that controller 
is not latched by exerting a slight pressure on stem unit 
(key 41).
b. Loosen screws (key 29) and slide out the controller.
c. Remove cap (key 1), adjusting screw (key 2), ring nut 
(key 4), spring (key 5), spring holder (key 3) and spring 
(key 6).
d. Remove screws (key 27) nuts (key 25) and washers 
(key 26), take o cover (key 7).
e. Slide out diaphragm unit and remove spring (key 23).
f. In order to replace diaphragm (key 36), unscrew nuts 
(key 39 and 40) and disassemble the components. 
Check O-ring (key 34) and replace it if worn.
g. Check that plate unit (key 8) and lever (key 24) can move 
freely and are not worn, otherwise replace them together 
with pins (key 22 and 9).
h. Loosen balls holder (key 12) using the appropriate tool 
and check O-ring (key 11).
i. Remove the balls (key 12), the spring holder (key 13) and 
the spring (key 14). Clean with petrol and check surfaces 
if worn or scored, replace.
j. Unscrew guide (key 20) and check O-rings 
(key 18 and 19), replace if necessary.
Reassembling
Reassemble by reversing the above steps.
As you proceed, make sure that parts move freely and 
without friction.
In addition:
a. 
Lubricate all seals with Molykote 55 M or equivalent and be 
very careful not to damage them when reassembling.
b. Place the balls holder (key 10) on the special tool, grease 
it thoroughly to prevent balls from falling out and lodge 
the balls (key 12) in their seats. Hold the special tool in a 
vertical position and tighten the balls holder.
c. Adjust the position of balls holder (key 10) so that, with 
lever (key 24) held down at travel end, plate unit (key 8) 
moves freely and has a clearance of 0,2 to 0,3 mm.
d. Place the adjusting nut (key 40) back in its original 
position as shown in Figure 4.
e. Hold stem unit (key 41) slightly pressed to ensure proper 
tting of diaphragm (key 36). Mount cover (key 7) and 
check that stem unit (key 41) is duly centered.
f. Tighten cover screws (key 27) nuts (key 25) and washers 
(key 26) to ensure proper sealing.
g. Check that all movements are smooth and friction free.
h. Fit the mounting stem in order to prevent balls from falling 
out and to facilitate remounting of the controller on the 
sam-shut valve.
i. Remount the controller and secure it by means of screws 
(key 29).
Setting
a. Use ring nut (key 4) to completely load maximum 
pressure spring (key 5). Loosen adjusting screw (key 2) to 
completely relieve minimum pressure spring (key 6).
b. Disconnect impulse line (A).
c. Use a small pump or other appropriate means to raise 
pressure to normal operating level.
d. Relatch controller and allow pressure to drop to minimum 
pressure triggering level.
e. Using adjusting screw (key 2), slowly load minimum 
pressure spring (key 6) until actuator triggers.
f. Repeat steps c. and d. above, making any necessary 
adjustments in setting.
g. Bring pressure back to normal values.
h. Relatch controller and raise pressure until it reaches 
maximum pressure triggering level.
i. Using ring nut (key 4), slowly unload spring (key 5) until 
actuator triggers.
j Repeat steps g. and h. above, making any necessary 
adjustments in setting.
Whenever minimum or maximum 
pressure triggering is not required, omit 
corresponding steps.
It should be borne in mind that minimum 
pressure triggering can be eliminated by 
simply removing spring (key 6) and that 
maximum pressure triggering can be 
eliminated by fully loading spring (key 5).
SPARE PARTS
Spare parts storage shall be done by proper procedures 
according to national standard/rules to avoid over aging or 
any damage.
