2 Safety instructions
2.1 Intended use
The bunging valve is primarily intended to be used to hold the pressure of gaseous media in tanks
and containers consistently and to prevent overpressure's if the safety function is set.
2.2 General notes
NOTICE - observe the operating instructions
To avoid danger and damage, the fitting must be used in accordance with the safety instructions
and technical data contained in the operating instructions.
NOTICE
All data are in line with the current state of development. Subject to change as a result of tech-
nical progress.
2.3 General safety instructions
WARNING
Risk of injury by moving parts
Do not grab into the valve when the actuator is pressurized. Limbs can be crushing or amputating.
– Remove the control air line before dismantling.
– Ensure that the actuator is unpressurized.
WARNING
Risk of injury by outflowing medium
Dismantling the valve or valve assemblies from the plant can cause injuries.
– Medias flowing through the leakage drain outlet are to be drained off without splashing
into a discharge arrangement.
– Carry the disassembling only if when the plant has been rendered pressure-less and free
of liquid and gas.
WARNING
ATEX - Guidelines
If the valve or the plant is operated in a potentially explosive atmosphere, the valid ATEX directive of
the EC and the installation instructions in this operating manual must be observed.
CAUTION
Malfunction due to contamination
Internal or external dirt may impair the function of the fitting or the safety equipment.
ØTherefore the fitting must be operated in a way that protects it from external influences.
– The fitting must be cleaned internal and external at regular intervals.
– The fitting must be maintained at regular intervals.
– The fitting must be checked for its function at regular intervals.
CAUTION
Before starting the system, the entire pipeline system must be thoroughly cleaned.

INFORMATION
Recommendation for longer storage
We recommend regularly checking the product and the prevailing storage conditions during long
storage times.
• To avoid damage to seals and bearings,
– products up to DN 125 / OD 5 inch should be stored horizontally for maximum 6 months.
– products larger than DN 125 / 5 inch, should be stored in the upright position with the actu-
ator on top.
• Don't store any objects on the products.
• Protect the products for wetness, dust and dirt.
• The product should be stored in a dry and well ventilated room at a constant temperature (op-
timal indoor temperature: 25 C ±5; indoor humidity data 70% ±5%).

4 Function and operation
4.1 Description of function
Function: Gas reclaim
If the tank atmosphere (e.g. CO2 reclaim) is reclaimed via the cleaning fitting, the tank dome fixture
is equipped with a non-return bypass through which the gas can dissipate. This bypass is closed
during the cleaning procedure.
Function: Gas feeding
The gas can also be fed (e.g. CO2 overlay) via the cleaning fitting. When rotating cleaning units are
used, steps must be taken to ensure that the gas stream is not fed into the tank via the spray pipe.
The bypass may have to be opened during the gas reclaim.
Function: Pressure relief safeguard
A directly loaded pressure relief valve is used as a safeguard when the rated system pressure is ex-
ceeded. The relief valve is connected directly with the tank dome fixture. The relief valve is de-
signed and/or selected based on individually specified criteria for the system to be safeguarded.
Function: Vacuum relief safeguard
A directly loaded vacuum valve is used as a safeguard when the actual pressure drops below the
rated system pressure. The vacuum valve is connected directly with the tank dome fixture. The re-
lief valve is designed and/or selected based on individually specified criteria for the system to be
safeguarded.
Function: Tank cleaning
The tank dome fixture is equipped with an integrated cleaning mechanism (spray pipe) that essen-
tially feeds the cleaning agent to the tank cleaning unit. The interior surface of the tank dome fix-
ture is also cleaned with additional cleaning units that are fed by the cleaning mechanism.

5 Commissioning, service and maintenance
5.1 Commissioning
5.1.1 Installation instructions
Fitting position
The fitting is to be installed vertically. Liquid must be able to flow freely out of the housing.
5.1.2 General welding guidelines
Sealing elements integrated in weld components must generally be removed prior to welding. To
prevent damage, welding should be undertaken by certified personnel (EN ISO 9606-1). Use the TIG
(Tungsten Inert Gas) welding process.
CAUTION
Damage and injuries due to high temperature supply
To avoid a distortion of the components, all welding parts must be welded to stress-relieved.
Allow all components to cool before assembling.
NOTICE
Damage due to impurities
Impurities can cause damage to the seals and seals area.
Clean inside areas prior to assembly.
5.1.3 ATEX - Guidelines
For valves or plants/installations that are operated in the ATEX area, sufficient bonding (grounding)
must be ensured (see valid ATEX Guidelines EG).
5.2 Service
RECOMMENDATION
Replacement of seals
To achieve optimal maintenance cycles, the following points must be observed!
– When replacement of seals, all product-contacting seals should be replaced.
– Only original spare parts may be installed.
Maintenance interval
The maintenance intervals depend on the operating conditions "temperature, temperature-intervals,
medium, cleaning medium, pressure and opening frequency". We recommend replacing the seals 1-
year cycle. The user, however should establish appropriate maintenance intervals according to the
condition of the seals.
