5. PRV OTS-45 INSTALLATION
The OTS 45 relief valve consists of 4 main elements:
1. Valve body section.
2. Nut.
3. Washer / washer with closing cap.
4. O-ring.
The valve parts are produced from Acetal Copolymer (1+2+3)
The seal/o-ring (4) is made of silicone rubber.
INSTALLATION:
When the nut (2) is in position inside the tube, the washer (3) is placed over the hole with the
o-ring (4) in the center.
Cutting hole in the fabric: 22 mm
IMPORTANT
The grip rings of the washer (3) must be placed towards the fabric.
The valve body (1) is screwed into the nut through the fabric by hand, before any tools are used. The
valve is tightened to the raft and finally by torque tool. Depending of the fabric –reinforcement can be
necessary. Check the color code of the valve for the right pressure.
TIGHTENING:
To tighten the valve use a 32 mm top spanner/torque tool.
Tightening torque: 6 –8 Nm

NOTE:
The valve must not be re-tightened after installation. If a leakage appears between the fabric and the
relief valve, the valve must be taken apart and reinstalled until tight.
IMPORTANT:
If using the closing cap, be careful the cap is not fitted to the valve during packing. The locked valve
may damage the raft during inflation.
CAUTION:
Do not separate the spring, washer and valve piston.
