for Type EF 1112 as Flow Control Unit ZR, PN 25 1.0 Safety instructions 1.1 Proper use Any improper use, intervention in the design and deviation from the design data automatically lead to termination of the warranty. The float-controlled condensate trap is designed for the discharge of condensate from steam, compressed air and pressure gas systems. Any other use is not permissible. The manufacturer is not liable for dam age resulting from any other use. The user or operator bears the risk in this case. This also applies analogously to incorrect assembly, startup, use and maintenance. 1.2 Warnings and symbols There is a risk of personal injury due to escaping operating medium as well as because of pressure, temperature and weight. Failure to comply with these warnings may lead to accidents. Follow the instructions in this operating manual. The operator must ensure that this operating manual and, if necessary, other relevant documents are available on site. Only trained or instructed personnel may be assigned to handling this equipment. Any mode of operation that may impair safety must be avoided. 2.0 General description and use Design of the condensate trap 1 Housing cover 2 Housing gasket 3 Housing with connections 5 Set of screws with nuts 7 Float control 8 Supporting structure with rotary slide valve 9 Float with fork 10 Bush 11 Set of Seals 12 Sight glass 13 Set of screws with nuts 14 RWG-Frame 16 Control screw 17 RWG-Seals Fig.1 2.2 Identification, operating limits on rating plate or housing

2.3 Functional limit of standard float control (PMO in bar g): According to Fig. 2 Fig.2 2.4 Performance: According to Works Standard-Sheet / RIFOX 2.5 Installation: According to Fig. 2 2.6 Functional limit of standard float control Cross-Section Max- line pressure in bar ü Dimension Z mm 20/190 12 appr.110 20/340 8 appr.110 SQ/SK Spec. design acc. to operating data 2.7 Flow control unit: Function / gas compensation In the lower float position the supply flow is open and closed in upper position. When reaching a lower tank level the float control unit opens. The addition to the tank is determined by the dimension Z. To allow a free rising and failing of the tank level existing in the flow control unit, a pressure compensation line has to be installed (as shown in figure 2). 3.0 Assembly 3.1 Fitting Remove protective caps from inlet and outlet. Fitting position according to Fig. 1 and 2 Flow direction according to the arrow provided on the rating plate 4.0 Maintenance / Inspection 4.1 Opening the flow control unit an d dismantling the float control 1. The condensate trap must be depressurized 2. Remove the flow control unit completely 3. Loosen hexagon nuts (5.) evenly crosswise, take off cover (1). 4. Loosen support screw (10) and unscrew it completely

Punch mark Notch Fig.3 4.2 Disassembling and cleaning the float control (Fig.3) 1. After removing the cotter pin (i), the rotary valve (d) is simply pulled out to the side. 2. Clean the parts using, for example, benzine. 3. Check the rotary valve (d) for wear along the sealing edge. If wear is detected, the support body (c) together with the rotary valve (d) must be replaced. A precise leak test must be carried out by Rifox. 4. During assembly ensure that the notch in the rotary valve (d) points to the punch mark on the support body (c) and the cotter pin (i) is inserted and secured again carefully. 5. The float must be able to move up and down without resistance. 4.3 Installing the control and assembling 1. The complete float control is inserted into the conical Housing seat with the support body (8). Ensure here that the pipe (7) shows upward. 2. The support body (8) is fixed in bush (10) by screwing with a tightening torque approx. 50 Nm. 3. Check the housing gasket (2) and replace necessary. 4. Assembly of housing as shown in figure 1 and acc. to paragraph 3. 5. Tighten housing bolts crosswise. Tighten torque: 70 Nm. 4.4 Care and maintenance, spare parts In the case of a great risk of dirt accumulation, the housing should be rinsed thoroughly from time to time, but while depressurized. If necessary, the float control should also be checked according section 4.2. In most cases the float control usually does not require special care. Maintenance primarily depends on the wear resistance of the valve seal. See sections 4.1 and 4.2 in this connection. Spare parts: Only genuine spare pa rts may be used.
